in thread [SOLVED] Using Perlbrew with debian Perl packages like libdbd-mysql

Hey, I got a real hot tip for you. Quantum computer programmers are in short supply. RTFM and you'll be rolling in the money in just a few days, I'm sure. It'll be the best 65 bucks you ever spend.

The point is, a manual is only as good as the person's ability to understand what the manual is saying. You can't hit 90 mph fast balls or even 70 mph fast balls when you can barely hit singles playing for the little league. And that's about where I'm at.

$PM = "Perl Monk's";
$MCF = "Most Clueless Friar Abbot Bishop Pontiff Deacon Curate Priest";
$nysus = $PM . ' ' . $MCF;

    "The point is, a manual is only as good as the person's ability to understand what the manual is saying"

    With anything in life there are likely to be things you don't understand. If you read a manual, or anything and you don't understand a term or concept it's up to the reader to go and do the required work in order to understand. Practice and research.

      Look, I’m with you. Self sufficiency is a good thing. But if the answer to every problem is RTFM, what do we need SoPW for? And if there isn’t a manual, we could just direct people to go read the code. The answers are all there in the code if only people are willing to put in the effort, right?

      $PM = "Perl Monk's";
      $MCF = "Most Clueless Friar Abbot Bishop Pontiff Deacon Curate Priest";
      $nysus = $PM . ' ' . $MCF;

        By your own admission you didn't read the documentation. Sometimes the answer to the question is as straight forward as telling the person that they have to do something outlined in the documentation, which I linked to. Nobody claims the answer to "every problem is RTFM". Here I suggest you take the time to read the documentation in question, and learn the basics of the tools you're trying to use.

        Update: Which reminds me you'd already had all this pointed out to you the last time you asked.
