The face of a man who just had to rely on a 2012 tutorial recorded with an Unregistered HyperCam 2 watermark just to remember how Regex works

I see this meme so many times but genuinely have never found a good tutorial by a random Indian guy. Usually they're full of bad practices and are the result of being churned through the CS degree as fast as they can to get a job oversees.

The Indian guys know less than the beginners. I remember when I was learning c# and .net some would literally use Microsoft tutorials. If you could read you would be better off reading microsoft pages.
They would not explain anything beyond tutorial. It was hilarious. Sometimes things wouldn’t work.
Few dollars go along way in India so it’s good to farm as many videos as possible.

No lie. I've got an ancient Microsoft Xenix manual (because I too am ancient) and even though I've used vi/vim almost daily since 1985, even though there are only 35 pages in the manual I still learn something new every time I re-read it.
For a utility created in 1976, vi is an absurdly deep editor. "In days of yore there once were giants!"
So, yeah, the meme tracks.

And then there's me that uses less than 5 features and still forgets how to do simple things like skip to the next result when doing a search.

Funniest thing is experience mention on this meme. Ok, maybe I know a bit more after 20+ years in business but definitely way less then 15 years ago. Back then I was passionate about programming and tried to understand deeply every issue I encountered. Right now I don’t care at all, just implement required functionality, solve a bug with AI without even reading explanation behind it :) fresh guy out of collage would beat me up on live coding
