Spoon feeding and Quickfix
I see a lot of posts requesting basic information on the working principles of simple engineering mechanisms. There are hundreds of sources on the net dealing with every such area with full academic rigour.
Are we becoming too lazy to spend quality time even on things relevant to us? I know that there are hundreds of CEans, who can do a search with their eyes closed to answer such queries. I am glad that this is not done.
One should use search engines like Google Scholar and sources like NPTEL, Khan Academy and not just google, bing, yahoo and such.
Am I cantankerous and unreasonable?
What do the senior CEans think?
