Why engineers just ask here without searching first or looking up a textbook?
This is not about specific persons or plain cussedness on my part.
However, quite often questions are asked (mostly by fresh entrants who still retain some sanity), which should have been already answered in their curriculum, or in any standard text book or a Google (scholar) click away.
Is this out of a growing tendency to look for a quick fix, laziness or just not knowing how to get basic technical information. Yes, posting on CE is one way. Slightly unfair to the forum in my opinion.
This in spite of the various helpful pages on CE itself on this issue. It smacks of a lack of seriousness, which does not bode well for engineering in India.
Let me get out of the pulpit before I start a long sermon.
