    I don’t think that’s a terrible way of getting started. Your subconscious will do the rest at some point, unless you’re really not interested at all (which isn’t a problem either). :)

      The real learning happens when you copy and paste something you shouldn’t and bork your system. That’s basically how I started.

        Me learning anything ever. Troubleshooting is the real learning phase.

          No offence, but I hope you don’t hold a high ranking government position, what with catastrophic error being the only way you learn 😁

              Same tbh. For the hassle to be worth it, you’d probably have to have either an extreme tolerance for bureaucracy and patience in general or exactly the kind of selfishly careless mentally that would mean that you should NEVER be allowed anywhere near the job…

            One would hope that all the learning mistakes happen earlier in the career before you could be trusted with something big like that.
