The amount of help available online to aspiring programmers is, in my opinion, profound.
I cannot even begin to describe the amount of gratitude I feel toward others in this field who spend their free time answering questions and in writing useful blog posts and tutorials; not to mention the scores of free ebooks available from their authors along with the numerous open source projects that are freely available to everyone everywhere to study or use.
I can only guess that the author was having a bad day when he/she wrote this post. But despite some nasty mannerisms here and there; it seems apparent that the online tech community is comprised of a lot of people willing to share helpful information with others; without reservation or any expectation of compensation (other than rep points, perhaps).
