I understand and I agree. I've always been one to dig in and learn the basics and now that's gotten difficult for me. So I'm cheating; getting just the information I need to do what I'm trying to do and not learn the why and how.
I'm a retired programmer. I began in the late 60's and early 70's, mostly as a systems programmer, writing drivers and patches and low level tools and occasionally applications. I stayed on that level till I retired nearly 20 years ago. Now I find it difficult to handle that sort of detail and new things come to me very slowly so this is how I can do it. The saving grace is that I don't have to do it now. I just enjoy fiddling from time to time.
