People here are less bothered by you asking questions in order to learn,
and more bothered by your completely inconsiderate habit of asking
extremely bad questions that:

- waste the time of everyone providing FREE customer support here
- don't actually help you learn
- demonstrate that you're the wrong type of lazy, you're not trying to
  (learn to) be more efficient but rather to be less efficient, while
  distributing the cost of the inefficiency onto other people
