Recently, I came upon an internet acronym I had not seen before,
UTFSE. It means use the (familiar) search engine. In this day and age
with Google being the standard repository of all knowledge, I think
this is somewhat of an unfair retort. I think it is safe to assume that
most of everyone I know is familiar with what Google is and what it can
do. So if I specifically choose NOT to use Google and ask a real human
being, I probably have a good reason for doing so.
By asking you directly, I am appealing to not only
your superior knowledge, but your valuable experience. Google does not
yet have the ability to replicate specific experience like the human
brain.
If someone asks you a question, don’t assume they’re being lazy, and don’t be rude.
