I do not want to live in such a world. Helping others, especially when it is at little to no cost to you should be common sense to everyone.
I will strive towards making the world such a place, and I implore everyone, including you, to make the world a better place for everyone - including you.
Helping others learn when they are not willing to google, read, visit a library, etc, is called enabling, not helping. Helping those that try and get stuck is helping.
I did and after entering the field I had chosen after graduation, I quickly left. It wasn’t for me. What paid for school, however, was fixing computers, electronic word processors, and building and selling PC’s. Bought an Apollo system to learn Domain Aegis UNIX on and checked out every book on UNIX I could get my hands on. When Linux arrived, I got in at Linux 0.99pl13. I got a job and paid to continue my education. So yeah. When I started there wasn’t a community of enablers.
If what you’ve chosen to learn could help someone right in front of you, and they’re asking for help, you do not feel compelled to help them? I doubt that.
Depends on the topic. If enlightening them means I am enabling them to harm themselves, then no. Helping people waste time gaming and draw even more Steam users and their Windows crapware games towards tainting the purity of Linux is harming them and Linux, so no. No helping that.
No it’s not. There is no duty to anyone. Go to a library or book store and read what you want to learn.

Learn the difference.
Ah, the RTFM argument. So you didn’t go to school, did you? You picked up a book and just started educating yourself?
