Subject: Re: ruby string slice/[] w/ range, weird end behavior (RANT)

Are replies to this group always like this?

someone blindly posts the doc without reading that I already posted
the doc or reading my example (like an implicit RTFM)
other folks automatically assume I'm a newb and respond in five
seconds without fully reading my post or thinking about their own post

do i need to be a kool kid or have a secret code word for this noise
to go away?

i've found the more niche ruby groups to be much more signal.. but
this didn't seem to fit into a niche
