If one learns the correct terminology in the first place they wouldn't have to learn the terms in the future. Besides, one might never get around to learning the proper terminology. In any case, the terms aren't difficult to understand at all.

It's a strange way of showing appreciation for his work. I would've expected something a whole lot different.

As
Zereo said, programming is all about reading your own code (as well as others') and reading any documentation that comes with software/source code.

...or throw your glass when you realise just how much information Bucky omitted from his tutorials. Bucky's tutorials alone are simply not enough to net one's self a job.

Yes, but Bucky's tutorials help people retain the "sub-standard" status, not remove it. His teaching style may be OK for a 10 year old, but for more serious programmers, Bucky's tutorials are too low of a grade to learn from.

You're generalising again and implying that all hobbyist programmers are sub-standard? This is simply not the case. Some hobbyist programmers are
probably better programmers than some working programmers, but choose not to follow a programming career path.
