Unless your experience doesn't stumble across the corner cases. Nothing
can replace reading a good specification.
I meant that they should use hands-on experiences to augment their
reading, not to replace it.
I realize that programmers are nit-pickers (it's an occupational hazard)
and they assumed that leaving something out implies it will be ignored
altogether but people, unlike computers, have the amazing ability to
fill in the gaps. But to make you happy:
Everyone should compliment their reading with experimentation and their
experimentation with reading.
