@myles stack overflow is soooo easy to take for granted. it has at once enabled my entire life and career and also somehow i never spent a single minute thinking about the site itself
@live my job involves hanging out on stack overflow searching for stuff all day long, i know nothing in reality heh
@sten0_SE @live @kodo I was just talking with a friend about this today who's brand new to programming. He was saying that he finds Stack Overflow useless because he just can't grok what the answers are talking about. And I took it completely for granted how much baseline knowledge was required for me to even be able to say "this is a garbage thread, move on" or "this long answer is worth sitting down for".
