SO for true beginners is like asking questions about 16th century French literature when the only french you know is "Je m'appelle Lloyd. Ou est la bibliotheque?". The problem is that beginners don't have the ability to actually know what they are searching for. Trying to ask "how do I do string interpolation in javascript?" means you have to know what string interpolation is in the first place. You're much more likely to get the title "var in text... HALP?!?" filled with details of an XY problem. While I sympathize with it, I'm not going to answer the Nx10th question about async loops. I remember those days, so I try to make it a policy to leave a comment whenever I flag those types of questions. However, trying to make SO "beginner friendly" is doing a disservice to the people who actually use it everyday as well as that person who finally figures out the terminology for what they were looking for in the first place. I can never remember `git rm -r --cached .` any time I change my .gitignore, but finding that is super easy only because "what is git" doesn't float to the top above it. I'm definitely not encouraging being an asshole, but it's a simple case of using the right tool for the job. SO isn't that tool when you're at that stage.
