Each question should have discussion surrounding it, I don't think the StackOverflow mindset is the way to go about this, however. The discussion on each answer is shoved below in an unnested order which makes conversation almost impossible. StackOverflow works wonders for easy questions with finite answers, not dicussable "research-oriented" math questions.
- digitallogic 17y agoAgreed, which I find somewhat of a paradox. Questions w/easy finite answers are generally easy to solve via a Google search (for example, the most points I've earned are from answering 'how do you copy a python list'), and the more complex questions that should have answers along the lines of "well it depends, you could do 1, 2, or 3" have one accepted answer that isn't the best solution for the context I'm working in.
- Tawheed 17y agoAbsolutely! At best it saves me a google search here and there, but only if there is a hard and true answer. Check out the group discussion interface at http://braintrust.io http://braintrust.io, it caters to actual debate and discussion taking place.
