As someone who reads a lot of SO posts when looking up nitty-gritty stuff, I think it's much better. I have yet to ask a question. But, for example, just this morning I wanted to know what kind of support Java has for POSIX signals, and I feel that the SO posts asking similar questions have given me a good operational understanding (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19711062/alternative-to-sun-misc-signal; https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19711062/alternative-to-... https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2541475/capture-sigint-in-java https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2541475/capture-sigint-i...). As a resource, I think SO is invaluable.
