I have to wonder how much of these opinions about SO come from one bitter interaction the HNer had there that they never forgot, like the time someone corrected their question, and now the whole site sucks and everyone there sucks and needs to be rebooted. One aspect is that as you get experience, you kinda outgrow asking questions on SO but when you do your questions are increasingly arcane anyways. So the average HNers perception of SO was mostly formed when they were at their most beginner fragile stage, most likely to ask poor questions and receive humbling responses.
