“How do I move the turtle in Logo” was one of the controversial questions in Stack Overflow back in the date. It was posted by Joel Spolsky, one of the co-creators and then deleted by Jeff Atwood, the other co-creator. I like it because it illustrates the two cultures so well. Joel thought it was a reasonable and answerable question and Jeff thought it wasn’t specific enough to be a real question. In the end Stack Overflow went Jeff’s way which I think is a pity. The question was undeleted later for its “historical significance”: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1003841/how-do-i-move-the-turtle-in-logo https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1003841/how-do-i-move-th...
