- michael_michael 14y agoOne interesting trick I've learned regarding "Don’t rush to StackOverflow. Think!" is that it sometimes helps me to go to StackOverflow and write out the question using clear, precise language and code examples. Nine times out of ten, the simple act of writing out the question helps me to solve the problem on my own. If it doesn't, then I can click 'submit'.
- freework 14y agoSame here. I consider my "stack overflow question composition" skills to be my most valued programming skill. "Send me teh codez" questions don't get answers anyways.
