I agree with henrik_w below. Experienced/Senior engineers lose a lot of their potency if they go dark during office hours. It is a criminal waste to let developers lurch around trying to solve a known problem. Managing distractions is a major part of growing as an engineer. I don't encourage people pinging me for trivial stuff that they can find by themselves though. First few times I go with documentation links / google links, escalate to lmgtfy and finally I give direct feedback.
