Stackoverflow just took away my "privilege" on asking questions on their website because I typed up a similar question but with a different issue. Welp looks like I am never touching that site again. What a waste

@yaapete Damn thank you so much! I’m having fun making them :)
I’ve had that numerous times as well, sometimes drawing out the logic or working on a different problem helps too, but circling back is always tough when it seems insurmountable. Then that’s what Stack Overflow is for! 🙃

I remember reading this article some time ago, think it was last year, about stages of being a developer. One of them was "Reading a lot of Stack Overflow" then down a few steps was, answering questions on Stack Overflow. I think I just crossed a milestone today. #100DaysOfCode https://t.co/zxBLIv7vL3

@samantha_ming @FrontendMasters @sarah_edo I love Vuejs, but there's not much community support for it and that has been a little frustrating.
Asking questions on both Stack Overflow and the official Vue forum is a futile endeavour. Ignored at every turn. (Except when someone else posts "I have that problem too".)

UGH. I've literally spent like 10 hours trying to debug this. I thought it was a permission issue, I've installed and reinstalled everything twice .. every stack overflow link was purple .. just to find an outdated dependency in my requirements file ...

@stridergdm @1 It is curious, I'm still working this out but adding an index can fix it or may also cause it.

It's quite possible I'm completely missing something though. But that's another issue I have with Swift and ObjC (docs)... so much of the stuff out there explaining things is 3rd party (blogs, stack overflow) and 90% is out of date or just plain wrong.

@Phlash909 I think my experience is likely down to being driven to use stack overflow when under pressure and backed into bizarre technical corners so the "dumb ***" aspect is probably somewhat appropriate 😂

@nealhaddaway I'd suggest you to prepare a demo or a link to share with an explanation of the problem. At worst, you could always post it on Stackoverflow.

@nbouscal i'll also point out that most of stack exchange is *not* super toxic, stack overflow's problem is in part one of immense scale

@nbouscal yes, stack overflow is pretty toxic, my issue is that hot takes like this don't help and hurt quite a bit
aside from contributing to burnout, your fight won't be effective if you don't have clarity on where the fight is

@senatorshoshana @StackOverflow @AllTrails @Etsy @Shutterstock The trick is moderation. If platforms were better at moderating the content on their sites, and adhering to the terms of service they create to begin with, this wouldn’t be an issue at all.

@senatorshoshana @StackOverflow @AllTrails @Etsy @Shutterstock Great, then they can let users block things they don't like and not interfere. No liability then. OTOH if they decide what information is right and wrong or valid or invalid, then they they're liable. I don't see an issue.

I’m not sure about other people, but an added advantage for me (a solo coder) is that TDD enforces that I truly understand what an API etc is doing when I implement it, rather than copy pasting from Stack Overflow.

This mostly happens when you are deep in crunch mode, probably tired and definitely not thinking straight, return a few hours later after sleep and after reading the errors *boom* you come up with a better question for stackoverflow, problem solved.😂😂

@BootlegGirl @StackOverflow This is a real problem. The best way to avoid it is not to tag your question with mainstream technologies like JavaScript or Bootstrap to avoid attracting moderators who close the question without understanding it.

@Runspired With almost any Ember issue outside of “wait... how does that syntax go again” I find Google more helpful than the Ember docs.
Only marginally tho, because Google is full of keyword results for the docs & Stack Overflow answers pointing to the docs. None of which help.

I wonder whether Shiny questions are appropriate for #stackoverflow [r]. Unless it's a simple, obvious problem, you're asking users to install, run and debug an entire web application, often with external data. Not reasonable IMO.

Think of a time you were using a tool and hit an obscure error. It's slowing your work down. You're frustrated.
You google the error and hope stack overflow has an answer.
It doesn't. Instead, you end up in a GitHub issue thread.
