Just.
Don't ask for general life advice, don't go to "popular", don't talk politics( one of my biggest regrets is how political I was in my youth).
But theirs no better source of technical information from people who tend to be willing to help.
Go to stack overflow, say you've never programmed and want to know what tools to use. You'll be banned.
Go to Reddit, you'll get tons of helpful information. Rarely a subject matter expert jumps in.
AI is probably what I'd ask my stupid programming questions now though. Stupid as in how do I download a file in C++...
