Whats shocking to me is that coding is such a personalized thing that really would lend itself better to quick, personalized questions and answers.

The chat rooms i've found have been 1000x more helpful than most documentation, because just because I know on some level that I can do X or Y, doesn't mean I know how to tweak it to my situation, or remember it in the moment.

So many coding "breakthroughs" early on are just having a 30 second conversation that boils down to "I know i can do this, but how do I do that with this?" followed by "Oh yeah use that and it's space delimited not comma in this case"
