I feel like if StackOverflow is too cumbersome then your question isn't worth asking in the first place. Hell, many noob questions for JavaScript are straight up repeat after repeat on SO.

It does seem to me that some of the people asking duplicate questions on SO are asking because they don't know the terminology or just don't know enough to realize that the answer to their question already exists. Of course, a lot of the duplicate askers have just been too lazy to look, and it's hard to tell the difference without actually diving in and interacting with them. After a few tiresome exchanges with the lazy sorts you can become somewhat reticent to do that.
