I've never had an issue asking a question on stack overflow.
I'd wager a lot of 'you people' that have issues with it probably didn't do enough research on your own.
There’s issues on both sides. A lot of people who ask questions are clearly just asking others to do their homework or otherwise haven’t made any effort, but there are also a lot of people who are unnecessarily hostile.
I definitely agree with this. I think the easier and kinder thing to do is to just not reply to posts like that.
