started out as a total noob and learnt programming for a long time, I think I'm at a level where I should be able to answer others
Brayden Nguyen

Practice first on /sqt/ and /dpt/.
Juan Walker
you gain nothing from doing so why do you bother
Jayden Anderson
I can answer /sqt/ questions very easily
/dpt/ is just a bunch of fizzbuzz writing retards who don't do anything and spend all the time jacking off about fUnCtIoNaL pRoGrAmMiNg

you get to test the bounds of your knowledge with real life problems
also I saw somebody say that you can use stackoverflow reputation to enhance your chances of getting a job in an interview

Grow a pair and keep it on there. You get absolutely nothing from not commenting/ deleting your answer, but on the other hand if you made a mistake someone that has more experience than you will most likely point it out and help you become a better programmer.

idk what kind of question you were replying to, I got quite a few points for offering a different solution than others, and can think of many situations where the accepted answer is now outdated or simply not working
on my first question, the error was that I checked the wrong parameter in an sql query and it got 3 upvotes
Lucas Harris
it's about scala
