On StackOverflow I have twice as many answers as I have questions. But yeah, same.

I guess that I could up that, for myself, but I don't usually hang there to answer questions.
I'm too busy writing code. I try to give back to the community, so I do answer a few. SO is a hugely valuable resource for me, and I sincerely appreciate the help that I get there; even when it is delivered with a sneer.
Ya, I have both twice as many answers as questions and twice as many questions as answers. But keep plugging away guys, you'll get there.

I have no idea why you made that post.
It's not always a bad thing, as it is used as a carrot to bond teams and push for excellence (Think "Semper Fi").
But it is quite grating. The main thing that gets me, is when folks being superior either withhold information, or deliberately try to interfere with my learning.
On StackOverflow, I have almost twice as many questions as I have answers. This doesn't really get me any respect.
But boy oh boy, have I learned a lot.
