Today I had an issue and I also had a solution in mind, but I still used SO to find alternative solutions, in the end others had same workaround solution as me but sould have been great for my case if the workaround was not needed.

IMO "use the documentation" is not enough, many times you have much more complex question or bugs/problems where if lucky other individuals hit them before you and were kind enough to share their findings. I upgraded my Ubuntu version and now some people decided that is safer and smarter to move the /tmp in apache to some other place but at the same time hide it from me, I am not sure what man page search query for "my file is not in /tmp but the system is telling me is there" will give you the results.
