Let me second this last point -- I have found answers through Google to current questions where I wrote the answer years ago. Memory is a fickle thing.

And there is a (fairly snarky) essay out there, old as dirt, to the tune of "ask smart questions", which crystallizes the replies you have found here in this thread, and what they point out to you. But I prefer Julia Evans' take on this: https://jvns.ca/blog/good-questions/

Take a deep breath, read the whole thing, reflect on what people have been hinting to you here. Then gain a little humility, and realize that people take their own time out to answer your question. You owe them the effort to make that question a good one, and to take their answer -- even if it means more work for you -- seriously.
