Your posts. Good, Better, or Best. Which will it be?

Posts answering questions? Good. Posts answering questions and containing examples? Better. Posts answering questions, containing examples, and including URLs or Hyperlinks to referenced external (not contained within the post) information? Best.

“Useful information results from aggregating disparate data and combining it into a unified and coherent source.” (This members opinion)

So, when answering or creating posts that reference external data, please include URLs or Hyperlinks (to the data). Instead of your post being just another piece of ‘disparate data’, it will instead, become a piece of ‘useful information’.

There you go again, SnowHog, asking people to be logical!

It got me to thinking about something funny, like "sudo apt install askaquestion" and "sudo apt install answeraquestion" ... but in an instant I realized that wasn't funny at all. What if there was a script/app that prompted the forlorn user for their question and automatically included the info that ixni or some other tool supplied, and then created a txt file that the forlorn user could post. Ditto for the answeraquestion.

I'm rusty, Snowhog. Cut me some slack!
