It makes me think Communism could be on par with Capitalism if people started chasing points instead of money. Oh wait !

Anyway another use of Stackoverflow is open source support by open source software authors.

I've been using ByteBuddy recently (java bytecode manipulation library) and the doc is very superficial all the more so the library in itself is a gigantic net of classes and dependencies to inject (the problem with DSLs based on object oriented systems is that you're never shown the DSL's full syntax but has to deduce it from the individual bricks). Turns out the author is very active on Stackoverflow and these posts have constituted 95% of the sources I read to learn how to handle this library.

Comrade Xi is way ahead of you.

Of course there is a capitalist way to approach the same problem. Free money off vouchers at Doral Resort with every early IRS return.
