I guess a lot of people will be printing these out and putting them in their coding guidelines in the section "what not to do". Every time Google is being useless and points me to stack overflow, the results are the same:
Most of the answers are not related to the question.
Most of the remaining posters answer the parts of the question the person who asks already said he knows about, but isn't interested in using. E.g. jquery answers to a CSS question.
Usually a few answers that it cannot be done.
Once in a while there is one person who both understood the question and had an solution to the problem. In this case there is always someone who comes in later and states that it cannot be done, even though the answer right above his contains the solution.
