Existing questions
When I have a question, I usually go on r/learnmath or r/learnmachinelearning. Sometimes, I understand the answer and sometimes I don't.
If I ask a question on Stack Overflow, the response to my question - if I even get one - is usually berating me for asking the question in the first place.
My goal is to get better answers from the questions I post online.
