尽管黑客们有蔑视简单问题和不友善的坏名声,有时看起来似乎我们对新手,
对知识贫乏者怀有敌意,但其实不是那样的。
我们不想掩饰对这样一些人的蔑视--他们不愿思考,或者在发问前不去完成他
们应该做的事。这种人只会谋杀时间--他们只愿索取,从不付出,无端消耗我
们的时间,而我们本可以把时间用在更有趣的问题或者更值得回答的人身上。
我们称这样的人为“失败者”(由于历史原因,我们有时
把它拼作“lusers”)。
我们也知道,很多人只想使用我们编写的软件,对技术细节没什么兴趣。对多
数人们而言,计算机不过是一个工具,一种达到目的的手段;他们有更重要的
事情要做,有更重要的生活要过。我们明白这点,也并不奢望每个人都对另我
们痴狂的技术问题有兴致。然而,我们回答问题的风格是
针对这样一群人--他们有兴趣,并且愿意积极参与问题的解决。这点不会改变,
也不应该改变;如果变了,我们将失去我们引以为傲的效率。
我们在很大程度上属于志愿者,从繁忙的生活中抽出时间来解惑答疑,而且时常
被提问淹没。所以我们无情的滤掉一些话题,特别是抛弃那些看起来象失败者的
家伙,以便更高效的利用时间来回答胜利者的问题。
如果你觉得我们过于傲慢的态度让你不爽,让你委屈,不妨设身处地想想。我
们并没有要求你向我们屈服--事实上,我们中的大多数人最喜欢公平交易不过
了,只要你付出小小努力来满足最起码的要求,我们就会欢迎你加入到我们的
文化中来。但让我们帮助那些不愿意帮助自己的人是没有
意义的。如果你不能接受这种“歧视”,我们建议你花点钱找家商业公司签个
技术支持协议得了,别向黑客乞求帮助。
如果你决定向我们求助,当然不希望被视为失败者,更不愿成为失败者中的一
员。立刻得到有效答案的最好方法,就是象胜利者那样提问--聪明、自信、有
解决问题的思路,只是偶尔在特定的问题上需要获得一点帮助。

建议仔细看看。多学习一下!
对照一下自己的行为,看看自己哪些地方正是文中说的要避免的。。。
我又看了一遍《提问的智慧》,本来准备摘录一段给大家看,但看来看去,
觉得句句经典,哪段都值得一看再看,所以就推荐大家去看一下全文了!
你看过后绝对有益!
Although hackers have a bad reputation for despising simple questions and being unfriendly, sometimes it may seem that we are hostile to beginners and those with limited knowledge, but that's not the case.
We don't want to hide our contempt for such people - those who are unwilling to think or don't do what they should before asking questions. Such people only kill time - they only want to take, never give, and waste our time needlessly, while we could have spent that time on more interesting questions or more worthy people to answer. We call such people "losers" (for historical reasons, we sometimes spell it as "lusers").
We also know that many people just want to use the software we write and have no interest in technical details. For most people, the computer is just a tool, a means to an end; they have more important things to do and a more important life to live. We understand this and don't expect everyone to be interested in the technical issues that drive us crazy. However, our style of answering questions is aimed at such a group - those who are interested and willing to actively participate in solving problems. This won't change, and it shouldn't change; if it did, we would lose the efficiency we are proud of.
We are largely volunteers, taking time out of our busy lives to answer questions and are often overwhelmed with questions. So we ruthlessly filter out some topics, especially abandoning those who seem like losers, in order to use our time more efficiently to answer the questions of winners.
If you find our overly arrogant attitude unpleasant and委屈, just put yourself in our shoes. We haven't asked you to submit to us - in fact, most of us like fair deals the most. As long as you make a little effort to meet the minimum requirements, we will welcome you into our culture. But it's meaningless to ask us to help those who are unwilling to help themselves. If you can't accept this "discrimination", we suggest you spend money to find a commercial company to sign a technical support agreement and don't beg help from hackers.
If you decide to ask us for help, of course, you don't want to be regarded as a loser, let alone be a member of losers. The best way to get an effective answer immediately is to ask questions like a winner - smart, confident, with ideas for solving problems, just occasionally needing a little help on a specific question.

I read "The Wisdom of Asking Questions" again. I originally prepared to excerpt a paragraph for everyone to see, but after reading it again and again, I think every sentence is classic, and any paragraph is worth reading again and again, so I recommend everyone to go and read the full text!
You will definitely benefit after reading it!
