| Jul 30, 2015 at 12:15 | comment | added | Raphael Mod | @babou Consider that a short answer may help the OP more now than the long, deep and sweeping one, even though the latter may have more value, quantitatively at least. I myself sometimes use some SE sites for ad-hoc problem solving. On TeX - LaTeX, say, I won't appreciate the answer that explains at length why TeX does it in this or that way more than the answer that tells me the two lines that solve my problem. My advice for you is to become better at estimating what the OP is after, and not spend the time to write stuff they don't want to read (if there are no other reasons to do it, anyway). | |

Interesting is very subjective and can relate to originality, pedagogy, cuteness, ... Sometimes, simply encouraging new people. In general, I want to understand well, which means that I will not have time for complicated problems, those that are often interesting, and may give much work answering. That is a real issue. Trivial answer gather more rep than hard ones. Conventional answer tend to also get more than more imaginative, open ended ones (which I prefer). | |
