To maximize your learning experience and contribute to a productive environment, please adhere to the following best practices:
-
Ask Smart Questions: Before seeking help, attempt to solve the problem yourself. When asking questions, ensure they are well-researched and thoughtful. Refer to Eric Steven Raymond's guide: How To Ask Questions The Smart Way
-
Search Before Asking: Always search the web for solutions to problems you encounter. Many common issues have already been solved and documented by the community.
-
Read the Manual (RTFM): Familiarize yourself with the documentation of the tools and technologies we're using. Often, the answer to your question is in the manual.
-
Debug with Logs: When troubleshooting, always check and analyze relevant logs. Logs are crucial for understanding system behavior and can often point directly to the source of a problem.
