A programming Q&A site, where users get upvotes for good questions, answers and comments, and also get downvotes for bad answers, questions and comments. The votes determine your rep (the highest I've seen there is 300k Skeet Skeet)

The users don't play around better not fuck with them. And don't post silly questions, answers, and comments except your Jon Skeet (He has a lifetime supply of upvotes, if you downvote him your wasting your time) . Can be a horror to new users though. Plus its perfectly designed.
Bob : Dude, I totally asked an innocent question on stackoverflow and got 30 downvotes in the first 10 seconds.

Me : What did you ask?

Bob : How to print a line to console in java.

Me : Ahahahaha I got 100 downvotes when I introduced myself with a question.

Collaboratively edited question and answer site for professional and enthusiast programmers.

A website created for torturing innocent programmers. Who mistakenly enter into the site, because of Google.

Actually there are no Professional programmers in that site, there are only moderators.

It is not a help forum for programmers.
Question:

How do i learn programming?

Closed as not constructive by

Stackoverflow moderators.
