Hey now. Searching stack overflow circia 2011 to 2018 was an Art. You had to know enough to find the correct question that wasn’t deleted because a mod thought it was a duplicate of another question
Also to find the actual correct answer three comments down because the one that was voted highest worked, but was actually a really shit way to do the thing being asked

I often found the correct answers in the comments of an answer
After a while you got know which stack overflow questions were a waste of time, and you used that knowledge for years.
Before that you had to hang out on flipside or other gamedev sites and show your worthiness before begging for information.
I was so proud when they shared the DS hack (basically a homebrew SDK made by trial and error by some people) so that I could make small games on it.
