Online question-answering services are unreliable
In my experience,[1][2][3][4][5] online question-answering services like Stack Exchange, and LessWrong questions work work around half of the time.
Some services like Quora are even less reliable (I would say Quora probably gives good answers to less than 1% of questions I've asked).
