Dec 23, 2015 at 7:30 comment added Angelo Fuchs I think that if people come here at the first place, they either already have the mindset that you want to create or they will develop it, as they apply solution after solution. I remember well being spoon-fed my first hacks accidentally when I was a kid (observing adults solving acute problems with wit) and repeating the hacks that were already known to me, until I happened to start patching stuff together myself. So... As soon as your hands start doing something, your brain will adapt.
Dec 1, 2015 at 0:01 comment added Captain Obvious @holroy Yeah I don't have an answer to that, aside from campaigning in an attempt to change many people's philosophies so it is reflected in votes. Answers are much harder to regulate than questions. Still, even the questions... e.g. there's a lot of questions that aren't so much about requiring hacks as wanting to make the impossible possible (like "how do I light my hair on fire without burning my hair") or not knowing that products exist, I'd like to see community consensus on meta that can be used as guidelines, and better use of the "hack not needed" reason.
Nov 30, 2015 at 19:30 comment added holroy Although I'd love to see more how to solve answers, I think it's too embedded in human nature to give the actual answer. We could however strive towards reducing very similar answers, and possibly protect questions on an earlier stage if very similar answers arises.
