Hi all,

For many years, we have been referring people to ESR's "how to ask
smart questions"[1] when think they asked a not-so-smart question. I
believe this document[2] by Jon Skeet -- a person who essentially
became famous by answering programming questions -- should take that
document's place in our minds, because it is far more accessible,
shorter, polite, and most importantly -- goes the extra step and reminds
answerers that they, too, should behave.

When referencing it, specifically, use 
https://codeblog.jonskeet.uk/2018/03/17/stack-overflow-culture/#covenant
to link directly to the covenant -- although the reasoning behind it is
well worth reading from time to time.

Have fun,
        Shai.
