Just my 2 cents: try TeX.StackExchange. /Completely/ different
experience: it's much less strict than StackOverflow, for instance,
waaaay friendlier, and there /are/ personalities (one the most famous is
Barbara Beeton, whose posts are exclusively in lowercase /unless/ she
writes officially on behalf of the AMS or TUG - this would be
unacceptable on SO - also Enrico Gregorio's posts, and probably also
David Carlisle's - and a few others - are easy to recognize after a few
lines).
