I need advice on fulfilling my LH commitment. The answer rate is 100% so it's difficult to hunt for unanswered questions, and with so many rules about asking questions in scope I have no idea how to come up with a question with potential to not be poorly received?

Mooseman

@Unihedron What potential questions do you have?

Unihedron

@Mooseman "How to organize my house properly? I can never stop just giving up." 77806@area51, "How to make the most out of pulling all-nighters?" 77755@area51 and broad ones like that

IOW, I'm not sure they'd fit to begin with, so how could I know which fields are in scope?

Mooseman

@Unihedron The all-nighters question is definitely OT since it's a mind hack. The former is too broad, but could be made narrow, e.g., "How can I organize PC cables in a drawer?", etc.

Unihedron

I don't have cables.

Mooseman

@Unihedron It's an example. :/

How can I organize the crates and boxes of books, engineer circuits, snacks, drinks and instant noodles / ramen?

that doesn't sound good

Mooseman

@Unihedron You'd have to limit a question to, well, a single question. e.g., "How do I organize snacks?"

Unihedron

@Mooseman By that logic shouldn't I iron it out into one snack package and even include its size in dimensions of the casing?
