Dumb Question…..
How often have you heard someone start asking a Question with either Dumb Question or Stupid Question
If like me you work in tech this is a pretty regular thing you will hear being said in front of a question, even though there is no such thing as either a dumb or a stupid question, other than a question that never gets asked.
If you are asking a question, especally about tech it tends to be for 1 of a few reasons
- To learn something that you don’t already know (aquiring of knowledge)
- To confirm you actually understand something (reaffirming of knowledge)
- To request clarification as an explaination wasn’t clear.
My Ask
Give yourself a little credit about being brave enough to ask the question in the first place, especially as in a crowded
room (whether a physical room or a virtual one like a forum/instant chat service) there is a high probability that the question you want to ask, is one someone else also would like the answer but is too afriad to ask
it because they think it’s a Dumb Question or Stupid Question
So just ask the question, because every question is a great question & a question that needs answered!
Even Jeffery Snover (the inventor of PowerShell) says so in this interview
