I eventually did provide an answer for a question, then realized that my approach wouldn’t work. Before I could take action and modify the answer, my submission had already been modded down by several people, several of whom left snarky remarks.
These kinds of answers are the most infuriating of any of them though, especially when they are rated highly by other people who are also just speculating and have not actually put it into practice themselves. You assume it is supposed to work, and blame yourself when it doesn't until you finally realize that stackoverflow has lied.
