Even then it is hit and miss. If you are doing something that is also copy/paste-able out of a StackOverflow comment, you're apt to be fine, but as soon as you are doing anything slightly less common... Good luck.
True. It can be good at giving you pointers towards approaching the problem, even if the result is flawed, for slightly less common problems. But as you slide even father towards esotericism, there is no hope. It won't even get you in the right direction. Unfortunately – as that is where it would be most useful.
