I have just signed up to this site in order to ask a specific programming question I thought would be unsuitable to ask on Stackoverlflow. 

My question was quickly closed down, here is a link to my question [My closed question][1]

Why can't this site also be about the more philosophical aspects of programming also? I understand now that my question breaks the simple Q&A system, as it is quite subjective, but philosophical questions always are. 

Where can these types of programming questions be asked?? Not here, not on Stackoverflow (understandably) and not really on a philosophy Q&A site (because a good understanding of programming is needed to really give a good constructive answer).

If I went on a philosophy QA site I'm sure my question would not be closed, but it would also not be answered.
