I saw this advice online somewhere ages ago and I've found it to be incredibly useful--
Before you ask a question, try to answer it yourself for fifteen minutes. If you still don't know, then ask. This way, you'll know that it's not a dumb question. But if it really is a good question, you won't be struggling for hours before asking anybody about it.
You'll also learn a lot trying to solve it, and remember the answer better than if someone just told you.
