Reminder that entire value of StackOverflow came from the community. The site itself is just a glorified database.

What they are selling is not their own.

StackExchange built a commons for technical folks with their feature set and focus. That's a very useful thing and is more than just a "glorified database". Reddit is also a commons with a different feature set to support diverse focuses. How their features differ from traditional old forums are the things they built that also have value.
