From November 2 to Nov 22 2018 the "DrSheldon" account asks exactly one question per day. https://space.stackexchange.com/users/drsheldon?tab=question...

Like this one, most of the questions are worded to enable an easy answer from a primary source.

In one instance the account answers its own question within the same minute: https://space.stackexchange.com/questions/31279/how-was-the-...

In another instance, the account replies to a comment with "Nonetheless, this would be the question to document any examples."

Remember the guy that was hyper active wrt C# questions maybe 10 years ago?

People were amazed he would answer every C# and WPF questions minutes after they were posted.

I am convinced to this day he did the same thing.
