I was reading [What are the pros and cons of error handling at beginning vs. end of the method](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6600355/what-are-the-pros-and-cons-of-error-handling-at-beginning-vs-end-of-the-method) on Stack Overflow and I was wondering if this question is better fitted for Software Engineering SE. I looked it up here and found [What's the difference between Stack Overflow and Software Engineering SE (previously known as Programmers)?](https://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/68384/whats-the-difference-between-stack-overflow-and-programmers-se). But, that really doesn't have much to do with best practices for programming and where they belong.

So, my question is do best practices questions, like the previous one, belong on Stack Overflow or Software Engineering SE?
