The only documentation that’s more frustrating than Apple’s “‘doYouReallyWantThat’ is an attribute. It returns ‘true’ if you really want that. We can’t tell you what’that’ means. Code samples are for lesser people” is Python, where I somehow, every time I want to look up if it’s ‘subst’ or ‘substring’, I somehow end up in either the C bindings or some ten-year old PEP on package management that was never implemented.
PHP in the late 90s did it right (and probably still does today), ruby gets it mostly right, although it, like python, somehow still hasn’t figured out how to get Google to rank the most recent version higher than the one that’s a decade out of date.
The popularity of video tutorials is baffling. Is it because it’s the only way to earn money with this content? Anyway, I’ll just add the observation that the three communities that seem to really embrace the format are QAnon, “men’s right’s”, and WordPress.
