If you've learned more than 500 things, why does the 501st need to be so much more special in order to be worth your time?

- pdimitar 2y agoBecause most of those that I have learned were bad at onboarding, and you do get sick of it after a while. I've improved no less than 25 projects' README's (sadly all private / corporate so I can't even advertise myself that way) by removing 50 lines of semi-useless prose and replacing them with 2 paragraphs 4 lines each and one small code block as a usage example. So TL;DR -- because most programmers can't describe a use-case if their lives depended on it.
