RTFM: The Forbidden Technique

6 hours ago 58.3K views 0 shares

The eternal developer struggle: spending four hours trying to force a flip-flop through a sock when you could've just spent five minutes reading the manual. The documentation is right there, beckoning with its sweet knowledge, but no—we'd rather perform sock contortionism while muttering "this should work" for the 47th time. And then have the audacity to complain that the library is "poorly designed" when our sock-sandal monstrosity inevitably fails. The real tragedy? We'll do it again tomorrow.

When You Start Coding In A New Language Without Reading The Documentation

Playing ping pong with a pool cue is exactly what happens when you dive into a new programming language without reading the docs. Sure, you might hit the ball occasionally through sheer luck, but you're basically just hacking away with completely wrong tools. The worst part? Sometimes your janky solution actually works, and then you're stuck maintaining that monstrosity for years because "it's in production now." The real pros know that 15 minutes reading documentation saves 8 hours of Stack Overflow archaeology.

Signs Of Sociopathy

StackOverflow AI Programming Debugging

The evolutionary scale of debugging techniques laid bare! At the top, we have the panicked screaming of devs using StackOverflow and ChatGPT - frantically searching for someone else who's encountered their exact error message. But then there's that rare specimen - the dev who calmly reads official documentation to solve problems. The absolute madlad sitting there with a smug grin, methodically understanding the system instead of copy-pasting random solutions. It's like finding a unicorn in the wild. Who actually reads the manual? Next you'll tell me they write comprehensive comments and follow naming conventions too!

The eternal tech support paradox in its natural habitat! You're desperately trying to explain how to use the software while the user is completely disinterested, yet somehow the program itself is just sitting there, sipping coffee and watching the chaos unfold. It's like trying to teach quantum physics to a goldfish while the quantum computer is just chilling in the corner. The best part? Tomorrow they'll ask you the exact same questions again, as if today's explanation evaporated into the void of their RAM.

Documentation Is For People Who Don't Believe In Themselves

The eternal developer paradox: spending four hours debugging when the solution was right there in the README all along. Nothing builds character like reinventing wheels at 2 AM while the documentation silently judges you from an unopened tab. The timestamp really sells it - clearly the wisdom that comes after you've already done it the hard way.

Asking The Senior

Junior: "Where's documentation?" Senior: "I AM THE DOCUMENTATION!" The final boss of every legacy codebase isn't the complexity—it's the grizzled veteran who wrote it all and never bothered documenting a single line. Why write comments when you can just be summoned like some mythical creature whenever something breaks? Nothing says job security like being the human equivalent of a 600-page technical manual that nobody wants to read.

Oh. My. GOD. The eternal tech support NIGHTMARE in one image! 😱 There you are, delivering your MASTERPIECE of documentation, practically SINGING about how the program works, and the user is just... SCREAMING at the program like it personally insulted their mother's cooking! Meanwhile, the program sits there, completely innocent, wondering what crime it committed to deserve this abuse. It's like trying to teach quantum physics to a toddler who's simultaneously on fire and refusing to acknowledge water exists. I can't even! 💀

Big Tech To Startup Culture Shock

That moment when you trade your cushy FAANG job with its fancy processes for "startup culture" and discover what that actually means. You went from "our CI/CD pipeline automatically runs 10,000 tests before deployment" to "we push straight to production at 4:59 PM on Friday and pray." From "comprehensive wiki" to "ask Dave, he's been here 3 months longer than everyone else." From "work-life balance" to "we're a family" (translation: you live here now). But hey, there's free pizza sometimes. And those stock options might be worth something in 2057!

The foundation of our entire industry rests on the shoulders of those brave souls who spend their precious time answering questions on Stack Overflow, GitHub issues, and obscure forum threads from 2008. While developers enjoy the sunshine and beautiful views, these unsung heroes are literally holding up our entire ecosystem—debugging our stupid mistakes, explaining basic concepts for the 500th time, and writing documentation nobody reads until it's 3:42 AM and everything is on fire. Without these magnificent keyboard warriors, we'd all still be trying to center a div or figure out why our code works on localhost but not in production.

Ah, the ancient ritual of code review. That moment when you're staring at someone else's spaghetti logic like a caveman discovering fire for the first time. No comments, variable names like 'x1', 'temp', and 'doStuff', and nested if-statements seven layers deep. Your brain just goes "confused unga bunga" as you try to decipher what dark magic the previous developer was attempting to summon. The only thing missing is banging rocks together hoping for documentation to appear.

Corporate developer enters startup chaos: "Where's the documentation?" *crickets* "Unit tests?" *tumbleweed rolls by* "Code review process?" *distant laughter* The shocked Pikachu face perfectly captures that moment when you realize your fancy big tech practices are just fairy tales in startup land, where "ship it now, fix it never" is the unofficial motto and your work-life balance just filed for divorce.

Trying to learn Python by talking to its native speakers like... Look, we've all been there. Teacher says "immerse yourself in the language" and suddenly you're in a bathroom trying to have a conversation with a literal snake. Same energy as when the senior dev tells you to "just read the documentation" for a codebase that was last updated during the Bush administration. The first Bush.
