The Original RTX On/Off Comparison

The Original RTX On/Off Comparison
Remember when game installers tried to convince you that NVIDIA graphics would transform your blocky LEGO characters into... slightly less blocky LEGO characters? The classic InstallShield wizard showing identical Lego Star Wars screenshots but claiming one has "NVIDIA graphics" is the grandfather of today's RTX memes. The difference is about as noticeable as semicolons in JavaScript - technically there, but who's really checking? Graphics card marketing has been gaslighting gamers since before ray tracing was cool.

Just Read The Documentation!

Just Read The Documentation!
Ah yes, the classic "read the documentation" advice that leads to... whatever the hell this is. The documentation shows LEGO pieces connecting in physically impossible ways with these confident red arrows pointing at what can only be described as a violation of the laws of physics. It's like when you finally cave and check the official docs after hours of struggling, only to find some cryptic example that makes absolutely no sense and leaves you more confused than before. "Just connect the authentication middleware to the legacy database through the quantum flux capacitor!" Sure, buddy. Sure.

When a senior dev tells you to "just read the documentation," what they really mean is "figure out how to connect these two completely unrelated pieces with zero context and make it work somehow." The documentation is always like those LEGO instructions that skip 17 critical steps and suddenly expect you to have built a quantum computer. And yet they'll look at you like you're the problem when you can't magically deduce what goes in between.

Literally Any New Task Looks Like This

The sacred dev cycle: Junior asks how to do something, Senior says "read the docs," and the docs are just two arrows pointing at LEGO pieces. Perfect summary of technical documentation everywhere—either non-existent, outdated, or so minimalist it might as well be hieroglyphics. The worst part? Seniors genuinely believe those two arrows contain all the wisdom of the universe. Meanwhile, the junior's frantically Googling "how to understand documentation that doesn't explain anything" and preparing their StackOverflow question that'll get immediately closed as "too broad."

Just Read The Documentation (They Said)

Ah yes, technical documentation at its finest - a LEGO diagram with arrows pointing to... somewhere? The irony of senior devs saying "just read the docs" when the docs themselves are a cryptic puzzle that requires three PhDs and a decoder ring to understand. It's like being told the treasure map is super clear, but it's actually written in invisible ink and you need to stand on your head at midnight during a full moon to see it. Documentation authors seem to think we're all psychic and can magically fill in the 47 missing steps between "import library" and "congratulations on your functioning application!"
