    I work in IT. My boss is by all accounts very competent in both programming and administration, yet all his documentation basically says “remember to set DoTheRightThing=True”

    Edit: I just looked up the documentation for an internal service and under “Error recovery” it just says “The output of command xy should make sense”. fml

        Damn, I must’ve been missing this in my code the whole time.

        Not even joking, I’ve got a project that crashes the MSVC linker with “Internal compiler error occurred” like 1 out of every 5 builds.
