Could I make a request for an example of good documentation?
Obviously this is hilarious, and for the most part "do the opposite" would work just fine; but a readable, friendly, best-practice "this is how you should document stuff" article would be appreciated.
I always tell my Indians: Write all comments and code with an eye to them getting read in two years by a man you've never met who does not speak your language, has never heard of this project before, and needs to fix the bug that brought down the server in less than 2 hours or the boss will have his hindquarters. Because that is EXACTLY who will be reading this next.
Compliance with this direction is... sporadic.
