    I used to work as a technical writer and I always got shat on by engineers who worked along the lines of “real men don’t write documentation”. But those guys won’t read this because reading is just too hard for them.

      I guess I’m not a real man. I read documentation as a hobby. Started with Legos, and now it’s reading component i2s communication tables…

        I’m not saying all engineers are like that. I’ve met a few capable ones. But the mediocre and less than mediocre ones usually have the biggest chips on their shoulders.
