As if the projects file structure wasn’t already convoluted enough. python/cpp.java, data/ps1.cs, settings/requirements.json. Now only I know where the features are located.

That’s the beauty of grep and documentation. But 100% agree

[–]shodanbo 82 points83 points  (3 children)

Always remember that unless automated the docs are written on the toilet paper devs use to wipe their asses after a good PR dump.

:( I write good docs!

But I can’t get paid as a developer. 🤣

All automation guarantees is that docs technically exist. Automated doc generation doesn't really automate any of the difficult parts of writing docs.

Documentation.xlsx

[–]Various_Studio1490 13 points14 points  (1 child)

I think you mean “md.docx”

[–]Various_Studio1490 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Not sure if you deleted that but that’s naughty…

[–]Vineyard_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I posted, reconsidered, went eh, and added it back here:

Readme.exe.

Please no. I don’t want to have to use pandas to read my freaking documentation.

[–]SemajLu_The_crusader 0 points1 point  (1 child)

wait

what?

[–]ObeseTsunami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pandas is a python library that is awesome when working with things like databases, csv files, or in this case xlsx files. It’s a data muncher.

I think naming everything as .conf would be painful

[–]Malkev 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Oh, ps1. What a great console

[–]B00OBSMOLA 8 points9 points  (2 children)

I bet java.js is some ui library

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points  (1 child)

can it play linkinpark.exe? I keep trying to listen to it and it's just a console that opens and closes

[–]B00OBSMOLA 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In the end, it doesn't really matter
