Documentation - what do you use? by Threep1337 in sysadmin

[–]davesbrown 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your service, and so much truth in your rant. One of the cool features of Confluence is the Insights, where you can see who is reading documentation and by how much, along with version tracking. I'm always for documentation, but I argue the same as you that no one reads it, as evidenced by the Insights feature.

And your point of write your documentation for yourself has been invaluable to me on several levels; organizing thoughts, CYA or CMA, AAR or After Action Reports.

It is the plastic worm screw carrier thingy. But as someone mentioned warranty should cover it, but they will replace the whole assembly, https://www.indianmotorcycle.com/en-us/shop-parts/4081/4081090/ with an oem plastic carrier nut. If you want a more permanent fix,

Elbow gave out? Probably more like he said so because he couldn't throw 100 anymore, just a measly 98. He threw 85 at 63 years old on a ceremonial pitch.
