Installation instructions are often terse with a bunch of assumed knowledge left implicit.

It becomes a sidequest needing an investment of an unknown amount of time with no guarantee that you’ll have a working program at the end of it.

Man pages can be just as bad, like the developer was ticking a box.

It’s the subtext of every public comment made by Schumer criticising the war: Didn’t go through congress, erratic, no exit strategy.

Never a word against the myth-making to justify the war, or that the US shouldn’t be in an offensive war against a country that didn’t attack it.
