“Documentation is like sex: You’re not getting any”
Damn haha, this made me laugh out loud
This meme was made by someone who has never had truly bad sex/documentation.
Is getting a face full of pussy that stinks like a litter box better than no pussy at all? 🤔
Good example! My point exactly!
Yup, op has never had the joy of the docs lying to them.
I’ve had to use outdated documentation that made the problem worse. So I guess bad documentation is like bad, unprotected sex with a lot lizard that leaves you with an itching or burning sensation.
I’ve been there… (In a work/corporate context, at least)
I’ll leave ‘the night work’ out of it, however (damn, the glitter gets everywhere!)

Someone’s never read instructions autotranslated from Chinese and not checked for accuracy.
Literally me yesterday trying to decipher Baidu’s PaddleOCR docs. Have half a mind to aim Claude Code at the URL and just be like ‘plz help’
Well, sometimes I ask questions to the AI and makes the same sense.
Absolutely not. I’d rather have no documentation and start from scratch than be gaslit by an entire team of people telling me that the very obviously wrong documentation is correct and has been correct for 30 years
I think there’s a difference between bad and wrong. Wrong documentation is incorrect. Bad documentation isn’t really incorrect, it’s just poorly executedb and mostly unhelpful.
I mean, incorrect documentation is clearly bad, so…
That documentation sounds like marriage.
You ok?
Incidentally, both bad sex and code documentation both involve std vectors.
It’s fine, babe, the doctor said I’ve got a standard.
Respectfully disagree. Sometimes the documentation is so bad that you have more questions than answers and even then, what they provide still doesn’t really explain how to do something with enough details. It’s all literally shot in the dark and you’re just left with leap of faith. * cough * Sonicwall * cough *
Last week I spent a day trying to figure out why the thing in the damn documentation doesn’t work.
Turns out, for that project “latest” doesn’t point to their latest release, but to what they currently have on their dev branch. And apparently they changed the whole module around since the last release.

Then you haven’t seen bad documentation (or had that sex you regret).
When it’s really bad, it can be far worse than nothing.
Completely incorrect - bad documentation can be actively harmful, wasting your time with its inaccuracies.
When it’s bad, it’s life changing in a traumatic way.
What about when the sex is … wrong?
Bad documentation could land you in prison.
Bad sex is just horrible all around.
not sure what this post is on about
I would say bad sex can land you in a prison too.
good point
Bro has never been at /moma
Bad sex is not better than no sex… Wtf… :)
the person who wrote this hasn’t had bad sex yet
I guess its also our culture where sex is seen as the most important thing in life. So everyone is convinced their entire value consists of how much mating they are doing. Maybe that would be true if we were breeding animals but we are not.
