I don't understand why apparently 99.9% of all software projects and tools fail to do an even remotely passably usefully acceptable job when it comes to things like documentation and version checking. Basic, basic stuff. Have the people working on all those projects never ever been frustrated, annoyed, stymied, blocked, broken, diverted, derailed, confused, confabulated, confusababbled, or just basically pissed right the heck off by other tools they've ever used? Have they never thought to themselves, "Gosh, this is so bad, it makes me think that when I have to write my own README.md I will kind of make sure it doesn't suck and, like, actually tries to give enough specific details that a newb can get through ok? Oh and maybe I'll even make my tools smart enough to know/warn/assert/require/assist about versioning?" Do you seriously wonder why all the alien races in the universe have put up a giant DO NOT CONCTACT, HERE BE STUPID beacon around our solar system?
