Revised Hall of Technical Documentation Weirdness

Posted by simoniker on from the educative-stupidity dept.

DBarefoot writes "Last August, my Hall of Technical Documentation Weirdness was submitted to Slashdot. Some folks found it at least mildly amusing, and I received a bunch of submissions of documentation weirdness from Slashdotters and others. So we've just posted an updated version of the Hall, with more than twice the images and easier navigation."

    Makes me think about those stupid consumer warning labels, and how dumb someone must have been to actually do something that stupid.

    The warning labels are not put for the benefit of stupid people. They are put so stupid people don't sue them after doing the exact stupid thing that the label describes.

    Although they don't write documentation ;-)

    That is because they are programmers, not because they are Indians. ;-)

  4. It all depends ... by Secrity · · Score: 2, Insightful

    In this case it depends upon how you look at it:

    If you do it because you enjoy watching a server fry, you are a sadist.

    If you do it because you enjoy your pain of having your server fry, you are masochistic.
