    That’s a very interesting observation, I have to admit that even I sometimes am too lazy to read documentation from top to bottom and prefer asking a question to someone that already knows. Though I think it can also be attributed to how good a certain text is structured, quality of documentation should account not only for completeness, but also for laying out the information to be easy to parse and highlight the most important parts, which is maybe why I feel “documentation fatigue” in some cases








  • Yeah, I do that actually, though I keep a “serious” profile where there’s little activity and another one where I can just do whatever so I engage a lot more with other projects and make some experiments for myself, so it also ends up being the most active, but I don’t show it, maybe I should?

    In my experience interviewers look very pleased when I show them what I made, but they don’t seem to dig into it much most of the time, so I don’t know how important they really find it.
    I’ll definitely try to put more emphasis on those anyway, so they can see a good showcase.

    That sounds interesting, I’ll definitely try that, thanks!
