Why on earth would you shower before getting dirty/sweaty…? If you’re going to shower again… why waste the water then? Humans are a confusing lot, man.

When it comes to documentation, at least for myself when I’m learning new things, I like to look at it like a recipe book.

The book shouldn’t contain just the ingredients and what the final product looks like. It needs to be more in depth than that. It needs to contain the ingredients that go into it, how much of those ingredients, the time to cook, what consistency to look for, prep time, etc.

There are plenty of people out there who have never cooked before, and a recipe book/instructions on how to cook a favorite dish is the perfect way to share your love of the craft and the dish that you made. Then, with your recipe as a guideline, people could change it to suit their tastes, and so on and so on.

That’s just how I look at it. I wish I could interpret developer instructions and write up a more user friendly documentation for them. I would love to be able to give back to the community in some more meaningful way than just barely knowing what the developer is providing and using it and making a mess of it my first few tries until I learn from my mistakes.
