I love the shit out of this. I can relate SO HARD to everything she wrote. It's like most people don't understand how to communicate with regular normal human beings

They have even forgotten one of the most basic grammar rules - always fully spell out an acronym the first time you use it. Looking at you MicroSoft (MS). No, I don't know what TLA* is, and now this document is completely useless to anyone who doesn't know what TLA is, especially since you've also not linked to any resources about TLA

As a software developer with 10+ years in .Net. I don't even bother with Microsoft documentation anymore, it's often wrong or outdated and skips chunks that even senior devs need.
