I’ve got to confess, I have for years been guilty if not reading the documentation. I simply go with the flow and hope it works…

But not anymore! And why the change you may ask? We’ll, I’m reading the f…ing documentation on Rocky linux and I’m just blown away from the amount of great information!

If you’ve been guilty of not reading the documentation, let me me know what changed it for you

If you’re not reading the documentation, this is your time to confess!

    I had a boring manufacturing job with long gaps between batches of work, so I read every help file in Windows NT4.1. While reading them, I found a way around our IT limitations on which apps we could run, and learned how to write scripts. So I wrote a password protected launcher tool using a macro feature in a terminal emulator I had access to on my workstation, and then started reading the man pages in Unix sys-V.
