   @dachary “our docs are written for those who don’t need them” is not the defense they imagine…

     Grr.

     Trying to have a convo about a GraphQL API that I use. Both spousey and I are unhappy with docs, and a person who *writes* those docs was asking for feedback.

     Someone in the comment thread said: “If you don't understand [foo] then you probably aren't the intended audience.”

     First, I never said I don't understand foo.

     Second, I am a person who needs to use the API, therefore by definition I am the intended audience!

     What an unnecessary elitist gatekeeping comment. So frustrating.
