I work in IT. My boss is by all accounts very competent in both programming and administration, yet all his documentation basically says "remember to set DoTheRightThing=True"

Not even joking, I've got a project that crashes the MSVC linker with "Internal compiler error occurred" like 1 out of every 5 builds.
Back in the olde days of programming (I'm talking about compilers from the 80s) the coding connoisseur knew that getting a certain error that seemed like nonsense could easily be solved by adding an extra, or removing a remark line from the top of the code and recompiling.
