I found Joel Spolsky's blog through tons of snarky StackOverflow non-answers. I can't be alone in that.
To a certain demographic coming of age in the 2000s, yes all of this writing was considered pretentious garbage getting in the way of sincere attempts at learning. They laughed at us from the high ground.
I didn't really enjoy Joel's writing until years later into my career.
