This article is 10 years old and 85% caveats.
I would argue that it is essentially the job of any software engineer! I’m truly flabbergasted by his statement.
“I no longer think you should learn to code”

“I think you should learn…” then describes all of the things that programming entails.

I didn't get into this article too much, but it took me an embarrassing amount of amount of time to figure out that the drop cap at the beginning was an "A".
I know this is satirical, but I would actually use this with my web development students as an exercise if it introduced more subtle shittiness that they would have to fix.
I'm not sure I would consider those results "low-quality". Not necessarily for this use case, but often time 3rd party sites do a better job of providing examples and readable documentation than the "official docs". Also, if you want to use the official documentation, just use the search bar of docs.python.org. Then Google gets none of your views!
