This is why I really only like using open-source systems (or, when a proprietary system is strictly necessary, one that includes the source with the license). If I want to know what's really happening when I use the API, I can just read the source code and find out.

Yeah, I giggle when I people talk about rtfm like they're tech gods.
Anything I need to know for my job - It's in the source code.
Everything is open source if you can read assembly.
When I was working on a script for updating dns information I ran into this.
.setDNSServerSearchOrder, works as expected according to the documentation.
.setDNSSuffixSearchOrder, method does not exists.
Super frustrating.
I don't get the punchline.
I didn't either.
A little google led me to this article. The bit above is within that article, but I can't be bothered to give a shit about anything windows related enough to read all that.
