This points to a difficulty I have trying to write how-to-solve-this-problem articles.

Starting to find my writing feet means I try on things other talk about, and see how they feel.

And I just can't get past how trying to write "how I solved x problem" can feel like dictating a solution that *will* work.

Which feels lame, because it's so untrue. It's funny how quickly you will run into a small obstacle that even the most basic advice didn't account fkr.

Your articles will be helpful to someone out there and that makes them worth writing, you can always add a disclaimer pointing out that this is just based on your xp. The directives might not be fully true but they will help people get closer to the solution, and that's enough.
