TIL posts that truly have been learned that day, or recently, often contain subtle errors explicitly or implicitly. Which isn’t a problem in and of itself but in a when such posts get used as the basis of someone else’s TIL post these errors often get compounded.

As an example I find almost any TIL style post about a text editor to be like this. To give a contrast Chris Siebenmann‘s blog [1] does give focus to what was done. Also the author is reasonably good about making corrections in edits or follow up posts.
