It is helpful in that almost koan way though.
The author said at one point that it was written in a bit of a huff of frustration, and if I remember correctly, also after a pint or two. It's not the best answer answer by any means, but it is one of those small gems of the web, I think.
It is helpful. It may not provide the answer the OP wanted, but it provides the answer they needed.
