Exactly, whenever I join a new team or a company I go to read the docs, and then whenever I bring some questions people say "oh, that's outdated, none of it is relevant anymore".

Technology can support the efforts to keep docs updated, but as you say, organizations must recognize this as an important part of work and make sure that people take care of the docs.

In those instances, were the docs useful as a starting point or historical snapshot? Or would it have been better not to have wasted your time with them at all?
