Its 4am and you sit at your computer, illuminated by its soft glow. You take a sip of your tea as you stare at the incomprehensible error message on your terminal. you tab back over to the .config file and scan it for errors for the fifth time - or was it the sixth? you google the error message again, only this time you spot something that could help. A community of like-minded hackers – and one of them has had the same problem you’re having! The replies are all non judgemental and one of them links to a page on the community wiki with something that could help.

You add the line to your .config file and run the command again. Your pitch black room is illuminated as your smart bulbs come to life. You can finally go to bed. We hope you drop back in again after you get some sleep.
