Miguel Afonso Caetano<p>"While haste and speed often get confused, they differ in that the second shows control instead of panic. You can maximize speed while keeping accuracy quite high; beyond a certain point, though, spending more time on accuracy, style, or other aspects that prevent a document from going live always yields diminishing returns.</p><p>Nobody reads perfect yet outdated docs, except historians. Even then, docs aren’t perfect, because documentation can’t ever be perfect. This is a key principle I stand by (call it the Ferri Paradox if you want): Any document describing a system is necessarily inaccurate. And yet, this reality doesn’t significantly alter the impact of our work, because we aim for simplicity and usefulness over extreme faithfulness. Given how imperfect products are, docs are a charitable portrait.</p><p>Now, how you write docs quickly depends on a number of factors. Some of those factors you can’t control: your overall amount of experience as a writer, your initial expertise with specific technologies, and the way features are developed and released in your organization. But other aspects are yours to act upon. For example, you can decide how to best use the technical resources at your disposal and how to approach writing the docs and asking for feedback."</p><p><a href="https://passo.uno/how-write-tech-docs-quickly/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">passo.uno/how-write-tech-docs-</span><span class="invisible">quickly/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/TechnicalWriting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TechnicalWriting</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/TechnicalCommunication" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TechnicalCommunication</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/SoftwareDocumentation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SoftwareDocumentation</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/SoftwareDevelopment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SoftwareDevelopment</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Programming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Programming</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Docs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Docs</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Documentation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Documentation</span></a></p>
Miguel Afonso Caetano<p>Basic Questions That Every (Technical) Writer Should Try To Answer - AKA Technical Writing 101: </p><p>I assure you that If you can answer all of these questions, your readers won't mistake you for a chatbot :)</p><p>1. What is the purpose of the document that I'm writing?</p><p>2. Why am I writing this document?</p><p>3. Who is the target audience of this document?</p><p>4. Is this document part of a series of documents?</p><p>5. If so, have I established a nexus to the other documents in the series?</p><p>6. Are there any predefined formal requirements that the document must meet?</p><p>7. Does the document meet those requirements?</p><p>8. Does the document include an introduction?</p><p>9. Does the introduction clearly explain the purpose of the document to the target audience?</p><p>10. Does the introduction present the topics that will be explored in the body of the document in a straightforward way?</p><p>11. Does the document include a conclusion?</p><p>12. Does the conclusion provide a good summary of the previously explored topics?</p><p>13. Does the conclusion tell readers what they should have learned by following the document?</p><p>14. Does the body of the document include use case scenarios based on user personas that explain the potential advantages of adopting the explored tools or methods?</p><p>15. Does the body of the document depict real-life examples of how readers can immediately start using the tools or methods explained in the document?</p><p><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/TechnicalWriting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TechnicalWriting</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/TechnicalCommunication" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TechnicalCommunication</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Writing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Writing</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Nonfiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Nonfiction</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Documentation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Documentation</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Docs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Docs</span></a></p>

"Among the many forms of yak shaving that plague our craft is obsessing over documentation tooling. The more technically minded among us are guilty of spending too much time tightening the screws of some CI pipeline just to save a few seconds when building the docs. As exercises, they’re indeed useful, for they help us practice technical skills that might lead us to becoming docs engineers. Should we park writing the docs over picking static-site generators though?

The danger lies in mistaking the motion for progress. A perfectly tuned pipeline that builds no new useful content is a monument to wasted effort. It’s the equivalent of a chef who spends all day sharpening their knives to a razor’s edge but never actually cooks a meal. The knives are essential, but they are not the dinner. Our tools are essential, but they are not the documentation. The user who is stuck at 2 AM with a failing API call does not care about your elegant build process; they care about finding the answer."

passo.uno · Things technical writers shouldn't care about... yetStrategy, Michael Porter wrote, is choosing what not to do. Now, the problem with knowledge work such as the one tech writers carry out is that it’s full of things that seem to require equally important, time-consuming decisions. While engaging in lengthy disquisitions might be alluring, endlessly combing the Zen garden of theory doesn’t solve the basic problem of the docs hierarchy of needs, which is writing the damn docs and making sure they’re accurate, useful, and easy to follow.
