A slightly updated #introduction as I'm closing out my tiny private instance and moving here.

I had stepped away for a bit, so I am hoping the move here really pushes me to refocus and re-engage with communities on Mastodon.

As for who I am:

I'm a researcher, writer, and developer living in Minnesota. I have a PhD in #TechComm with research interests in the #digitalhumanities and the #sociotechnical histories surrounding technology.

I work primarily in the #civictech and #nonprofit space helping organizations tackling homelessness.

I also talk a lot about #poetry , #art, and the random #ttrpg.

I am looking forward to re-connecting!

Enough with the "As a large language model..." fluff. Users want answers, not apologies. A direct tone in AI isn't just a preference, it's essential for clarity, efficiency, and trust.

Our new post explores why directness is the future of human-AI interaction and how to design AI personas that get straight to the point without being rude.

This week's Featured Links post has links to articles about the MAGA debt bomb, how the Grateful Dead helped build the internet, how we should respond to people 'doing their own research', and more.

EDIT: Thanks all!! I'm passing along your suggestions.

Anyone know an open-source project, even a small one, that needs API docs created or improved? Asking for a #technicalWriting pro who wants more experience with API documentation. #FOSS #techcomm (bonus points if it hits interests like politics, food, beer, auto racing, mapping/OSM, civil engineering, social good...)

When I was working at the Toronto Stock Exchange I had to create some large documents with content that was being shared with another writer. I did not trust Word's Master Document feature so came up with my own solution. It took a bit more effort than using Master Documents but was stable. I've published my guide to working with multi-file Word documents on my blog in the hope that it may help others.

If you're a technical writer, today is a sad day. The Society for Technical Communication has filed for bankruptcy.

Wow. After some 60+ years the Society for Technical Communication (STC) has folded. I’ve been a member for more than 20 years.

This is a reflection on the importance (or lack thereof) of documentation particularly in the software industry, but also hardware, manufacturing, etc. This was once seen as crucial for customer support, but now it’s just an expense to spend as little on as possible.

Since I joined Mastodon in 2022, I haven't taken the time to write an #introduction. With #HelloQuitX and the current shitshow, now is probably a good time !

I'm a linguist & painter who found a calling working on digital information architecture. With age, I'm turning into an ecofeminist witch.

I've been practicing #yoga & #meditation for 20 years, trained as a teacher but I'm weary of new-age bullshit being a cover for capitalism investing our bodies. So I teach #TechComm instead.

📅💊 Highlights of the work day:

- Reviewed a big PR with significant content updates + a new guide that should clarify an important concept and help users establish some best practices when using the products

- Great Q&A session with the product manager as part of the kickoff meeting for a new docs project

- Spent some time troubleshooting the GH Action from yesterday; still reconsidering the current approach

📅 😷 Highlights of the work day:

- Worked on automating the process of creating release notes with GitHub Actions

- Updated the plan and prepared action items for a new documentation project

- Reviewed updates to an OpenAPI document. Figuring out the best approach for using a schema as a base, extensible model

"Similar to Wood’s conviction that AI’s transformative potential doesn’t come from simple tasks like writing emails, tech writers will likely find conviction when they go beyond fixing simple grammar errors to using AI for developing conceptual articles, generating release notes, or understanding connections across disparate API products.

One of my colleagues compared using AI like learning to play an instrument—it’s one thing to have an intellectual understanding about the instrument and notes, but knowing how to play an instrument well is entirely different. It takes practice, experimentation, learning, diligence, and time. Maybe too many tech writers feel that AI should provide a push-button solution to creating documentation effortlessly (a misguided perception based on too much AI hype). When pushing that button doesn’t magically produce great docs, perhaps they become cynical and dismissive?"
