In the first installment of our new column about the tech workforce, Jennifer Riggins asks if we really need all those standups and status updates. Is there a better way? #management #scrum #engineeringmanagement #ITmanagement
I stan a woman who can turn technical jargon into something easily understood by non-techies.

Wanting to get into cyber? Remember that non-technical roles are just as valid as technical roles ๐ I shared this viewpoint on LinkedIn last week and got lambasted by m3n telling me I don't work in cyber because I "just work in sales"...

a nice thing about writing with less jargon is that if what I'm saying doesn't make sense, it's easy for readers to call me on it if you use a lot of impenetrable jargon, people will often think the problem is with *them* instead of with your writing๐Julia Evans๐ (@b0rk)Fri, 18 Feb 2022 14:50 GMT
I was today years old when I learned that `dind` is an acronym for "Docker-in-Docker". I had seen it *everywhere* but never knew what it meant. ๐คฆ๐ปโโ๏ธ A good reminder to write out the acronym FIRST to make sure everyone's on the same page.

Whenever I got to share good news, Iโd always make sure to specify itโs good news EARLY in the message like this. Nothing worse than a person in power springing a surprise on someone they have more power over

Some really interesting things about how to handle a timezone-distributed team, but also some interesting ideas about hybrid/remote teams and building up a better social and human time.

I loved seeing how one explained BGP as a road to a neighbourhood which just gets deleted - the neighbourhood is still there but you cannot get there. It is so simple and beautiful way to explain what is happening for people who aren't interested of "internet stuff".Em Em. ๐ป๐ฎ (@msjoku)Mon, 04 Oct 2021 21:18 +0000

There's a lot of extra context needed in async comms, including clear communication of trust, expectations, and deliverables. Here's an example from my talk on remote/async work to highlight the difference. It looks like a lot, but it pays back in saved time and stress quickly.Post details
Sufficient communication in remote/async environments often feels like over communication. But in the absence of being โseenโ, people perceive their requests disappearing into the ether, not knowing if theyโre being worked on. Communicating frequently helps ease those concerns.Stephanie Morillo (@radiomorillo)Fri, 02 Jul 2021 15:45 +0000

Ableism in particular has saturated everything without remorse. So many ableist words are used as lazy shortcuts to convey ideas by so many folks, including those who are otherwise relatively โprogressiveโ.

Once you start trying to reform your own language to remove ableist, misogynistic, and other harmful language you start realizing how deeply rooted those words and phrases are in our communication.

People really don't know how disrespectful it is to speak in jargon. My doctor does it. My lawyer does it. I have to check them every time. To commit to your industry's vocabulary over the responsibility of communication is dangerous and arresting to your clients.Alex Wolf (@alexwolfco)Wed, 28 Oct 2020 14:05 GMT

This is a super interesting thread from Justin Garrison about the importance of words, using Disney as an example. It's always amazing to see examples of how these seemingly small changes can make huge differences.

As with 'You Guys', this is another great view into why using inclusive phrases are incredibly important.

This is another post you really need to read, if you haven't already, as it makes you really think about the way you communicate.
I know a lot of people who use the term 'you guys' as a gender-neutral term, but after reading this article it really helps persuade you that the term is actually not as inclusive as you think.
For a couple of years now I've been making an effort to use gender-neutral ways to address groups, and I hope after reading this you will too.

Being able to write semi-readable written text with technical terminology is a huge skill, and makes such a difference compared to not being able to write it.
I've found that since blogging more, my written language has gotten a lot better, and significantly makes my job easier.
I've worked with a number of brilliant engineers who can't explain themselves as well in written forms, which means commit messages and core pieces of documentation are difficult to understand.
Remember that you're never going to be the only person reading something, so make your content well thought out, re-read it and ask someone else to read through it to check it's OK.
