Greetings from hell — that is, the third trimester of my high-risk pregnancy with fraternal twins. Unlike every pregnant person on Instagram who is either waltzing around a meadow, cradling their bump in total bliss, or sorting through chic baby decor somewhere in their 7,000 square foot mansion, I have found pregnancy to be abhorrent.  […] Read more

Техпис на зоне: нужна ли свобода при написании документации

Документацию можно готовить где угодно и как угодно. Писать инструкции в многочисленных CCMS, публиковать сайты через генераторы наподобие Sphinx, применять сложные разметки вроде DITA, вести базы знаний в Confluence или вообще собирать файлы в Word.

Выбор зависит от множества факторов: сложности, требований к результату, потребителя контента, бюджета отдела, объема накопившегося легаси — да и просто моды в профессиональной среде.Но что...

ИИ съедает джунов, а вместе с ними племенной фонд индустрии

С 2021 года я работаю на стыке двух отраслей - цифровой и сельского хозяйства. За это время мышление у меня заметно профдеформировалось: я все чаще смотрю на другие сферы через сельхоз-призму.
