Balancing reactive and proactive docs changes is always top-of-mind for me. I know it's not the most shocking of observations, but it feels important to actually name this problem and normalize the tension between those needs.

Tech writing peeps, since I host TNBTW, this question is coming directly from me: what are the learning resources you've found most helpful in your TW journey? Add them as comments on the original thread, pretty please! 🙏

Tech writing peeps: I've been mulling over content types a lot lately, and I'm curious: Do you have explicitly defined content types besides the Diàtaxis-styled types? I'd love to know what they are and how you define 'em!

I write help #docs for software. I enjoy reading all sorts of things from psychology to theoretical physics to Murderbot and other sci-fi. I'm a TNG Trekkie that stans Janeway. I watch the LOTR trilogy every year around New Year's.
