Jun. 17th, 2025 03:15 pmI talk a lot about these online arguments where people respond in ways that don’t follow from the original statement, but I think this is a bigger part of life than just online. I think it’s a major issue that would make life easier in a great many ways if it could be solved.
As an example, I’ve been getting in a lot of trouble at work because my flux comments aren’t good enough. I told my coworker today that project managers keep not giving me the information I need to write flux comments. I asked her for an example of the sort of email she sends that PMs respond to. (I wanted to see if there was a more polite phrasing that made PMs want to be helpful.)
She responded with an example of the kind of flux comment she writes, so I could mimic that format to write better comments. I asked how she got the information in the comment. She said the PMs send it to her.
