Documentation that ends up rotting and being ignored is usually a consequence of a poor organization/processes. Such places are usually not a very happy place to work at.
How exactly can you use an email (or email thread) buried somewhere as a part of onboarding process? How exactly can you improve that email when it shows as unclear/lacking info after you somehow managed to use it during onboarding?
- afarrell 6y agoDocumentation rotting is fine so long as: 1. It is easy to tell which documents are clearly marked as snapshots in time vs. living documents. 2. Most docs are snapshots, so people have enough energy to maintain the living documents. 3. There is a slack channel or team name on the living documents. That way, if you see something out-of-date and want to update it, you know where to ask.
