I find it exceedingly hard to tell whether headlines like these lead to articles that are in fact satirical, or not...
- gilleain 4y agoThe use of the word 'Topology' is especially ... odd. To me, at least. I understand that it is possible to use technical terms like this in a more casual sense. Somehow it makes me think it is an attempt to use adopt 'serious gloss' of another field.
- an9n 4y agoI've noticed people starting to use the term 'socialise' when they mean 'to share': 'And then we'll socialise these information products with stakeholders' instead of 'I'll email some documents to the managers'. Because they think it sounds cleverer heh

- asplake 4y agoIf "organisation" was mainly about the relationships between things, that word would do. Unfortunately, it tends instead to refer to formal structure so another one is needed. The article's introduction to Team Topologies is very dense and I'm not sure that it does it justice. The book is actually quite approachable – I've listened to the audiobook twice now.
- thedougd 4y agoThe headline certainly increased my cognitive load.
- akhmatova 4y agoThat exactly my take as well. It was like, this has to be parody.
