If you're a good/better than average UI/UX designer, you obviously know something that other people (including me) don't. It's your job to identify what that something is, your audience can't really tell you :) I find that often in things I'm better at then other people, I have a better understanding of some basic principles, that form a frame of reference and help me make decisions. I'm sure there are some basic principles that the average hacker isn't familiar with, so I think that'd be a good starting point. I also find that I understand things best if it's written in terms I already understand, so I can connect it to knowledge I already have. Analogies are really useful for that.
