HN Discussion:
  • Writing for oneself as the single audience is fulfilling and authentic
  • Tailoring content to a specific individual or persona produces better writing/talks
  • Famous authors like Vonnegut and C.S. Lewis endorse this same principle
  • ~Writing for one person should be balanced with accessibility aids like links and expanded acronyms
  • Persona-based design/writing can be misguided when it ignores practical user needs
