"Tech writers" are not "tech writers"

[Chris Borokowski]

I judge writers of technology as a I judge writers of literature. I
care about the quality of the thinking in the output, and nothing else.
I'm also familiar with how envious people get and why they tend to
become so critical that they "accidentally overlook" that point.

I'll check out some of Jim Seymour's work. One can both be good and
fact-check aggressively, although some of the best minds in history
have cared less about details than getting the logic right.
