Small-Scale Question Sunday for June 29, 2025

Do you have a dumb question that you're kind of embarrassed to ask in the main thread? Is there something you're just not sure about?

This is your opportunity to ask questions. No question too simple or too silly.

Culture war topics are accepted, and proposals for a better intro post are appreciated.

University students should all learn:

  • How to write an email to dispute a claim including supporting evidence
  • How to write an email summarizing action items from a meeting
  • How to write readable, unambiguous instructions for performing some technical process
  • How to write a well-formed request when asking for help

because even senior managers and execs all seem incapable of doing some or all of these.
