Technical data - When the original kilogram decreases

It was a news item a few weeks ago: The original kilogram, protected in a special safe, is getting lighter. Now some people will think with relief: "Oh, that's why my scales always show more when I stand on them." To ensure that no one is under any false illusions about their own weight, a new definition of the kilogram has been [...]

Editorial systems and layout - two worlds?

Editorial systems and layout - two worlds?

Working with content management systems (or component content management systems, CCMS for short) is often disparagingly referred to as "industrialized text production". As with industrial products that are practical but come in a boring and loveless design, documents from a CCMS are said to be squeezed onto the pages in a "one-size-fits-all" look in order to maximize paper [...].

When I grow up, I'm going to be a technical editor

When I grow up, I'm going to be a technical editor

Even as a child, I spent hours playing technical editor and didn't want to be anything else. That's nonsense, of course. For one thing, the profession hasn't been around that long, and for another, I wanted to have an adventurous job. And seriously, who wants to become a technical writer? The profession has a lot [...]
