introduce more additionals #351

Closed CaptainSifff closed 3 months ago

CaptainSifff commented 3 months ago

I introduced some more words into the specialization section.

jpthiele commented 3 months ago

It feels like we add additionally to almost all specialisations now. Should we not do a general sentence in the beginning of the section instead then?

CaptainSifff commented 3 months ago

hmm, what's you feeling about "specializing into [stuff outside RSE]", since this is already present in some specializations. Does this imply that its something additional? Then I can remove some of them.

jpthiele commented 3 months ago

We already categorize into 'proper' specializations, i.e. taking a deep dive into one of the skills, and those extending their skill set. So I would say it is already clear that they have to have additional skills.

MakisH commented 3 months ago

Isn't anyway the "being specialized" implying that the specialization comes additionally to the main skills? I don't think we need to say that a nuclear physicist is a physicist who additionally is specialized into nuclear physics. They are simply a physicist specialized in nuclear physics, and remain a physicist anyway.

I don't think we need either the "additionally", nor any additional sentence in the beginning.

The "additionally" in each specialization felt like too much so my initial response was moving that out. But after reading the existing introduction into the specializations section I agree that we do not need it there either.

CaptainSifff commented 3 months ago

OK, now the rule is, if it says RSE in the sentence there is no additional "additional"...

CaptainSifff commented 3 months ago

The various "additionally" additions look good and provide the change we discussed in the meeting.

I provided a couple of suggestions - one is a rather fundamental point that I've detailed in my comments - it should be a very easy fix, or, if I'm misunderstanding the context then it can stay the same 🙂.

Otherwise all looks fine.

EDIT: I was a little behind with catching up with the above discussion - I see there is actually the suggestion that we have too many "additionally"s and should replace these with a general sentence. I'm happy either way on this so OK to go with the consensus.

@jcohen02, @jpthiele How about the new variant? I brought in the tools creation.
