Update writing-related notes

The added notes could be used for creating educational materials. It
seems to be very specific on how much you could do, though. Meh, I'll
think about for another time.

+Easy to criticize others but not your own.
+Having others to look out for your work is a good incentive to get in touch.
+Furthermore, depending on the community, you can learn more outside of the niche as oftentimes, they also make off-topic discussions.
+This is best used for making a quick feedback loop especially [[id:10214008-71da-4d1e-b761-80e671d6fc40][When starting out, focus on quantity over quality]].

+- most niche projects only cater to smaller audience
+- smaller audience means there is lower noise and the feedback often comes from people who are genuinely interested in your project

+- it makes for a quicker time evaluating whether this is something valuable for the audience
+- assume that most of the audience does not want to read since it isn't their job unless necessary
+- a disgruntled reader from the bad would make a worse impression than a reader that didn't find the thing valuable
+- most of the audience have a rough idea of what you're about to discuss;
+  remember the [[id:79357d56-74bf-4854-820c-c0ad849f2468][Classic prose]] model, they are interested in your solution or what you have done (i.e., workflow, solutions);
+  otherwise, they wouldn't consult to your piece in the first place
+- examples:
+  + abstracts in academic papers
+  + showcases in tutorials

+- a written specific use case showcases multiple things;

+- usually because it [[id:3a605fb2-b867-41c2-bcf9-00ef772808e5][Show the result at the front]];

+- examples:
+  + devlogs which a lot of the [[roam:Game development]] creates
+  + a lot of blog posts that tackles only one specific thing by its author usually to make them remember that thing
+- from a content creator perspective, it creates more interesting options (e.g., skits, persona) that are usually unneeded in a tutorial;
+  it can take advantage of our tendency to [[id:9a11ef31-b2a7-43a9-a7a9-48f191838c6e][Prefer referencing over remembering]] by being more memorable
+- with it, we can [[id:0dbfee88-cdce-48d1-9a10-23fc12d9bcd5][Refer to advanced resources when skill-building for a solid short-term goal]]
+- this is not a false dichotomy, overall;
+  a tutorial can make for a interesting piece if it's leaning more on specific use cases
