Let’s talk… documentation!

Keen to get opinions on #Confluence vs #Notion for technical documentation (text/embeds/graphics) for internal dev teams!

Have used both, but confluence is my choice. Notion feels too clunky even though it offers more customisable possibilities!

What’s your go to for writing documentation?

Atlassian Confluence

CVE-2024-50379 org.apache.tomcat:tomcat-catalina Confluence Data Center & Server 9.8

CVE-2024-56337 RCE (Remote Code Execution) org.apache.tomcat:tomcat-catalina Dependency in Confluence Data Center & Server 9.8

A memo distributed by NSA leadership to its staff says that on February 10, all NSA websites and internal network pages that contain banned words will be deleted. This is the list of 27 banned words distributed to NSA staff:

Anti-Racism
Racism
Allyship
Bias
DEI
Diversity
Diverse
Confirmation Bias
Equity
Equality
Equitableness
Feminism
Gender
Gender Identity
Inclusion
Inclusive
All-Inclusive
Inclusivity
Injustice
Intersectionality
Prejudice
Privilege
Racial Identity
Sexuality
Stereotypes
Pronouns
Transgender

The purge extends beyond public-facing websites to pages on the NSA's internal network, including project management software like #Jira and #Confluence.

The NSA is trying to identify mission-related sites before the "Big Delete" is executed but appears to lack the personnel to do so.

Just a reminder that if you use #Confluence to store your docs, it means you don't have any backup.

I think I have to make a statement.

I liked working with #NovellNetware - versions 3 and 4.
I’m a big fan of #LotusNotes. It was hard getting used to not having it in my toolbox.
I believe that #agile values and principles are a good foundation for organizing team work and some most frameworks are a good starting point for using them.
I like #Atlassian #Jira and #Confluence.
I love working in a well designed #OpenOfficeSpace|s

Any takers?

Today I learned that you can check if groups of people, or particular individuals, can view a particular page in Confluence. You just need to use the horizontal ellipsis menu (\cellip), and select the option People who can view this page (see first image). You can then search (second image) for particular individuals.

When a Confluence page breaks down to gibberish cos a macro you've depended on is deprecated and then you have to manually go through 1001 pages to remove it and hopefully replace it with an equivalent macro but it doesn't exist so in the end you just copy and paste stuff

lmao

#Confluence is some of the worst software I have ever endured. The apex predator of code purchased by people who won’t have to use it

Everyone’s corporate secrets being actively owned is the justice we all deserve

Burn, you turd
