If software development is human communication & two parties are speaking different languages, we regain hope for mutual progress when we realize that we are speaking different languages (even though we use the same words).

This was a fun chat. At one point I was worried we'd got stuck down the decision record rabbit hole, but we talked about a huge range of things ☺️

Feel free to ask me anything else you want to know about decision records though 😉
