Good. Maybe the OP should have given the reference.

My main interest here is not microservices but just to tell the HN and computing community to be much more careful with undefined terminology and acronyms.

Here we now have some good descriptions and references on microservices. Good.

My main point is that articles on computing need to have, gee, call them links, to explain jargon and acronyms, to explain stuff not in an English dictionary. The OP on microservices I am using just as an example.

To me, poor technical writing in computing and computer documentation has been one of the worst obstacles to my startup -- darned near killed my startup -- and is a sore point.

I guess my point is that microservices have been well trodden in this forum context, I would not expect every article to require a basic primer explaining every concept
