Please don't say just hello in chat (2013)
What&#x27;s HN take on short messages vs long messages in slack&#x2F;signal&#x2F;whatsapp ? I was recently asked to make longer messages rather than short sentences when exposing ideas in the flow of the conversation (I think the manager was annoyed by incessant notifications on his phone but he could either keep the screen on or turn them off instead of telling me I could use shift-enter :D).<p>I don&#x27;t intend to change my style though, chat isn&#x27;t email.
