Got an example of what you mean?
Also, due to HN comments not being the best with formatting this kind of thing, I kept these lines very short. It's the gist that matters most.
I don't know where I picked up this style, but it was before I ever got hired anywhere. It was common across several places I worked at later on in the 2010s. I strongly prefer this to rambling prose. The first line is the Jira ticket description, by the way.
