Morning, friends! Last week I posted about Spidergram, the web analysis tool @autogram_is just released on GitHub. Over the holidays, we’ll be doing a lazy, weekdays-only advent calendar — showing interesting tricks and explaining the ideas behind it. github.com/autogram-is/spide…

Quine feels very Autogram x.com/fermatslibrary/status/…

A Quine is a computer program which takes no input and produces a copy of its own source code as its only output. Here is a quine in Python: _='_=%r;print _%%_';print _%_ Do you know any? Share them below 👇

Not only is today's date a palindrome, it's also an ambigram. You can read it left to right, right to left, and also upside down #nerdalert

Always a pleasure to talk shop with @brownorama, and this ep. of A Lens A Day was particularly fun. We chat about the complexity of remote facilitation, the difference between content "topics" and "containers", and how planning a workshop is a lot like prepping a D&D session.
If you thought A Lens A Day - Conversations about Information Architecture couldn't get any more esoteric, behold episode 30! @brownorama and @eaton talk the Lens of Topic vs. Container "If you're using it like a category, it's a category." -- Jeff youtu.be/k-KAlXgL-jM

So, last week @beep and I had a fascinating conversation with @petermcreaper and @mkeftz about the work they're doing on @interplayapp; among other things we circled around the ideas Peter mentioned in his post about design artifacts… it's worth a read. pete.studio/notes/design-fil…

5. It’s about the language teams use to communicate!
Evolution of a software engineer’s perspective: 1. It’s about the code! 2. It’s about the design! 3. It’s about the requirements! 4. It’s about the human coordination!

In Spanish, attention is something you lend, in German, something you gift. You “do” attention in Italian and French. Does our relationship with attention change depending on whether we do attention, or gift it, or lend it? Read more @aredotna are.na/blog/tenderness-share…

"In the context of content modeling, the process of “dechunking” is fundamentally about making meaning more available." A delightful dialogue on content sensemaking, by @eaton autogram.is/discussing/quali… #contentstrategy #contentsystems

If you or your team need a crash-course in design system fundamentals, @beep has just rolled out four new video training courses on the subject. They're available for free at the @AquentGymnasium! ethanmarcotte.com/wrote/aque…

Debated a showy April 1st joke update to the company web site, but decided to keep it subtle.
