Even in winter, the wood whispers to tramp its paths. Its Sprites and Woodwose may sleep through days demanding our heaviest coats, but its mysteries do not. Bare branches scratch the low sky and still its mysteries sing. We walk for wonder. We walk for cold magics. – #EmilyCBanting, 1981

timely distinction between the blandness of algorithmic simulacrum and the authenticity of drawing.
drawing is seeing, is how I was taught design. machines can never see, they only record.

the Authenticity part could be describing J Dilla's unquantized style of sampling

sometimes tell clients I can instantly generate a near-100% click-through rate on their homepage
…by replacing the homepage with a single green button in the middle of the screen that says "click here to enter"
once we agree how useless that would be, it helps push them to articulate actual goals

Ackoff's quote is equally relevant here: "Managers who don't know how to measure what they want settle for wanting what they can measure."
Managers who only know how to measure NPS ask for NPS increases.
Managers who only know click maximizing ask for more clicks.
Neither is actually valuable.
