The heart of [the] process is finding a question you want to answer.

Over dinner tonight Avvai shared her ambitions to submit a proposal The Pudding, a small digital publisher that specialises in data visualisation and visual storytelling. I want to help make that happen.

I couldn’t recall having come across The Pudding before, but there work is epic, and has re-excited my desire to dig into some visualisations for the walk too.

And it turns out, the first piece of their work I gravitated towards just now — The Structure of Stand-Up Comedy — was one I’d actually bookmarked on the 4th of November 2023, almost exactly a year ago.

Probably it reached me through Hacker News or Lobsters the first time, and it caught my attention this time on account of our stand-up routines out at the cabin, led by Kyle.
