This is one of my top funniest Twitter accounts ever - I remember when @hyperrealestate was putting this together when we were busy tinkering with several bots (but this is by far the best!). Amazing to see this in the @FT - who would've thought? 😂
After ~5 years, it's lovely to see this neglected archive of (satirical) Python 2 scripts and crawled .csv files gain some recognition. Constantly surprised @hackneyalamode survives the Twitter API updates tbh. ft.com/content/35ae83c9-0d87… Thanks @timhayward and @FT / @FTMag

Here's a nice review of How to Run a City Like Amazon, and Other Fables in @IJURResearch. We still have some copies of our limited edition print run available to buy at meatspacepress.com. You can also download the book for free there.
How do planners envision a future worth creating?  This semester, I challenged master's students to read a chapter from How to Run a City Like Amazon, and Other Fables (meatspacepress.com/) and then respond with their own visions and translations into a planning scenario.
