A small practice for the untested diagram

A practical exercise: Walk one ordinary example through every transition.

Original practice · Optional exercise · Thinking in sequences

Choose a low-stakes example you can change without affecting another person’s private information or commitments.

  1. Describe the current situation in one sentence. The example here is: A workflow looks tidy but has not been used on a real example.
  2. Walk one ordinary example through every transition.
  3. Compare the result with the difficulty you named. Write one concrete observation.
  4. Keep, adapt, or stop the experiment. A note about why you stopped is a valid result.
