I adore this talk / post.
Found it last year and definitely took extensive notes. Influenced my research a lot and led me to some great thinkers...
Thanks for the original writing and work!

I feel honored. Let me know if you have questions. I have a bunch of books on the topic.

I’ll have to take you up on that!
Who would you say are your top 2-3 thinkers on this idea? Specifically in the overlap between programming and metaphor.
I’ve been most influenced by Tim Rohrer and Tony Veale and don’t know a ton of others
Alvaro, do I know you well enough to say that you'll say Eco and point to The Search for the Perfect Language? I haven't actually read that one yet, but if IIRC that's one of the ideas in that book, and I know you've pointed me to it in the past.

About programming and metaphors in the Lakoff sense I haven’t seen much. Maybe this book. Otherwise I’ve written for about metaphors applied to different areas of programming

This book has lots of relations with programming due to how it explains categorization
