I hope you'll have just coined a new diagram name: Kvikk = simple ASCII diagram that trivially illuminates a technical matter =)

bonus points that mainstream LLM’s can trivially train on them and produce them. =)


Kool and thx. 72 and 108 divide cleanly by 9, so it’s pretty dang accurate too.


My last name is Kvick (Swedish for quick) and I was delighted to see a variation on it used for something so cool as those diagrams. Please make it a thing.


Fun. Will try. Perhaps we will hear from some of these people sharing a cognate surname:

  Kvikk    Norwegian
  Kvick    Swedish
  Kvik     Danish
  Kvikur   Faroese
  Kvikur   Icelandic
  Kwiek    Dutch
  Quick    German
  Kwik     Frisian
  Quick    English


I at least know that there's a Norwegian chocolate bar called Kvikk and a Danish kitchen design company called Kvik.

In Dutch (which I happen to be fluent in) Kwiek is sometimes used in writing but I've never heard it spoken.
