a crazy idea: the fact that most (if not close to all) models, papers, are all going to be obsolete in a few years

even though they feel so new today

creating and destroying; built flying cars & autonomous vehicles, now building /faust, more here: /july, web: july.rocks

how do you see natural data? same obsolescence in a few years?

Data has a much longer shelf life than the process 

Content > Methods & tools

Methods & tools are always a means to an end, not the end. Easy to get confused imo

its like how smartphones evolve quickly, but the data on them doesn't 

its because the format of the data is relatively unchanged (standards don't change) but the configuration of the tools that use them do

in a skeptical/conservative sense, I suppose I agree (best simulation, etc). otoh, I would argue that we don't know what can't be approximated. whatever the architecture/method/tools, the internal ontology will free up precision over time (imho).
