- hvidgaard 9y agoThis is getting quite philosophical now. It depends on the intrepetation of "world". If we mean the universe then no, it is to our current understanding of it, not useful to model it's entirety using continuity, if we can only messure it discretely. If by world we mean a subset of the universe, then it makes perfect sense, because the world might be on the macro level where this "discretness" is far smaller than we ever want to go.
- hardlianotion 9y agoI think you should concentrate on the world model in my sentence rather than world. I have something I want to analyse. How is it useful to think about it and what techniques do I want to use?
