Don't get me wrong: Doing all the approximations to get a fast, visually appealing animation is perfect for what this demo aims to do.
Fluid simulations for science or engineering (think airflow around the next Boeing design or simulations of planet formation) are still very hard. And that is not because physicists are stupid, bad at coding or easily replaced with machine learning.
- btrettel 7y agoSorry, I was unclear. I agree that the demo does what it intended to do. I was just listing a few additional reasons to believe it may not be physically accurate as-is. I know from previous discussions on HN that many readers are interested in this.
- petschge 7y agoTotally good idea to do that. I just want other readers to be aware for what applications that is useful and for what applications other techniques are more appropriate.
