Analogies are great to memorize the content. They don't explain the content because they're not 1:1 translatable.

- afiori 7y agoDoes that mean that analogies themselves are an analogy of hash functions? (not serious; hope it is not against the guidelines) More seriously analogies are better for a bigger picture of a complex system, as they effectively describe mode of interactions. The dog/smell analogy was not bad but you have to also add a role for the other actor in the system (here I would say: the third party, and the database)
