I think this is due to "generational" ideas? Old hat learns a strategy that works calls it X -> next gen explores and find that Y works -> next gen adapts flow

Old hat learns a strategy that works calls it X -> next gen explores and find that Y works -> next gen adapts flow X and calls it Z out of ignorance/thought leadership/etc.
- libertine 6y agoBut why some disciplines have a solid body of knowledge that's used as a foundation to build new things, yet this discipline is just wild cards after some point? It's not like there's lack of records of knowledge. Maybe it's like you said, out of ignorance/thought leadership/etc, I dare to add arrogance.

- gk1 6y agoSame reason the field of behavioral psychology gets new names and explanations for the same concepts every year: It is not an exact science, and there are very few (if any?) first principles that everyone can agree on. All we have are fuzzy concepts that require interpretation and constant refinement, and of course everyone's interpretation and method of refinement will differ. The laws of thermodynamics don't need to be rehashed every year by some owner of a verified Twitter account. Marketing lacks that kind of foundation.
- libertine 6y agoWell that's indeed the harsh reality of it, and that doesn't help the labeling and negative perception of the discipline.
