In my experience the most difficult for us techies to lay down to somebody outside is the analogy. Is the make or break of entire explanation. And usually I fail 75% of the time right there at the start. Some recover later when I go with examples, but most of them are lost from beginning. Yeah, I know, I'd make a terrible teacher.
- nubbins 6y agoI think the key here is the analogy is just a warm up for the actual full detailed explanation. Where I find analogies always fail is in journalistic tech books that just use analogies to explain concepts but never get down to low level details and leave the reader with a vague feeling of understanding something, but if you asked them about any of the implications of the model explained they can't state anything.
