Those are some descriptions of things, but how do they work as analogies? They don't explain anything.

- caslon 5y ago"Thing does not Fulfill Requirements so you don't get Desired Outcome." This is a pattern that literally every human understands in their own niche. "The Pizza was made with Cake Flour so it's Low-Quality." "The Blade was made with Low-Carbon Steel so it's Unsafe and Weak." "The Cable was made Without the Proper Materials so It's Subpar.
- Talanes 5y agoThat's not the problem the average person is trying to solve though, they want to know how they're supposed to tell the different kinds of flour apart.
- caslon 5y agoStill pretty simple: "Just like with flour, keep them in their own containers, and keep track of which container is which. If you lose track, bake something small as a test or test the cable by plugging it in."
- xboxnolifes 5y agoI much prefer the other solution we have for flour. Having them labeled. Literally just need colored bands on the cable like a resister.
- HPsquared 5y agoThey tried that for USB 3.0: blue plastic instead of black. (though that was also a bit of a disaster)
- hervature 5y agoThe analogies are direct. They all describe processes that fail with similar substitutes that yield similar results.
