Bet you’re fun at parties as they say. I totally understand why simplifying assumptions are helpful in modelling and definitely don’t need you to explain that.

I totally understand why simplifying assumptions are helpful in modelling and definitely don’t need you to explain that. It also is a bit ridiculous if you think literally about it which makes it something that is fun to laugh about as here.
- kergonath 2y agoYes, sure, I get the jokes. I just found it puzzling that someone would think it stopped. And I don’t talk about work at parties anyway :)
- eminent101 2y agoBut nobody in this thread thought it (simplifying assumptions) stopped. You seem to be making an assumption that someone thought that and then posting long explanations that nobody asked for. I read the "P.S." of grand-grand-parent comment as good humor. Nothing there implied that they really thought that simplifying assumptions would/should stop. Imagine a world where every bit of humor is interpreted literally and then refuted pedantically! What kind of a world would that be?
