"I have learned that people decide what they think based upon narratives. A good story always has better results than merely listing out facts. Every good narrative has both characters and a plot."
I was listening to a podcast the other day where one of the people said that if people were solely interested in facts the phone book would be the most interesting book in the world.
- Qantourisc 13y agoSorry, the phone book contains data (witch should also be facts), but I'd consider it more data, then facts.
- corin_ 13y agoIs "fact" not in some cases a synonym of "data"? "Qantourisc; 144" might be read as data while "Qantourisc registered on HN 144 days ago" might be read as a fact.
