Mark my words flanges will now appear in a stats question in the next two years - it’s inevitable

Just seen a sign for pipes and flanges. I now want to see what the workshop looks like - flanges?

I like big. And it’s a shared space to explore. So I still want that which you get from a whiteboard but I get the benefits of the tech.

Nah they can remember stuff overwritten on them by kids coming to the board - although that seems to be a dying thing. I also still like to stand by a board and be able to interact with it rather than sitting at a pad or visualiser

Should that have been not A A? But the answer to the question 😉 must surely be in Hamlets soliloquy?

I guess so. I am trying to think of an example where we could say knowledge had changed which suggests a replacement rather than a forgetting which feels different. But there still seems a forgetting of the thing I used to know incorrectly…

I think that knowledge is destroyed when it is replaced. I guess I might remember for a while my mistake but i suspect it does not stick especially if the change wasn’t overtly consciously corrected? Its quite hard to be definitive because i obviously wouldn’t be aware of this myself…

This feels very philosophical to complement the question - what is a question!!!

I might have at one point thought (and remembered) that Glasgow was the capital of Scotland, but then was corrected - what happens to that correct knowledge as I no longer recall it? Feels that memories can be destroyed completely??

Does new learning or learning that replaces old knowledge or incorrect knowledge lead to the annihilation of the old knowledge?
