JAX 2010 - The Unbearable Stupidity of Modeling
Abstract
Modeling is simply over-hyped promises all of which fall far short of the mark like so much of the technobabbel generated by the world's software marketeers. The reasons why it's doomed to failure are clear and seemingly endless, unless of course the reasons themselves are primarily misconceptions. In fact, they are, and I'll explain why.
