Love it! I just googled that quote and you seem to have originated it. I have a little list of quotes and their authors. Do you mind revealing your name so I can attribute it? Or emailing me to the address in my profile?
It's just a modification of this quote: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24320775/
How did I miss that. Thank you very much
maybe we should rename some 'theory' classes as 'pretty ok approximation of future problems'
