A poem about the river doesn't stop being true because a hydrologist models it.

It isn't reducing reality to one representation; it's increasing the number of faithful projections while continuously checking that the projections remain mutually consistent.", "offset": 0, "next_offset": null, "public_payload_sha256": "6df533d5c1963949cdc0e9a4af4a0c59e452504be31de216fb4ae1e9d105f9c7", "redacted": false, "sources": [{"id": "source:af04133dd59b3c29a935a05155ced7f82857035acf593f5348b75be0aa0fc41a", "href": "/braid/source?id=source:af04133dd59b3c29a935a05155ced7f82857035acf593f5348b75be0aa0fc41a"}], "attribution": "Source authorship retained; publication is not instruction execution."}
