A buyer asks your Indore shop whether a returned tyre can go back after ninety days. What goes on the task?
A Write the state and the date on any task a rule settles. B Write that the shop takes tyres back within ninety days, since that is what you do. C Leave the return window out, so the answer has to work it out on its own.
Check my recall Why this matters A model is trained once and read months later. Published testing on fast-changing facts shows the gap plainly: a question whose answer moved is answered with the old one. The rules that decide commerce move like that, and they move by state.
Write the state, the date and the local habit a task's answer depends on.

Write the state and the date on any task a rule settles. Say whether the fact is law, company policy or local habit. A task built on a rule that has since moved marks a right answer wrong. Task A transport clerk writes a task about moving a consignment from one district to the next.
Weak approach Writes: the goods are worth more than the limit, so what paperwork does the driver carry? Says the limit is common knowledge in the trade and leaves it out.
Stronger approach Writes the state, the month, and the limit in force that month, then asks what the driver carries. Adds that a state sets its own limit inside its borders, and names the day it was read.
Why the stronger approach works Common knowledge in one district is not common a year later or a state away. The second task can be marked in either place.
Try a changed situation A leasing task says the tenant must give two months' notice. The state's rent act says one month, and the agreement says two.
Make something yourself Take a task from your own trade whose answer a rule decides. Write the state and the date on it. Then say whether the rule is law, company policy or local habit.
