It's not really one or the other, clearly there is a level at which we have expanded our rationality far beyond its basic use to serve our needs, and built a society where we in fact never really get to have what we want and if you're sexually frustrated purchasing it is criminalized. We built our own cages because we're afraid we won't be able to wake ourselves up out of bed in the morning.

I disagree.

There are many non-professional programmers who get baffled by various "computerisms" such as

0.1 + 0.2 != 0.3

Excel tries to hide this but ends up doing even stranger things if you push it hard enough. I think a lot of people who could use computers to put their skills on wheels just give up because of this "lack of empathy" that manifests here and in other places. If you do

0.1 + 0.2 - 0.3

on a pocket calculator you get the right answer and you should get the same right answer in a Jupyter notebook. The only person who should be exposed to the base 2 arithmetic of the computer is a professional programmer who knows assembly language.

There are numerous social consequences of this that are harmful such as the perception that computer programmers are "grinds" and "nerds" and the idea that "idea people" are more worthy than the people that execute, etc.

You are still free to do that thing.

No one is stopping you from buying a car without seatbelts. Companies are being restricted from selling a car without seatbelts. Companies aren't people.

If you believe this is a restriction of your personal freedom, then ANY regulation on ANY company that you might interact with, for anything at all is a restriction of your personal freedom as well - because those actions ultimately could result in the company not providing a good or service that you desire.

And if that is your definition of personal freedom, then you should clarify your position as an anarchist.

Yeah. There's a finite amount of resources and a literally never ending avalanche of patients. At some point they're going to have to make a cold calculation.

I don't really know how it works in the US but here in Brazil it's actually pretty easy to order laboratory tests and imaging studies. There's taxpayer funded public health care but it can't handle the demands of the entire population so people would rather pay for the ultrasound or CT scan than wait two years for the government to provide it. An ultrasound costs about $30, an MRI costs about $150 and the price of a CT scan is somewhere between those two.
Interestingly, mlc's web-llm runs much better on my iGPU than dGPU when the model size goes over available dGPU vram. Llama 2 7B runs faster on dGPU, but when I switch to Llama 2 13B suddenly my iGPU outperforms. I think because the iGPU effectively utilizes shared memory?
I was probably four when I fell against the sandbox in the playground and knocked one of my top front teeth right out. I carried it inside to the teacher, who had me bite on a paper towel to stop the bleeding and sent me home with the tooth wrapped in another paper towel in my pocket.

About a week later I fell against a large wooden block in the classroom and knocked the other top front tooth clean out.

I went for something over a year without top front teeth, but my adult teeth came in early, so it wasn't 2 or 3 years like it might have been.

This was a long time ago, and I still have both the adult teeth, although one of them died when I got hit in the face with a football in the third grade.

All to say that n=1 but it likely wouldn't have been the worst thing if the two teeth had come out.

In some fields research can’t be replicated later. Much of all autism research will NEVER be replicated because the population of those considered autistic is not stable over time.

Other research proves impossible to replicate because whatever experiment was not described in enough detail to actually replicate it, which should be grounds to immediately dismiss the research before publishing, but which can’t truly be caught if you don’t actually try to reproduce.

Finally these practical concerns don’t even touch on the biggest benefit of reproduction as standard which is that almost nobody wants to reproduce research as they are not rewarded for doing so. This would give somebody, namely those who want to publish something, a strong impetus to get that reproduction done which wouldn’t otherwise exist.

there is a significant performance penalty for bcd arithmetic, so bcd floating point has never been attractive to the customers for floating point: cray buyers, fortran programmers, gamers, analog circuit designers, climatologists

those people don't really care about the beginner issues you mention

if you're willing to accept a performance penalty in exchange for easier learning, you can implement decimal arithmetic in software; many people have, and it's in the cobol and sql standards and the python standard library. the version i implemented in bubbleos is 83 lines of c, https://gitlab.com/kragen/bubbleos/blob/master/yeso/decimal.... https://gitlab.com/kragen/bubbleos/blob/master/yeso/decimal.... and compiles to about 1.3k of code

but a lot of us are using cpython in jupyter to prototype algorithms we want to run as fast as possible, so we want it to behave like the floating-point hardware does

You are entirely right that user-facing programs should strive to hide IEEE 754 artifacts (see, for example, the Android calculator app that uses exact real arithmetic).

But if you are programming, there are tons of quote-unquote computerisms that we have for a good reason but are not really intuitive for newcomers. The whole concept of variables, pointers and general indirections, zero-based indexing, (pseudo)randomness, Unicode, time complexity, concurrency and parallelism and so on. Many (but not all, I admit) professional programmers take them as granted but they are just as arcane as the concept of base-2 floating points.

Peer review is also not part of the scientific method. It's nice, but it's not strictly part of the method.

It may be more accurate to suggest that repeatability is part of the scientific method. But even that is not strictly true.

Consider, the single longest running scientific work was not repeatable, and was not shared with anyone outside the cadre of people doing it. Around 3000 years ago, a secretive caste of astrologers/scribes watched the heavens, and recorded their observations for several centuries. They did not publish their findings, thus making them anecdotal (yes, that's what anecdotal means, just that it wasn't published). The exact circumstances and variables were never repeatable, due to the movements of the celestial bodies, precession, etc.

Similarly, the UQ pitch drop experiment, having not yet completed, has not been repeated. But it's still an entirely valid scientific experiment.

Someone might even agree with you that this kind of minimal
and general regulation is useful (eg 'no labeling poison as food')

Please consider a more realistic example. We're not talking about taking a jar of rat poison and labeling it "chocolate" and the need to prevent this with a law.

Think of the more general cases of adulterated foods and/or foods with unacceptable levels of harmful chemicals whose like mercury, arsenic, etc. These are things that consumers cannot practically check for.

A reasonable free-market response might be that if consumers really think this is important, they will pay more for products that have been vetted by some trusted third party and therefore the government is not needed. There could even be multiple such third parties and consumers could vote with their wallets for the one(s) that they find best. This already exists in a sense in the form of organizations that certify food as halal, kosher, etc.

I don't totally disagree with this, but I think it is ripe for corruption and monopoly in ways that a well-functioning government is not.

But that doesn't mean that all the other regulation is
necessary nor useful.

Nobody is claiming that all existing regulation is necessary or useful. That is not a good-faith interpretation of anything anybody is saying.

On the top of my head: Say you want to research biological data from the Mariana trench.

Or even worse: Some passing by comet, or planet/moon/whatever in the solar system. And just to make things EVEN worse, you need to analyze the data in some destructive way.

Certainly very plausible scenarios, but also some which could prohibitively expensive to do multiple times.
You are making an argument for replication not against it by stressing how meticulously documenting your process is an “if”, strewing how things like a supplier for a chemical can change and render reproduction impossible, and even if an observation can only be replicated in one clean room that means you effectively only have as long as that clean room remains opens to replicate it.

You are almost stressing all the ways we are producing garbage rendered non-reproducible with deficient documentation of processes, changes in supply, and changes in the environment. All three can be minimized through peer replication.
> It's just too difficult to manage.

Bold words.

I've heard plenty of people with various opinions on this, but I suspect that you've cut to the heart of it here.

It's not that it can't work.

It's just harder to make it work.

...and that hard work has to be done by people who previously just sat everyone in a room and expected them to do their things with no additional effort required; and having to do that extra effort on top of what they normally do is uncomfortable for them.

There's no denying that remote work makes some people's lives more difficult; but it indubitably makes the life of others easier.

It's a trade off; and anecdotal 'it works' or 'it doesn't work' comments are just people commenting on their personal situation; what is much less clear, is if it actually has a meaningful impact at scale, or what that impact is.
We have very little idea of how the conversations played out. Did the guy say that initially, or did he say that after being pressed after saying that they could not contact the other airport directly? The former suggests someone who does not want to solve the problem. The latter suggests that the customer had pressed on until they became the problem.

It is easy to attribute malice to someone when the solution seems to be obvious. It is easy to imply actions or inaction when you have no basis for it outside of a feeling that doing X will result in Y. It's more difficult to see the consequences of that obvious solution.

I spend a good part of some days tracking down and trying to resolve problems because of a combination of policies and software that sucks. Sometimes I make people incredibly happy because I accomplished something noone else could. Sometimes I leave people disappointed, not because their problems are unsolvable but because overstepping certain bounds will break things elsewhere. When I try placing myself in the airline's position, I'm seeing a situation with broken policies and procedures, but also of incredible consequences if circumventing thos policies and procedures was the norm.

>then ANY regulation on ANY company that you might interact with, for anything at all is a restriction of your personal freedom as well - because those actions ultimately could result in the company not providing a good or service that you desire.

Very nearly this YES. I don't think it's quite that absolute, but pretty close! Many, many restrictions on personal freedom are entirely justified, and are in fact extremely good, to the point that almost no one disagrees they are warranted, but they are most definitely still restrictions on personal freedom. I am not an anarchist who thinks that the government shouldn't exist or that personal freedom is literally the only value that matters, but that doesn't mean we should lie to ourselves about the fact that, in order to live in a functioning society, countless of our personal freedoms have to be given up. Many of them are so small and inconsequential that most people never even notice, but that doesn't change the fact that we have given them up.
So, what do you think is the fix / "correct" / "right" ?

For anyone who's interested, dental work costs half as much, or less, in Bangkok. I worked there for two years, and I needed five crowns -- multiple dentists had told me the enamel on my front upper teeth was thin and going to go sooner or later. So I got five crowns for about $2500 in Bangkok. I did not shop around at all, I just went to the local chain dentists and sat in the chair. You could get cheaper. My current dentist (Seattle) says they did excellent work.
