On the usefulness of blockchain, I think the analytical case for our financial system being on blockchain is significantly weaker than the analytical case for better forecasts being useful for policymaking.
With my original comment, I was implicitly drawing a distinction between 'cannot be useful' and 'has not been useful':
I like this! You could avoid the haggling over percentages by having coarse fixed boundaries (e.g. 10/90, 30/70, 50/50 as the three options for fractional resignations). It would make tournaments like professional chess more interesting by letting you cash out a good position without needing to accept a draw where points are split equally.
I wonder if a better formulation is that morale is roughly, "the belief that you are winning for a reason" with a boost from (1) contributing and (2) effort.
I prefer this for a few reasons:
I am intrigued by the 'solution seeking a problem' framing. Unlike blockchain, there are a number of domains and decisions that would analytically benefit from more accurate predictions about the future (e.g. issue prioritisation, campaigning decisions in politics, domestic policy decisions, geopolitical actions) even if they have practically not adopted forecasting widely. Better forecasts can prevent worse counterfactual worlds, e.g. by preventing planning mistakes leading to rapid inflation, encouraging better resilience planning, etc.

Having taken a quick look at the source for Claude's data, it seems like a reasonable read is that the doctors are simply not well-calibrated on the relevance of the patients statements and redirect them away too quickly. Not sure this means they were 'rude',
The HCAHPS survey measures 'courteousness' by asking patients, and consistently find that in ~85% of cases, doctors are rated 'always' respectful and courteous. From my understanding, a further ~10% are rated as 'usually' respectful and courteous. This is not a perfect measure, but seems better than u... (read more)
