<p>I mean... Atom, too, think in some Interpretation of the word. But that interpretation does not help anyone understand or do anything, its mostly useless. 
Molecules are at a similar point of abstraction, so I remain skeptical</p>

<p>Well the answer here is: other factors. 
Safe, supervised strength training is great, but construction workers do not have that luxury, but instead heavy stuff to carry in (unhealthy)positions dictated by the task itself rather than your training regimen.<p>Then there are toxic chemicals on site they are exposed to, which attack lung, skin, bones, muscles.
Then there is dust everywhere all the time, wood dust, stone dust, plastic particles, metal particles. All not great for your lungs, skin an eyes. 
So the strength training alone would be great, and many construction workers do have a lot of muscle mass, but the rest ist just poisoned.</p>

<p>Dont be too harsh on the first comment, I'm Sure he's a good guy.
Interesting to see that hossenfelder thing, I was'nt aware of it. 
Her videos got recommended to me but title+thumb always felt like an over the top commentary with more drama than actual problem to be aware of.<p>So I never clicked and at some point youtube stopped.</p>

<p>I see your point, but thats a really bad comparison. We are pretty certain that there is no giant dinosaur in a lake, but in terms of fundamental research there is a lot we cannot really explain a great many things. We dont even know if we are "looking" correctly, with the right concept in mind.<p>I agree that money spending must be carefully considered, but for this research there really is no replacement. You can shuffle public spending around, but an Experiment not dont will explain no part of the Universe. If the countries and Supranationals that are able to dont fund them we will be stuck with what we know now until they do.<p>It is a lot of money, but it is also the only way. Does that meaningfully stop the EU and all others from doing their thing? I would argue no. We can still afford it and so we should.</p>

<p>Said the grumpy grandpa, shaking his hand at the cloudy sky.
I dont know what value that comment contributed, funding research is always a long shot. And often times it fails, but that is kinda its purpose, we dont know what we dont know.</p>

<p>maybe that wasn't that good of an Idea either then? 
I would argue that this kind of interference is in every way problematic, especially when the outset goal is to erode trust in democratic institutions, which it is in this case.</p>

<p>I use different languages for different purposes. Although bash euns everywhere, its a walking footgun and thus I only use it for small sub 100 line no or one option Scripts.
the rest goes to one of Python, which nowadays runs almost everywhere, Julia or a compiled language for the larger stuff</p>
