I absolutely wouldn't buy a Tesla (or subscribe to Starlink) with him in charge. I've also more or less given up Twitter...

Re: Just need more parameters…
I do a lot of financial numerical stuff and the weirdness in FP precision even when you have lots of bits to play with is something we have to pay close attention to otherwise the results can go very skew whiff.
I was involved in a biochemistry project that got hit by this a few years ago. Luckily for us it was very obvious as the models started outputting negative concentrations of a ligand around a receptor (which without a quick rewrite of the laws of physics can't exist).

Re: Actually the most inappropriate applications
>but mostly they seem to be written at the same time, by the same people, and to the same dreadful standard as the rest of the documentation.
I once had "ownership" of a troublesome datascience system forced on me. A lot of the problems were self-inflicted, so every time I saw an issue twice I documented the hell out of it. This meant I just sent them the link and told them to come back if it's not fixed. After a while the data scientists started emailing the links to one another and the service desk also did the same. The end result was I could get on and do something useful and the data scientists could get back to work quicker. An added bonus was that any problems not in the FAQ were often hard enough to be fun to work on.

Exactly this.

I'm a [BMI] healthy weight and suffer from that exact problem. I've had discussions with the people who are always cold and asked them which item of clothing they'd like me to remove next (leaving me in my underwear)...
