I think this #challenge needs something life-affirming.

Kuhn's "Fifth Law of Thermodynamics" Measurement, Data, and Anomalies Alisa Bokulich and Federica Bocchi 3.1 Introduction A central component of Thomas Kuhn's philosophy of measurement is what he calls the fifth law of thermodynamics. According to this "law," there will always be discrepancies between experimental results and scientists' prior expectations, whether those expectations arise from theory or from other experimental data. These discrepancies often take the form of what Kuhn calls quantitative anomalies, and they play a central role in both normal and revolutionary science. Whether the effort to resolve these anomalies is taken to be a part of normal or revolutionary science depends in part on the ever-evolving and context-dependent standards of what Kuhn calls reasonable agreement. In The Structure of Scientific Revolutions (SSR), Kuhn identifies as one of the most important types of experiments those aimed at determining the values of the fundamental physical constants. Wh

We consid these points to the ongoing effort to determine the value of the grani. tional constant (G), which is the fundamental constant that Ke emphasizes as being particularly problematic in SSR. In Section 3.5, we discuss Kuhn's later reflections on the formati role that his earlier work on the philosophy of measurement and data had for the development of his views in SSR. By paying closer attention to Kuhn's work on the philosophy of measurement we are also able recover a key notion of scientific progress in Kuhn's thinking that goe beyond the increase in puzzl
