Technical Problems

Technical problems are ones where we think we know pretty well exactly how to solve them, algorithmically. Scientific problems may be technical, but are differentiated because I cannot describe algorithmically how to solve them. Instead, we should take an experimental approach, probably trying at least two different ways, and seeing which works best. Philosophical problems in this context means that I am not even sure how to phrase a scientific question or a testable hypothesis, but I recognize that there is a problem.
