This always hit me a odd.

If I could, I would.

And it would be incredibly immoral to demand excessive profits for your downloadable if distribution was free.

The music industry's monopoly is luckily being eroded these days. Now they can try to work on market terms.

As long as these are not accidental invariants.

I have had this conversation with the team. I lead, who started to use properties of the ID for ordering etc.

An ID is an identifiers. It supports exactly the operation of comparing two IDs to establish identity.

When you start to treat them as something else that is not guaranteed, you will see weird things happening.

You don't have to. You can absorb the risk. Which most orgs do.

You are aware that many places don't accept cash, right?

I should be the last one to defend the existing system.

But IMHO DEI answers the wrong question.

Worthwhile lives does not come from equal access to the hamster wheel.

I am much more pro UBI structures og negative taxation - which are inherently difficult to make descriminatory as there is no personal judgement of the people to receive it.

You could also say that DEI is easier to defend when human work was more valuable and capital was cheaper.

Or maybe the metaphor works alright, but the math community are still building resilience to this change.

Yes, so you are elevating the probable to the possible.

This is like me saying that it is more productive to work using pen and paper because it is not prone to electric failures in thunderstorms.

It is right under a certain low probability event that I myself can define and you cannot refute it.

Back in the 2006 I did not have to login to my Windows machine, I also did have my configuration.

It is because you guys are entirely logged into a very small subset of systems.

You are apparently also not able to separate the different concerns of authentication and identification.

You could easily envision a system where you can ID without any auth.

You being narrow minded is not me gaslighting.

Arguably it is inherent to drug discovery that there are aspects of the process we don't understand - but we can conclude that a drug works.

So naturally, doctors should be much more welcoming to these types of inventions.

It is likely also a blind angle for mathematicians. Inherently they know exactly what goes on to whatever granularity they please. One of the benefits with not having to consider the real world.

What?

You can easily have you own configuration without logging in.

Arguably, you'd still have better productivity had you not have to sign-in.

So you are still making a trade-off

Ah yes, you found the perfect argument to give sec people full and uncontrolled reign.

Not is it probable that people will take over our system. But is it possible.

You are paltering.

The premise was not to enhance security, but to design a world where security and productivity are not tradeoffs.
