@kilpatds @Twotired @david_chisnall it is not mostly stock, in NY or Silly Valley you can get that salary for senior positions with bonuses, then you add stock.

@jwildeboer afaik this is already happening in various places, for example on california, where they hooked up user's batteries to the grid (includong EV's), and the utility was able to pull into the grid at peak time to avoid blackouts. They also changed building code to require all new construction to have solar panels. The EU otoh is very behing on both central and distributed battery. And I see no mandates to install solar in the southern states where a crapton of energy could be made.

@jwildeboer I have tought for many years about the supposed abundance of digital goods, and one problem is that the situation is incorrectly stated. Digital goods are asymmetrical. They are aboundant after creation. But they don't pop into existence done. Creation relies on scarce resources (time/people). So the imbalance is what it makes it hard to deal with, and a pure capitalistic approach tries to extend that scarcity beyond creation, to make a profit.

@filippo @jornfranke I wouldn't say they are necessarily easier, but we stand on the shoulder of giants, these days we have tools and knowledge the RSA pioneers hadn't even dreamt of yet, so a lot of the pitfalls are much easier to avoid. The cryptography community also builds bullet proof algorithms these days, not just primitives everyone has to figure out how tp make secure by themselves. All that said ML-KEM and ML-DSA's power and timing side-channel analysis is much harder, but doable!

@agl@infosec.exchange this is not wrong.
