I love the exchange, but the backdrop of capitalism demanding results is grim.
I just want everyone to enjoy exploring and sharing without worrying about grants...
Eh, until we're truly a post scarcity society (if such a thing is even possible) scientist would have to justify use of resources no matter what the system we use.
Stop bringing your practical realism into my dreamworld moral absolutism
You use resources you have to justify them. Maybe to a voluntary committee. Maybe to a Soviet. Maybe to the supreme leaders appointee. Maybe to a sub unit of the technocratic cabal.
Since you're going to have to explain yourself anyway, may as well just do whatever you want and explain it to the court afterwards.
