INTERTEMPORAL DIVISION OF ABILITY AND BIAS (NOT LABOR)

We should try to kill off the term ‘division of labor’. Principally because it implies the labor theory of value and relative equality of individuals in laboring.

The problem is, labor – meaning transformation of physical state – is of little value (and we are of little difference to one another), where as the organizing people into networks of production, distribution, trade, using incentives, where those incentives require the application of credit, money, and reward, is extremely difficult – and we differ in our ability to form networks of trust to do that, dramatically.

So I use the series: the intertemporal division of perception, ability, bias, cognition, knowledge, labor, negotiation, and advocacy. Which is quite wordy. But the short version might be reducible to “the intertemporal division of bias and ability”.

This is one of those memory devices that might take me six months or six hours. I have no idea.

But the intertemporal division of ability and bias, draws our attention to our marginal differences, where the division of labor draws attention to our marginal indifferences.
