Even if you get your workers bonded, you may still have to do background checks. What if the bonding agency insists on the checks to do business with you? Or just offers lower rates if you do the checks?
You simply don't define infinity and -infinity as numbers.
You can if you want to. The surreal numbers are a number system that's a lot like the real numbers, but it contains the infinite ordinals and multiplicative inverses for them. However, even the surreals don't have a multiplicative inverse for zero. The biggest downside to the surreals is that any interval of surreals is "too big" to be a set--it's a proper class, just like the ordinals themselves--so pretty much all of the proofs of theorems about the surreals have to be based on transfinite induction.

Yes, because the organizations that use FOSS are still a small minority, and for a sizable organization to switch to FOSS is very good news .
