Hyperproductivity, and Skip To My Lou
July 27th, 2008
David Bock在给Neal Ford的 The Productive Programmer 的序里提到这个词:
We spent some time discussing that hyperproductivity and how to bottle it.
另一处提到这个词的是 Paul Virilio的blog
A worker in the textile industry in western France says, “I make the same movement six hundred times an hour. With the old machines, you could have a bit of a break. Now, it’s the computer that controls the assembly line and sets the pace.”With this level of hyperproductivity, in which a person can no longer keep up with the racing of his digital command tools, we are seeing a new epidemic, following the outbreak of stress. Repetitive Strain Injury, or RSI ─ acute inflammation of the bones and joints ─ is a new professional disease. It can lead to long-term paralysis of the employee’s hands.
但这不是──不仅仅是──身体和压力的问题。这是劳动的异化。这是现代化对人性的侵蚀。
再看一遍 Skip 2 My Lou 的 老视频 。再看一场 Rockets 的比赛。
正确的方式,高效的方式,全无浪费的方式,未必等价于有想象力的方式,美的方式,自己喜爱的方式。这才是资本主义的病根所在。
