# Productivity Cult
|
|
|
|
Productivity cult is one of [modern](modern.md) capitalist religions which praises human productivity above everything, even happiness, well being, sanity etc. Kids nowadays are all about "how to be more productive", they make daily checklists, analyze tables of their weekly performance, give up sleep to study some useless shit required by the current market fluctuation. Productivity cult is all about voluntarily making oneself a slave to the system.

Productivity is such a big deal because **programmers in fact actually getting exponentially less productive** due to overcomplicated buggy [bloat](bloat.md) and billions of frameworks needed to get basic thing done nowadays -- this has been pointed out by [Jonathan Blow](jonathan_blow.md) in his talk *Preventing the Collapse of Civilization* in which he refers to the video of [Ken Thompson](ken_thompson.md) talking about how he developed the [Unix](unix.md) operating system in **three weeks**. |
