I highly suggest the book "The Last Night: Anti-Work, Atheism, Adventure" by Federico Campagna.
One of my favourite quotes:
> "Finally, we now have at our disposal a set of technologies that would be able to make most of human labour redundant. Instead of profiting from the ease allowed by a production devolved to machines, humans find themselves competing against technology and are thus forced to reduce their demands and expectations to the level of the machine. We try to work as much and as tirelessly as machines do, and by doing so we turn ourselves into second-rate production machines, never as efficient as the real ones." ~ Federico Campagna
- sneak 5y agoI'm fairly certain that most of the work done by humans working long hours today is beyond the technology of the machines, for the moment. There's no machine that can do my job, for example, and I suspect that that is true for most extremely career-oriented people.
