I hate articles like this because it drops the nuance of the work being done. It's so much complicated than people are lazy now.
To your point, I think everyone has been getting tighter and tighter schedules. To be fair to the author, they could even be a good example of this. Where there's so much nuance to this topic they have deadlines, do they deep dive and outline possible effects and differences, maybe find some other seemingly unrelated studies to compare economic conditions? Or get the writing equivalent of the MVP out, so we can have these conversations about the nuance of it and just drive more traffic to the article in the process.
- over_bridge 5y agoUnmotivated is a better word for it than lazy. I think part of it is that jobs are so siloed and abstract now that it's hard to connect our efforts with the outcomes. Sometimes I get hit with a wave of 'all I do is stare at this rectangle and push buttons all day.' It's so far removed from what a single one of my ancestors would have considered time well spent. It's not a surprise that we're not jumping out of bed rearing to go. I know its not efficient but I'd love to just do an entire process end to end instead of many iterations of one piece of it - endlessly and without closure or satisfaction.
