description: "Long hours, an excessive workload, and a lack of sleep have become a badge of honor for modern professionals. But it should be a mark of stupidity, the authors argue. Sadly, this isn’t just a problem for large organizations—bitcoiners are burning themselves out the same way. The answer to better productivity isn’t more hours—it’s less waste and fewer things that induce distraction and persistent stress.

Two quotes in particular stood out to me, as they relate to Bitcoin, or, more accurately, the aspects of Bitcoin that relate to change and copyability. On change: 'Change makes things worse all the time. It's easier to fuck up something that's working well than it is to genuinely improve it. But we commonly delude ourselves into thinking that more time, more investment, more attention is always going to win.' On copying: 'Copying does more harm to the copier than to the copied. When someone copies you, they are copying a moment in time. They don't know the thinking that went into getting to that moment in time [...] They're stuck with what you left behind.'"

quote: "That’s the great irony of letting passionate people work from home. A manager’s natural instinct is to worry about his workers not getting enough work done, but the real threat is that too much will likely get done. And because the manager isn’t sitting across from his worker anymore, he can’t look in the person’s eyes and see burnout."

description: "The Industrial Revolution's 'under one roof' model of conducting work is steadily declining owing to technology that is rapidly creating virtual workspaces and allowing workers to provide their vital contribution without physically clustering together.

Bitcoin requires meaningful work, creative work, thoughtful work, important work—this type of effort takes stretches of uninterrupted time to get into the zone. But in the modern office such long stretches usually can’t be found. Instead, it’s just one interruption after another.

In Remote, authors Fried and DHH will convince readers that letting all or part of work teams function remotely is a great idea---and they're going to show precisely how a remote work setup can be accomplished."
