Even Linus is conflating “doing more” with “being more productive”. A car factory could, if they wanted, pump 10x more cars out the door. But qualiry would decrease these would be full of defects, so in the end you weren’t more productive
I don’t care if there’s more PRs. It’s just and illusion of productivity
Productivity = Doing more things Efficiency = Doing the right things
I wrote a whole thesis on the subject AMA
Where can I read your thesis?
