I don't see anyone in this thread asking for that

The first words in the comment I responded to are "stop being productive" but alright.
the eternal dilemma of the min-maxers and the roleplayers. the productivity cult are the min-maxers. living cannot be min-maxed.

even productivity cannot be min-maxed, save for the short term, for the simple reason that we don't know what productivity is. technological revolutions are the prime example of this, where each turn of each revolution shifts the entire idea of what being productive is.

And satisficing is a dirty word, apparently. :(
