Who wants to be a middle manager?
You're better off being a specialized worker and switch jobs every two years, you'll have the same lateral mobility as a manager but with a higher pay, usually.

a CEO or president of a big company almost exclusively does nothing else than that.
Every 'big decision' has been think tanked and safety proofed by at least a dozen accountants and middle managers. Your job as head of the company is nothing more than to secure next quarters payout of dividends for your shareholders. Don't rock the boat.
If you want to make big decisions go to your garage and build a start-up.

To answer the actual question about acceleration books; i read all of these

Mark Fisher: Capitalist Realism
Erik Davis: Techgnosis
Pierre Tiellhard de Chardin: The Phenomen of Man
Terence Mckenna (lectures)
George Dyson: Darwin Among the Machines
Noah Yuval Hararri: Sapiens, Homo Deus

Of these i think Erik Davis, Terence Mckenna, Mark Fisher. I really liked Terence Mckenna, Food Of The Gods is the only book of hos ive read, but its anthropology. I got into this because of the neo psychedelic movement. A few of these emphasize "boundary dissolution" (deteritorialization, appropriation ) which i think is a painful process, or the occult concept of "as above, so below," which is extremely insightful. I used to be optimistic about acceleration until I became emotionally invested in my cultural identity- so now id say the move is to live in light of the existence of the Leviathan (technocapital) and to try and steer it in positive directions, but unconditional acceleration or left-acceleration are potentially very bad. And so is the billionaire bunker thing, and so is the infinite jest jizz machine that would substitute the real world for a digital hedonism.

Why is it that the ethos of the people who support these two ideologies are the opposite of what youre saying? Fascists value their work, commies say "we only have to work because of capitalism," or want everything for free. Rightoids are much more likely to be pragmatist.

>>25637015
Furthermore, (groan!) Mckenna has this idea that the universe is a novelty conserving (emergent complexity) engine, and that it is not, in fact, purposeless, but is in the process of "becoming." He cites Alfred North Whitehead, Tiellhard se Chardin, and Marshall Mcleuhan. He emphasizes conscious development and therefore values "consciousness expansion," which can be facilitated through the psychedelic experience. I think my goal is conservation, (prairie plant habitat, for me ) because as Nick Land said, "nothing human makes it into the near future." Aka nothing from the past. Unconscious processes will pave over or dissolve things-- they are entropic (at worst) or metabolic, more charitably, in their production. The Leviathan consumes, especially thanks to global capital. Making memes or propaganda or art (same same) is also very important in manifesting a good future, because "effective acceleration is hyperstitionally aware." Art also celebrates what is human.

I know you guys think you're trolling, but to someone who isn't a part of your online circles you sound like bitchy weirdos.
If you understood women at all you'd know their primary social trait is agreeableness, not manipulation. They want to be happy and secure. But it's the brute fact of their womanhood itself which both demands and permits their manipulations to be effective, as such traits in both men and women are more so the result of emotional incontinence than calculated manoeuvres. Socially women are rather idiotic and merely slide through life on account of being on the micro level desirable, and on the macro level useful consumers.

Actually a really interesting phenomenon among leftists. Where people on the right consistently piece apart opposing views, leftists very often default to some form of “help me understand”. While they obviously do usually understand perfectly well, I think the overarching phenomenon speaks both to their lack of capacity to consider any other viewpoint as well as their attempting to safeguard a viewpoint of theirs which they know to be ridiculous by pretending to know no possible alternative view. It does well to capture the essence of modern leftist rhetoric: pedantic from a position not of genuine intellectual authority, but rather from one of intellectually insecure posturing.

They tend to resort to gotchas and zingers. The right has shifted increasingly to this behavior online as well, and the cringe as fuck forced memes they attempted like the star wars thing is the same behavior as the "resistance" comparing Trump to Voldemort. Leftist debate stopped being about actually convincing people and turned into social signaling and intimidation, basically just saying "look at this idiot who doesn't get it, unlike us enlightened rational sane folk" The right has slowly picked up those same tactics, and the overall discourse continues to further decay.

Listen, run the numbers, kid. What’s your burn rate on rent? Are you optimizing for location or just bleeding money on a lease that isn't aligned with your current salary bracket? Tell me your expenses, monthly spend, broken down. I want to see every single non-essential line item. How much leaking into "lifestyle" categories like entertainment, dating, video games, tech services? What’s the monthly spend on takeout and fast food? Any gym or club memberships charging monthly dues? If you’re feeling constrained or can't keep pace with the market, it's because your overhead is bloated. Audit your budget, slash the fat, and pivot to a sustainable spending model. If you can't manage your own cash flow, you're the liability. Live within your means or stay broke. Simple as.

>Corporatism is a political ideology and political system of interest representation and policymaking whereby corporate groups, such as agricultural, labour, military, business, scientific, or guild associations, come together and negotiate contracts or policy (collective bargaining) on the basis of their common interests. The term is derived from the Latin corpus, or "body". Corporatism does not refer to a political system dominated by large business interests, even though the latter are commonly called "corporations" in modern American vernacular and legal parlance. Instead, the correct term for that system would be corporatocracy.

This. David Graeber was right about most corporate jobs existing just to inflate the size and image of companies and the perceived importance of their managers. These people could be doing something that actually contributes to society and isn't soul-sucking, but instead their time and energy is being dumped down the drain for the sake of someone's portfolio and ego.

>It's the manpower equivalent of farmers destroying their own produce just to keep their prices from falling.
Agriculture in the west used to be about using 70-90% of the manpower for harvest and conservation.
Agriculture in Mesoamerica and Asia used to be nothing like that, due far higher crop yields of their staples.
But its still very similar: You need a massive overstaffing so a good crop yield can be milled, conserved, pickled, brined, etc. Without access to nitrogen, the land need for grazing requires you to compete with the various land predators, which again means a very large need for herders.

Middlemanagers keeps their companies overstaffed to ensure they don't have to man up and down with the economic cycles, and instead try to have an idea that they can just fire the dead weight during the end of the cycle.
Its for all intents and purposes a economic continuation of a old meme.

No, rather that all of your political projects reduce to increasing the pleasure and comfort of you and people like you. Even your reduction of other people's pleasure serves pleasure. This is particularly obvious in how you prefer that jobs were more meaningful and less "soul-sucking" though you do not believe in any soul. I get that it is supposed to be vague and you people generally do not think critically about your own ideas, but still, it just reduces to more hedonism. It's not like you are doing anything that is substantially different, like advocating for more pain and suffering.

Unironically, yes. The executives at the top of the company don't give a shit about any of that. It's ideology fed to the cattle to keep them in line. You have to feel like you're being silently policed and constantly asked to accept absurdities so that you feel isolated and alienated. You display your loyalty by acting out the big lie.

It's like how Trump recently "renamed" AI to SI as a test of loyalty. Calling it SI, despite the absurdity of the name, is a humiliation ritual you go through to show your submissiveness to the regime, and displaying that you believe in its epistemic authority.

I'm a software engineer with 2yoe at a startup and don't have much experience in the corporate world, but I somehow very much doubt the picture people are painting here about the uselessness of work in corporations.

Corporations are ran by CEOs whose job is to maximise shareholder profit. Labour costs are one of the greatest costs to a company. If these companies truly were hiring people to "do nothing" and "make middle managers feel important" I am 100% sure they would be outcompeted by serious companies who wouldn't have so much employee bloat.

Happy to be corrected if I'm wrong but it doesn't make sense from a game theory perspective. If these employees were useless they would fire them and deliver more profits, increase the stock price.

>companies who wouldn't have so much employee bloat
Employee bloat is more useful than lean structure to big business because providing a gorillion jobs is one of the two ways a corporation gets political weight (the other being straight out bribery in various forms). And political weight is how a corporation grows and perseveres through non-market means, which are the only means for truly massive transnational corps. Affecting zoning and municipal development plans, receiving tax breaks and stimuli, obtaining merger and acquisition permits, exclusive noncompetitive contracts - those kinds of things, which you never ever obtain by just providing the best product and lowest prices. Even if you do have the best techniques, equipment and employees - those can be very easily bought by anyone with deep enough pockets, but you cannot easily buy institutional influence. At very least, it's a lost and complicated purchase.

This all does not mean that someone in a corporation makes decisions to knowingly and deliberately hire useless employees, but rather that no planning and management are perfect. Redundancies and administrative atavisms naturally accumulate in any sufficiently large organization, but managements is incentivized to overlook those, unless it's a part of truly massive downsizing and reorganization involving multiple underperforming sections. The fact that harming you means inadvertently harming an entire town, or a city, or a region, is always kept in mind as a major factor, both for an entire corporation and for departments within them.

The short if it is that big business explicitly does not work on straightforward market competition principles. At that level it's like Olympic sports - everyone cheats (dopes), and everyone knows everyone dopes, but everyone pretends to not dope, and who doesn't dope gets dropped out of the leaderboards at a supersonic velocity.

>The left-wing spaces you've been in are either retarded or full of liberals. I don't know what else would explain this.
correct. Could you tell me what left-wing spaces you're in where people actually care about de-industrialization and unemployment? Or at least something to read about it. I'd like to see takes about things that matter instead of *goofy ass social issue*. I'm a big dumb if you didn't know.

Their stock prices do very well when they announce layoffs though (without, of course, announcing a concomitant decrease in revenues or profits). The market rewards them for running an efficient operation. Zuckerberg's "year of efficiency", for instance, was great for Meta stock. I do get what you're saying I just wonder to what extent is this true.

Notice how it works as a part of massive top-to-bottom optimization rushes. But the very existence of those rushes inherently means that those organizations continuously build up bloat outside of such efficiency campaigns. Actual lean organization would mean hiring and evaluation practices that straight up prevent bloat. Consider how specifically only extremely niche companies (like luxury manufacturers) do that, never megacorps.

All the while tech billionaires are free from the crash and enjoying a luxury lodge in the mountain. Dont forget that part. Only the downtrodden, hoi polloi should suffer while the architects wait it out in comfort and privelege. Completely safe from the ramifications of their plan.

48 Laws, 33 Strategies of War, and Mastery are kino.
Haven't read Art of Seduction. And 50th Law is more niche and you probably won't enjoy it because of 50 Cent.
I'm looking forward to Sublime this month.

Marx never real dealt with ethics alot. Theres some evidence he personally followed some virtue ethics from his love of aristotle.
