God I feel old. Engineering is about the weight of responsibility you have from the thing that you build. Being knowledgeable and accomplished is a way to reduce that weight because you are confident that you did the correct thing.

Being the most effective slave means you’re still a slave. If you’re trading your time for a corporation you’d be smart to give the least amount of effort for the most amount of return. Sounds bad, but corporations are not your friend and will discard you as such.

I think the author basically decides that "productivity" is not defined but "effective" is. The problem with productivity is that most of us aren't directly producing a thing that is of independent and immediately clear worth. I would claim the same is true if "effectiveness" -- what effect is being achieved, and is it actually worthwhile on its own or is its worth contingent on a bunch of other work and conditions some of which you don't control or observe?
