Laziness is the first productive force: do not be fooled by “diligence”

Real technical breakthroughs are often made by “lazy” people. Lazy here does not mean refusing to work; it means hating repetitive and meaningless work.

The project mentioned in the interview that helped an engineer rise quickly inside the company started from a laughably simple reason. He did not want to manually fix the database every time it broke, and he did not want to spend half a day configuring physical machines every time capacity had to expand. To save effort, he built an automated container orchestration system. In the end, this tool originally created only to make his own life easier took over scheduling for hundreds of thousands of servers across the company.

What does this tell us about enterprise intelligence today? Too many bosses like to see employees working overtime and call that dedication. But in the AI era, this logic of piling on labor is completely wrong. We should encourage impatience. If employees are annoyed by tedious processes and want to replace manual work with tools and algorithms, that is the spark of innovation. A good technical system, whether early automated operations or today’s AI agents, is essentially about freeing people from undifferentiated heavy labor.
