Vitalik Buterin

I'm noticing lots of people with both the opinion "I don't think I could work under a boss" and "hierarchies are efficient". But there's a tension between these two. Efficiency properly understood isn't output per man-hour, it's output per unit unpleasantness. That follows from standard econ definitions of efficiency.

what do you mean by “output per unit unpleasantness”? Well designed organizational structures increase efficiency but they don’t necessarily need to be heirarchies
