Glitch help? Is this help to prevent glitches or using glitches to help?

[Frumple]

Glitch hop is using glitches to make you hop. Sorta'. So to help, I guess.

A video about the Stanford prison “experiment”

Both of the "experiments" in that video (which appear to be Milgram and Standford) have been massively criticized. Metastudies have shown considerable evidence that Milgram "massaged" his data to support his conclusion (most attempts to "replicate" the original have essentially been politicized "see! see!" affairs), while Stanford could very well serve as a "Errors in psychological study" checklist. Not only were the "guards" specifically instructed to dominate the "prisoners", at least two are known to have admitting that they deliberately tried to give the "desired" results. Numerous prison experiments have been conducted in a more ethical manner since (due to it being an extremely valuable topic for study) - none have the same results as Stanford.

The criticisms are the topic of the video. Part of the video was about criticizing the experiments. I agree they are flawed. Thst is also what the video is saying as well.

Sorry. I did't catch that when I skimmed - I've seen those two experiments refrenced in so many "LOOK HOW EVIL PEOPLE ARE" contexts that I have a bit of a knee-jerk reaction. It is pretty similar to my response to Sigmund Fraud.

Yeah, you don't need a prison experiment to conclude people are evil. You just need to work in retail.

Customer service in general. The only people worse than customers are bosses (which is also innately understood by video game creators).

No, C-level managment is the very embodiment of capricious evil.  Middle management is just the manifestation of evil by incompetence.  C-level management is lawful evil. The worst combination.

What is C level management?

Then what are the Board of Directors?

Chaotic evil, you never know what BS they're going to demand next.

Try having a company where you have to attend mandatory parties for your well-being, paid for by the company, but the bossman won't just pay you the money they spent on the party instead D;

My company is a bit weird about that.

I got a raise this year, and a 19% total raise on top of yearly raises when I had my kid. They've bought us pizza three times during this holiday season and are giving us an entire catered lunch from the best BBQ place around (we got to choose anywhere and chose this place) this Monday.

I still make just enough that I qualify for state assistance for food, and my wife works full time too ;_;. I understand that people with my title and in my industry don't make so much, but the concept that they pay me so little that I qualify for state assistance is sort of absurd.
