Self reported, sure. But I find that when necessity arrives, and there’s no other way people do apply to it. I’ve been there myself.

This! Or one of the forks. You shouldn’t trust your passwords to anything not stored locally on your hard drives anyway. It’s asking for trouble, I see this as a blessing in disguise.

It’s not humane, but then ironically they insist on forcing fake relationships onto the worker: “we’re a family™️”, great/informal work environment your manager pretending to be your buddy, forced corporate dinners, and so on.

Hell, I should know, me not aligning with their nepotistic cult-like (and I’m not exaggerating here) culture was a major contribution for me losing my last job.

Now this is an unexpected take, and granted you might be right, but I always understood the prisioner’s dilema as a restricted view of relations between individuals at very similar status, or in this case of the same class in similar circumstances.

I did see an old Richard Dawkins documentary’s about this many years ago, before we became a massive prick, and it did inform my view of this particular thought experiment. But I always took the tit-for-tat response to it, as an indicator of reasonable response to people on the level with you. Obviously, your manager/boss/etc will rarely give you a favourable answer, to begin with, or when it does it’s with the prospect of getting something extra out of you, it’s more of a prisioner-warden relationship.

You’re right, and I admit I was referring to the “free market” and not really to the invisible hand. Which still translates to, the job market clearly not being remotely free but heavily biased.

Here’s the thing, from their POV you’re using a logical fallacy know as guilt by association, so even if the CIA approves them, or even more than that, it doesn’t prove anything. And indeed, by itself it proves nothing, but we know the context where the CIA ends up being so sympathetic, the thing here is, anarchists above all else care about being more revolutionary (read edgy, in the good sense of the word) than anyone else, so this won’t matter to them.

Use replay gain (track based), it helps a lot, you just need an audio player that supports it. Foobar2000 does, and also allows you to apply replay gain to any download music you have.
