Enjoyed the story but I am dreading "the group test" becoming the new why-are-manhole-covers-round cargo cult nonsense :-)

- themodelplumber 4y agoJust wait until people figure out that group composition can also affect whether people appear to be assholes, apathetic, etc. The wrong grouping will give even the most otherwise-perfect wallpower the permission and impetus to speak up and completely torch their opportunity. On top of that, one evaluator in the right/wrong evaluation group can change the very definition of asshole on the spot and get group buy-in, given specific group composition. To me a big part of the issue is that it's one test for one property, in one group configuration, by one evaluation group configuration...one might say it's _singularly_ disappointing to hear about that aspect. One would hope a technology company could see the value in more scientific testing principles at least at a basic level? Hope my straw goggles are on, showing me straw-structures in straw-corporations.
