The Stanford Prison Experiment Video

I heard a lot before about the Stanford Prison Experiment (read about it in Wikipedia). In short, it was an experiment conducted in 1971 where a group of students “played” the roles of both guards and prisoners in a prison. The experiment was supposed to last 2 weeks, but instead was stopped after 6 days because of concern for the prisoners’ and guards’ health.

Someone posted a 50 minute TV program about the experiment, including amazing videos from the experiment, showing the behavior of both prisoners and guards. (via Digg)

World’s stupidest hacker appears on IRC

It’s been a while since I saw funny IRC logs. I remember there used to be “this week’s lamest IRC user” everywhere on the Internet when IRC was popular. Aparently IRC is not dead yet, so here’s a funny guy who thinks he got banned from a channel and decides to come back on the channel and avenge the ban by attacking other users’ computers. Check it out. (via Digg)
