Yes, the link in the article to the research paper isn't working.

The title of the article could be misleading, really comes back to interpretation plus the idea of correlation vs. causation.

For example these paragraphs in the article tell me I would want a "conservative" working for me given they are more likely to methodically do something correct the first time. If you apply these behaviours to "thoughts" does that also mean a "conservative" would also not so easily believe a statement, regardless if it is media, government or otherwise - and would mull it over and apply some logic to it instead of just going along with a crowd?

Easy to draw pros/cons from these things and project your own views.

"" In some cognitive tasks, participants were asked to respond as quickly and as accurately as possible. People who leant towards the politically conservative tended to go for the slow and steady strategy, while political liberals took a slightly more fast and furious, less precise approach.

“It’s fascinating, because conservatism is almost a synonym for caution,” she said. “We’re seeing that – at the very basic neuropsychological level – individuals who are politically conservative … simply treat every stimuli that they encounter with caution.” ""

The concept of large and small pieces of work, and having developers rotate between them in naturally forming teams I found to be excellent for morale and hence productivity.

Also once a cycle is locked in, it's rarely adjusted. And no timesheets.

Really basic things that IMO Basecamp is doing a great job advocating for in an industry that still needs it.

This is so spot on. Use the parts that work, modify to suit the teams needs. I've seen this done to a massively productive and happy team.

I feel there are too many controls without a sense of hierarchy. I get lost knowing which sub list of which task under which project I'm looking at. Plus with the amount of controls there are I'd expect it to be more powerful.

Likewise - I really want to like it.

Matthew from Strone here. Yes - while your SIM is in the Roam all incoming & outgoing calls and SMS flow through the Strone app. Basically the Strone acts as your messaging and calling apps on your phone for that SIM in the Roam.

If I had the coding ability I'd play around with these:

- home automation, get home in the dark & lights go on or other possible location based activities.

- conference badge/phone app, allows user to interact with displays or other conference attendees + more

- other ideas.

IMO advertising via bluetooth would make people turn off bluetooth, and leave it off.

I couldn't word it better, and when Material design was first announced I was excited. The style will get boring quick if a large number of web apps use it. Then people will start straying from the guidelines to try differentiate.

Yes, most of the animations feel unnecessary.

I can't find any complex UI examples. Really want to see what it looks like when there are more than a few elements.
