What are you talking about?

The people who do the list of tasks you described are literally the HR team.

Regardless of what you call that group of people; that’s your HR team.

This is the answer. This comment could have replaced that entire medium article and saved us all a lot of time.

Ok, you've convinced me that this isn't a troll account like it originally appeared. Can you elaborate on your proposal to have pharma companies run drug rehab programs and "partner with publishers" rather than have libraries run as they do?

If these numbers hold up, this could be a game changer.

I had the exact same problem! One child and then twins, we measured our old SUV wrong and realized the night before the twins were born that we couldn't fit all our kids in one car. I was shopping for a minivan from the hospital :)

That’s fair. But you are just proving my point. This research was dismissed out of hand, it wasn’t actually engaged with to see if it’s a correct assessment or not. That seems to happen whenever any sort of soft science research is posted here. There is a contingent of folks that seems to believe soft science is an oxymoron and therefore shouldn’t even be tried.

I think skepticism is warranted, but dismissiveness is not. Honestly it's a little offensive.

Also, in this case their findings aren't even counter intuitive or that surprising. They are just measuring something that most of use believe already (judging by the rest of these comment threads).

I find this response overly dismissive. Did you read the paper or just the abstract?

Dismissing the work of marketing professors out of hand isn't the right approach. What if this is one of the half of psychology papers that do replicate?

Ding Ding. This is exactly it. Mostly people don't understand the economic model of fast growth SaaS companies, even when working for one. Thanks for explaining it so clearly.

Does anything know if other countries have the same levels of conspiracy theory belief as the United States? I've tried to research this and largely come up empty.
