The data and charts in the article look pretty nice!

One of the things I learned from my years in research/academia is that Design Of Experiments in itself is a pretty complicated task. Most experiments/studies are invalidated due to a huge amount of confounding factors and correlations that are not factored in for the experiments.

A cursory visit to r/science comments would show a lot of people who do science for a living providing valid criticism to published peer reviewed scientific studies due to wrong Design of Experiments procedures.

Having lived all this first hand makes me EXTREMELY resistant to take seriously the data, analysis and conclusions of the linked article.

Other than that, the effort is appreciated and I like the ideas behind interviewing.io.
