[Sigia-l] research: when is it enough?

[Fiorito, David]

Your parsing is incorrect.  

The management where I work _does_ trust my opinion specifically because I
was able to demonstrate the validity of my opinions and did so consistently
over time.  Now when I present a hunch people listen.

That is how it works in the real world.

Cheers,

Dave

OK, let's parse this:

You have management that does NOT trust your professional opinion (and they
still employ you?)

That same management thinks "bright red blinking text on a bright blue
background" is good design (and let's assume it is bad)

Then you show them "some kind of reference and citation that says - Yes!"
and, bingo, they are resurrected? You think this is a tenable situation for
the long run?

I'd say you got bigger problems than your sampling size.

Best,
