Author here: the title might seem like a clickbait, but we've seen it's accurate. Another option is "harmful". Correct answer is that it depends depending on how the testing tool is used:
1. If used correctly -> "harmful" (months of waiting without touching the site)
2. If not (like in most cases) -> "bullshit" (results are random)

The major difference between traditional A/B testing and Volument is that the comparisons are based on _cohort analysis_. It takes two groups of visitors and places them side-by-side starting from the very first visit: how they gradually build awareness and interest (metrics from the first visit) before taking action (on the first visit or on later visits). Then you take a cutoff day (say Day 7) and compare what has happened (how much retention, conversions, sales, virality) before that day. The whole "traction" so to speak.

I wouldn't be surprised to see a test runner with the same features done in 1000–5000 lines.
Ask HN: Fastify has 13k stars on GitHub, but no traction in HN. Why?
Fastify [1] has been submitted to HN for several times [2], but it has never gotten more than 3 upvotes. However, it is hugely popular in GitHub. Can anyone explain this? I have no clue. Thank you![1]: https://github.com/fastify/fastify[2]: https://hn.algolia.com/?q=fastify

Hey HN. Here's how we replaced most of our SAAS services with a minimalistic alternative. A prime example of NIH syndrome taking over :) Thanks!

Ask HN: What to do after the workday?
I mostly enjoy my day at work. There are people to talk to and somewhat interesting projects to work on. However, when I go back home, all I see is the home computer and the television. Yes.. I could go on with those, but I feel there's more. What is that? Please help!
Do you remember TJ Holowaychuk?
TJ (https://github.com/tj) used to be a significant JavaScript contributor and could easily be labeled as the "rockstar" of the time. In 2014 he switched from Node to Go (https://medium.com/@tjholowaychuk/farewell-node-js-4ba9e7f3e52b) and I haven't heard of him ever since. Is it just me, or is there a correlation?
