I certainly don't think this is bad advice, but without some discussion of how to assess the strength of a signal or the appropriate reaction size, I'm not sure it's useful advice. Knowing not to overreact to weak signals seems like the easy part. The hard part is knowing the difference.

Your downvotes are unjustified. This is good feedback. I'll update the article to talk about sample size etc.

Thanks. I spend a lot of time working around pretty thin data, so I'm always interested to hear how people think about extracting insights when you don't have the luxury of doing proper, robust experimental design or sophisticated statistical analysis. I'll keep an eye on the page for updates.
