My sole complaint about this post is that I feel the idea, as applied to psychology, is a couple orders of magnitude more amazing than the post suggests. My initial reaction on seeing this post was "Huh, neat. Upvote." Now that it's had more time to stew in my brain, I'm starting to imagine lots and lots of potential implications this theory has for improving the productivity and happiness of my daily life.

Go on please, the website only says a couple of potential applications.
