Funny. I do want to point out that this article is just terribly written. It seems to be based more on this: http://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2015/03

That article tends to go a little more in depth. I do think it's interesting that they can make the correlation between retention rates at a call center (with average 45% annual turnover) and browser choice. Those going with chrome/firefox stayed 15% longer in their positions.
How that gets turned into some cliched 'nonconformist' categorization, I don't know. It would seem pretty conformist to stay in your position longer rather than quit, but what do I know.
"As correlations like “Chrome users are better employees” bob up from a sea of data, it’s important that they don’t start to generate the same rigid biases that Big Data is partially dampening—rejecting an applicant with the “wrong” browser would be silly."
