b_b Ah, I agreed with your comment regarding the counter intuitively stated "positive feedback has no [discernible] influence on the author" but this is what the authors seem to have meant by that. It could've been clearer in the Medium article. Which is a bit odd that they would've left it out, to me at least, because insight into the effects of positive reinforcement seems so naturally interesting.
