Use color codes to confirm identities of people, groups, or collections. This helps build confidence that the user knows who they are talking to, or that they are looking at the correct tasks. Care is needed not to associate a bias of an algorithm. 15:48:22 When specific and intentional, color codes can be used effectively to confirm identities of people, groups, or collections. This helps build confidence that the user knows who they are talking to, or that they are looking at the correct tasks.
