I already know that I'm colourblind, but if anyone else is curious what those results would look like; Here ya go: http://imgur.com/a/OgnuM
Something of interest that I noticed is the fairly constant gap between areas of low colour acuity

I tried it without much effort on my so-so Dell desktop display and got 59. Tried again on my RMBP with even less effort and got 14. However, I did have trouble in the same places both times so it's certainly demonstrating something.

Green/Red street lights are easy to tell apart, but the amber light in the middle can look very close to either depending on the light level outside. A red flower amongst a green leaves is something I would overlook, unless it was pointed out to me. Then I would have to search for the flower. While looking directly at it, its pretty apparent its different from the green leaves but to spot it without previous knowledge that its there is a difficult task (This situation came up yesterday while someone was pointing out a wild rose among a hedge.).
Overall it I would say it doesn't have an effect on my daily life. I can still wire up a RJ-45 connector under good light conditions (I use my phones flashlight to do it). Oddly enough, being colourblind has made me better than my coworkers at wiring up Cat6, as I double and triple check each of my connectors quite thoroughly to make sure there is no mistakes (As me making a mistake will directly be blamed on colourblindness and my abilities will be called into question, if a coworker makes a mistake it is just that - a mistake).
