Patagonia stopped doing custom logos on those pieces a few years back:

I'm not sure if that put a dent in the finance bros' style. Finance bros can of course still buy a bunch of the vests and have a third party do the custom logo for them.

> Intelligent listeners then correctly infer what the doctor recommends and act accordingly.

I feel like if the author were really committed to this position, they would have stated it in the other direction. I.e., 6% to 20% of these intelligent listeners incorrectly infer that the doctor is conveying information through the framing of the question.

Something like the academic version of dogfooding. :)

More to the point, what does research into notions of fairness among primates tell us about the risks of a vast number of participants deciding to take this deal?

You have to tell us the answer so we can resolve your nickname "simianwords" with regard to Poe's Law.

haha perhaps we are better than primates.

> It fueled extremism and populism, both on the left and on the right.

I think you're confusing the Occupy Movement with the housing crisis itself.

Any anti-establishment/libertarian right-wingers would have already gotten energized years before by the Tea Party movement. Even Ron Paul's million dollar "money bomb" in donations happened a few months before Occupy. And what's the path from Occupy to right-wing extremism? Even on Fox News Occupy was a short-term blip.

The "one percent" slogan made its way directly into Bernie's campaign, so that tracks with what I assume you're calling left-wing populism. But what do you mean by "extremism" here? If it's violent extremism I don't see the connection. And if it's left-wing anarchist movements, have those grown in any significant way since the 2010s?

I understand my comment might give one the impression that I am confusing the chicken (the financial crisis) and the egg (the Occupy movement).

Since Occupy could not have existed without the Crisis, certainly some blame goes to the Crisis.

That said, Occupy shaped perception of the Crisis. Occupy trained the public to view the Crisis in terms of bad people, instead of systemic problems like incentives.

The Occupy movement, with its permanent smoke-pit adolescents like Tim Pool, Matt Taibbi, Max Keiser, and so on, has influenced public discourse ever since.

I cannot prove that Occupy, rather than the Financial Crisis alone, made possible our current dysfunctional politics (with its focus on scapegoating, conspiracy theories, magical thinking), but I notice echos of its 'memes' (in the original sense of the word), and its attitudes - not to mention I notice some of the actual participants.

I wish I could edit this, because now that I reread it, 'chicken and egg' doesn't make sense. It's more a question of root cause. So a better metaphor might be whether to assign blame to a misbehaving child or to the abusive father who raised him.

> As an outsider to all this, it's funny how these movements always crumble as soon as there is any mainstream recognition.

It crumbled when the physical encampments were forcibly removed by the police. I mean, even at the tiny encampment of UC Davis-- essentially a few camping tents-- the students got pepper sprayed and hauled off. Remember that meme? Many of those same students also faced serious jail time for a protest outside Washington Mutual Bank. It's probably difficult to sustain a movement under those conditions, no?

In any case, the message that resonated across the U.S. encampments is essentially what turned into Bernie Sanders two runs for president. That, the group behind AOC's House run, and many other important grassroots movements are the legacy of OWS. Whatever the deal is with jart's website is orthogonal to all this-- I've literally never heard about her association with OWS outside of HN.

Edit: clarification

> This may prove out if after 5yr+ of it being banned or limited, nothing changes in the youth (et al.) -- that would be my prediction.

You're speculation here could be a counterargument to Jonathan Haidt's meta studies on the effects of social media on teenage girls, if you can supplement your speculation with a better explanation for the increase in major depressive episodes in the time range he cites than the correlation with Instagram use.

For this article, however, all the participants are aged 18-30. Using it as a jumping off point to paint all concern over social media as a "moral panic" is reductive and unhelpful.

Granting to you for the moment that the issue is with technology -- if instagram is removed, what is it replaced with? Presumably youtube? Or more passive kinds of tech?

Is the issue social media, or mass media? Who knows.

If we don't grant that, then the rise of instagram correlates heavily with everything i've mentioned. I'd suppose if you look at the physical places of social interaction for teenagers, where they'd have to move around and meet people -- these have all disappeared, and extremely, with the rise of instagram.

Removing the gramme hardly brings them back. Maybe, maybe not.

A sibling comment with a bunch of ostensible counterarguments to Haidt appeared earlier, with at least seven annotated footnotes. I was about to dig into it, but they deleted it!

In an attempt to summon the comment back, I'll just close by saying the negative effects are significant and there is no good reason to doubt Haidt's research. :)

> lack of concurrency has nothing to do with the language

That's an extraordinary claim for any C codebase.

Unless it ships with code enabling concurrency that is commented out, we should assume that "concurrency in C ain't easy" was a factor in that design choice.

So when an immigration officer makes an error parsing the tourist's words, you think the security protocol ought to be to let the tourist pass through the gate?

> First, there is modeling ambiguity, too many ways to represent the same data structure.

Boy, are you telling me!

Boy are you a person, one of whose attributes is telling me!

Boy are you a person whose telling-me attribute is set to true!

Boy-who-is-telling-me, this space is left intentionally blank!

Out of all the key value pairs, you are the boy key and your adjacent sibling string type value is "Telling Me!"

Edit: fixed a CVE

This is both painfully hilarious and hilariously painful. It might even be hilarious, but my JVM ran out of memory while trying to build the DOM model.

Music has a lot of these. A fugue subject may traverse the boundaries between two metric groupings, and between two clear sections of the form.

There are also non-contiguous examples. Smack in the middle of Wagner's Tristan und Isolde you hear the final theme that signals they are about to win the main boss battle. Then one of the NPCs screams right before the final chord. The audience instead hears the danger signal and realizes it was a fake boss and there's another two hours of game play. Only when Isolde beats the final boss at the end do we get the final chord.

It also affects the digital markup of music. Music can't be expressed with a tree structure as there is lots of overlap.

A simple example is a slur. It crosses bar lines. <bar1> ... <slur> ... </bar1> ... </slur> <bar2> uhoh!

In fact there are many mutually incompatible hierarchies in music engraving.

It's funny though MusicXML is a popular interchange format, but internally looks nothing like what one would naively expect.

Ditto control flow. It’s tempting to think of repeat bars, DC al fines, codas etc hierarchical structures when in fact they are imperative GOTOs and always have been.
