No lies, Jonathan Toboul from the Collège de France in Paris has created a math equation that he rates is the answer to why all hipsters look the same.
He has written a paper, obviously, that is titled The Hipster Effect: When anti-conformists all look the same and concludes with something like this:
Okay, okay, we know that that makes no sense to the majority of people in the world, so here it is broken down into simple language:
When hipsters are too slow in detecting the trends, they will keep making the same choices and therefore remain correlated as time goes by.
Basically, because trends move so quickly, those who attempt to adopt trends before they take off (hipsters) are actually too slow on picking up a new trend once their original trend has become too popular. In other words:
An actual hipster is about as real as a unicorn.
Jonathan hopes his research will do more than just help people choose the best suit this winter:
This study may have important implications in understanding dynamics of inhibitory networks of the brain or investment strategies in finance, or the understanding of emergent dynamics in social science, domains in which delays of communication and the geometry of the systems are prominent.
Yeah, okay.
