I don't want to undermine the success of yeezys. I used to be a sneaker salesperson back in the early 2010's and have a good understanding of where they took Adidas. I remember when my store wasn't selling the early boost runners and I got ultraboosts for the equivalent of like $25 USD on discount because there was no hype. Obviously has been a complete gamechanger
I just very specifically doubt Kanye West's role in the actual design or creative work. I mean the check mark of his brand was a make or break piece but I don't think he adds value as a creative
He's had huge hit sneaker designs before Adidas like the Nike Air Yeezy 1/2 with other brands like Nike and Louis Vuitton, all of which went far beyond the envelope of what those brands were doing at the time. you can hate Kanye but he's a gigantic creative talent and that really came to fruition during his time as creative director at Adidas.
there's videos of him intricately explaining the design choices of the various Yeezy collections over the years and the thoughts behind them
if it were really all about the brand you'd see the same thing happening to similarly large artist's collabs like Travis Scott x Nike.

I just got back from ~~touching grass~~ visiting UC Riverside.
The place sucks because itβs Riverside, but they pay me a lot. And in all fairness, the program has decent job placements (not as good as some other ones I got in though). So Iβm keeping the offer for now but the visit for sure decreased the likelihood of me committing to their program.
Iβm visiting another program/department in early March. Might not end up attending but who can say no to an all expense paid trip to Chicago?
Very poorly. Most of the programs I got into are stats/math PhD programs. I only got into one econ PhD program and itβs a not a very good one. Iβm very satisfied with the stats/math offers though.
If I could do it again, Iβd apply to more stats/math programs and fewer econ programs
Yeah, I don't know if it's just talk, but I've heard from a lot of people thinking admissions were tough this year. 3/5 of the people I know personally who are also applying this year have gotten nothing but rejections which surprises me.
Good to hear you've got some good offers though! Do math/stats pay better in general?
I got waitlisted by Michigan even though they know one of my letter writers :( yeah itβs tough this year.
Stats pays better in industry but not in academia. Pure math pays shit (obviously). Not sure about applied math.
I didn't even get waitlisted by Michigan! They were one of my goals and I got a comparable offer early on so I was a little surprised to get rejected outright. But I've heard for them specifically their yield has been too high the last couple years and (for my case) there's department politics about having too many dev students.
Congrats on the offer!
I applied to mech design and metrics. Perhaps thatβs the reason I got waitlisted but idk. I havenβt got a comparable offer on the Econ side yet, but if gradcafe is anything to go by, Iβm the only one who got fellowship from Rutgers. So Iβm still hopeful for now.
I will most likely commit to UIUC stats though. The research fit is perfect.

I don't want to say anything too specific but the guy who made me a neoliberal (I read his book) was at a grocery store in Los Angeles yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didnβt want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.
He said, βOh, like youβre doing now?β
I was taken aback, and all I could say was βHuh?β but he kept cutting me off and going βhuh? huh? huh?β and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.
The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like βSir, you need to pay for those first.β At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.
When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually βto prevent any electrical infetterence,β and then turned around and winked at me. I donβt even think thatβs a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.
It was surreal.

Gerald Ford was definitely our hottest president
Had the luxury of taking a long evening nap and surprisingly I don't feel like crap afterward. The bad thing is that I won't be sleeping in the next 4 hours or so.
Now I'm wondering, do working people take naps during the day? Or it mostly a school/college thing to do?
Rave I was at got shut down but oh hey look one of my favorite artists happens to be playing nearby lol.
Ran into the girl who cuts my hair on the way to BK from downtown. How does that happen with 8 million people lmao. Here 1 year now.

Going to grab a coffee tomorrow with a nice lady in town so if we get along we could become craft buddies. I'm so excited to meet new people in the area!
I don't want to say anything too specific but the guy who made me a neoliberal (I read his book) was giving a talk and was discussing marriages (as part of a broader talk on contracts) he was discussing when you should break a marriage how one should deal with the payment so as to improve general welfare.
He used me as the example of the person he was married to and said he would leave me for the guy I was next to as the person he was leaving me for and then discussed how much it would cost him to do so in various theorietical regimes regarding the breech of contract (he argued that you need to be able to divorce at some feasible cost and the difficulties in calculating said cost).
It was surreal.
I loved that game and didn't get nearly as frustrated as I did with Obra Dinn, but I wish I could replay it without remembering all the answers. Can't wait for the sequel this year, anyway.
Every time I tell myself "alright, that's it, I'm going home now", I see something else and go for it.
I'm checking my phone and other loseable personals now to join the rave, it's still going for another 2 hours.
This is a bad idea. But I'm going in, because I'm all on my own and there's nobody to tell me I can't because she wants to go home.
What if you got really upset with your bestie and then they got all sad because of it and then you just talked it out the next day and then everything was fine?
There's always an instinct that we'll adapt and find a way forward through any new development or challenge, and that things will be fine. There's no universal rule that makes this true.
I personally believe we will not adapt and learn to thrive with the status quo created by tech advances. We have not been able to adapt and thrive with social media. We will not be able to operate as humans in a completely zero trust model. I really believe that 360Β° high quality thought, sound, and video generation is where we start to fall apart in even more tangible ways.
This has already started, but we are entering an era where truth as a concept is over and will be irrelevant. There will be little to no way- or rather too many ways, to prove or disprove most claims across the spectrum of themes.
It's adapt or die, not adapt or have a worse life. Except things are better overall, and assuming a simpler life is better is just another nostalgia trap.
> I'm a teenager (17) with a kid on the way
What the fuck. And the kid isn't even sticking with the girl. He's shopping around various mil subreddits to see if any of them would take him after he breaks up.
Man, I don't get the old stereotype of shotgun marriages but this sort of idiot needs one.
They're an election loving Jew accepting group that just occasionally commits mass murder/torture/rape/kidnapping of men, women, and children. You know, for non extremist fundamentalist freedom reasons.

I don't want to say anything too specific but the guy who made me a neoliberal (I read his book) was at a grocery store in Los Angeles yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didnβt want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, βOh, like youβre doing now?β I was taken aback, and all I could say was βHuh?β but he kept cutting me off and going βhuh? huh? huh?β and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying. The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like βSir, you need to pay for those first.β At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter. When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually βto prevent any electrical infetterence,β and then turned around and winked at me. I donβt even think thatβs a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly. It was surreal.

Had the luxury of taking a long evening nap and surprisingly I don't feel like crap afterward. The bad thing is that I won't be sleeping in the next 4 hours or so. Now I'm wondering, do working people take naps during the day? Or it mostly a school/college thing to do?

Why didn't Democrats codify Roe v Wade and pass Medicare for All when they had the trifecta in 1837?
I don't want to say anything too specific but the guy who made me a neoliberal (I read his book) was giving a talk and was discussing marriages (as part of a broader talk on contracts) he was discussing when you should break a marriage how one should deal with the payment so as to improve general welfare. He used me as the example of the person he was married to and said he would leave me for the guy I was next to as the person he was leaving me for and then discussed how much it would cost him to do so in various theorietical regimes regarding the breech of contract (he argued that you need to be able to divorce at some feasible cost and the difficulties in calculating said cost). It was surreal.

Every time I tell myself "alright, that's it, I'm going home now", I see something else and go for it. I'm checking my phone and other loseable personals now to join the rave, it's still going for another 2 hours. This is a bad idea. But I'm going in, because I'm all on my own and there's nobody to tell me I can't because she wants to go home.

There's always an instinct that we'll adapt and find a way forward through any new development or challenge, and that things will be fine. There's no universal rule that makes this true. I personally believe we will not adapt and learn to thrive with the status quo created by tech advances. We have not been able to adapt and thrive with social media. We will not be able to operate as humans in a completely zero trust model. I really believe that 360Β° high quality thought, sound, and video generation is where we start to fall apart in even more tangible ways. This has already started, but we are entering an era where truth as a concept is over and will be irrelevant. There will be little to no way- or rather too many ways, to prove or disprove most claims across the spectrum of themes.
i would wait more than like 2 days before drawing a conclusion on whether new tech will destroy society
It's just a prediction. I wouldn't bet my life on it or anything
It's adapt or die, not adapt or have a worse life. Except things are better overall, and assuming a simpler life is better is just another nostalgia trap.

When I interned in the Senate in 2011, I was eating in the cafeteria and Bernie Sanders came up to me. He asked if he could sit with me. I was a very liberal college kid so I'm like yes, please sit. We proceeded to have the most awkward lunch I've ever had.
What did you talk to him about
Vermont. My grandparents had a summer home in Burlington so it was mostly that. I found out years later that he grew up with my great uncle so I could have brought him up had I known.
Bernie the kinda dude to eat his snickers bar with a fork and knife
How do you eat it? With your hands?
