on hipness
Aug. 8th, 2010 03:05 amThe Wikipedia article on Bohemianism describes exactly what I want in a neighborhood. (I like the links section). Sadly, they all tend to get gentrified and lose their creative edge.
The article on the book "The Rebel Sell", by Joseph Heath, reminds me of the stuff I've read on OvercomingBias and LessWrong, in the sense of being cynical (in this case, debunking hippie political BS) and the game-theoretic story of "why we need rules". It also reminded me of George Carlin's rant about baby boomers.
