Quotation of the Day for November 13, 2014"In such different domains as statistical physics and spin glasses, neurosciences, social science, economics and finance, large ensemble of interacting individuals taking their decisions either in accordance (mainstream) or against (hipsters) the majority are ubiquitous. Yet, trying hard to be different often ends up in hipsters consistently taking the same decisions, in other words all looking alike." - Jonathan Touboul, in the paper 'The hipster effect: When anticonformists all look the same.'
