 There seems to me to be a fundamental flaw in the math behind our current foreign policy.
|
 |
THANK YOU. It gets a $5
|
 |
Hehe.
|
|
and by the way, before someone beats me to it, yes this is an extreme simplification of reality (terrorist density is nonuniform, not all negatively affected people become terrorists, etc)
Still a valid argument though in my opinion |
 |
I wouldn't have a problem with that.

Kojima on Aug 24 '06 the y coordinate of the graph is not labeled, making it meaningless
|
 |
$5
|
|
hardly meaningless, as long as the two variables are plotted on the same linear, you can still tell the ratio from the relative amplitudes, even if the exact amplitudes are not shown. and again, yes you can certainly pick this apart if you want to, when is that not the case for a mathematical model of a real process?
|
 |
hehehe what a mambo jambo all over (kind of funny) but i like it!
|
 |
I ♥ you.
5/5 |
 |
i'm not going to die for some terrorist =\
but you've got a point there ;) |
 |
I'm not sure this belongs a shirt. Too small, lots of reading.
|
 |
I wish the graph didn't have a white background. Great idea, though. 3/5
|
 |
that great idea but they have less detail design
|
|
um the y axis is number of people duh
|
|
haha, i like this.
|
 |
Uh... Marth int my strong subject.
|
|
Way too utilitarianist, philosophically speaking.
|
 |
Love it. The only thing I would suggest is making the last sentence a liiitle bit bigger so people don't think they have to read the entire thing.
Anyway. $5. |
 |
Aaaah, maaaath...
|
 |
for some reasons it's bugging me that the world population line on the graph is negative.
otherwise I absolutely love this. $ 5 |
|
you, mean that it's downsloping?, that's cause it's plotted as a function of bombs
|
 |
"Uh... Marth int my strong subject."
Apparently spelling isn't either, BoomerRang. |
 |
dork shirt
|
 |
this tries too hard to be clever...
|
 |
i like it! $5
|
 |
$5$
|
 |
I love it profusely, and while I'm not good enough to get some of the technicalities, I love the idea - write me back a brief explanation if possible.
|
|
yeah - i really love the idea. i have a feeling i would get lots of love and lots of hate if i wore this though.
|
 |
I like it $5 worth.
|
 |
aren't there people positively affected by the dropping of bombs too? they gotta be somewhere
|
 |
math = not my thing.
|
 |
beautiful. What are you doing between the years 2008 and 2012. Theres a job opening that you might be interested in...
|
|
yes..well..i suppose. seems extremely farfetched though. kinda reminds me of the whole global warming thing. and the graph isn't labeled..it could be magnified. it could be many people, it could be only 2. say if it's magnified from a large graph, it wouldn't be a very dramatic fall from the world's population and the terroists. and there are far more people in the world than there are terroists.
$3 |
|
well, obviously we are operating on the extreme left side of the graph and aren't really killing enough people to dent the world's population too much, it's just a thought experiment really, taking the policy to its conclusion I guess. It makes sense to me though that if you blew up half the world's population (midpoint on the graph) you'd probably have the vast majority of what's left want to terrorize you, I know I would

Politics don't belong on threadless.
It always ends in bloodshed. |
 |
seenew's got it right...
|
 |
Politics make Threadless great. If there weren't shirts that meant anything on here it would just be another souce of lovely little trinkets that people can look at and say "Hey that's funny" and then laugh and forget about reality, like AE or Hollister or all that crap.
|
 |
wow! i like this!
I agree. this is what makes Threadless great! |
 |
Nice... but would I want this on a tee shirt? The design part of it just isn't that great.
|
 |
It concerns me that at some number, n=x, on your graph, all the people are terrorists but you say at the bottom left that this occurs at infinity...I guess it's just the lines being so thick...
|
 |
Tonteau on Aug 28 '06 I've been thinking for a long time that threadless needs far more graph-based designs. This is a bit complicated for my simple brain, but kudos for doing something different. 4.
|
 |
It hurt after a few minutes, and ill have a problem explaining it but i love it
|
 |
good idea but trying a little too hard.
|
|
I hated calculus in college but I like the problem this shirt displays. I would just change the background color on the graph.
|
 |
really good! agree with you :)
|
|
I would love it, but I don't want someone squinting at my tee shirt for five minutes. make the font bigger.
|
 |
i think its waaaay too much for a tshirt.
|
 |
Very nice!
(P.S. I went to Duke and worked in neuro for a while- with Laura Hale and Rosemary B???. I hope they still have grad student happy hour every Friday!) |
 |
this design is not suitable on a t-shirt.
