Are you a “harbinger of failure”?

An MIT study finds the same consumers tend to purchase failed products. Dubbed “harbingers of failure,” these buyers may provide new window into consumer behavior and behavioral economics.

@timfoster masterful pun. I read it several times before I even considered you may be referring to punctuation. Time for first coffee.

How tempting is this? No bids yet, $25 minimum. Must pick up near Madison WI.

@flomp I guess there were two issues I mentioned. The other thing is that the post didn’t get replicated to mastodon.social.

I now see it at

https://demo.wanderer.to/profile/@demo

But not at

https://mastodon.social/@demo@demo.wanderer.to

Subsequent to following the demo account I have seen at least one other trail appear on mastodon.social.

@box464 so now I found how to follow the demo account by searching for @demo in my mastodon home. The profile page at https://demo.wanderer.to/profile/@demo does not show the trail I added.

I also noticed that searching for the trail and clicking on the item in the results dropdown adjacent to the search box leads to a 404. Maybe my entry did not get fully added correctly. Maybe it’s still working through some eventual consistency many minutes later. 🤷

@box464 nice!

I just tried adding a new trail to the demo instance. Seemed to go quite well!

I’ve not figured out how to share the trail on the fediverse for likes and reposts.

@dougfir it only became a federal holiday rather recently.

> The day was recognized as a federal holiday in 2021, when the 117th U.S. Congress enacted and President Joe Biden signed the Juneteenth National Independence Day Act into law. Juneteenth became the first new federal holiday since Martin Luther King Jr. Day was adopted in 1983.[11]
