I didn't know what Barbra Streisand's Malibu residence looked like, but now I do.


Ah yes, the Streisand Streisand effect, the effect of being the Streisand referred to in the Streisand effect and having your private details brought up in metaconversations


it's very satisfying to me that the Streisand Streisand effect is an example of the Streisand effect. It's like F(F(x)) = F(x).


“The Streisand effect is idempotent”

Only on HN


Works at least for F(x) = c and F(x) = x (∀c ∈ ℝ)

(this is not legal advice)


If 'x' is a vector, then it works for a lot of other functions as well (all the projections into a lower-dimensional vector space).


Streisand should counter with a super-injunction, to complete the circle.


Re: Streisand effect effect vs Streisand Streisand effect. They both work, I thought of it as Streisand (possessive of specific person) "Streisand effect" (concept). Also the doubling on the left seems beneficially sillier
