    • Interesting article! I bet a larger-scale test will indicate the Bay Area dress code is nearly random. In particular, hoodies (thanks to Zuckerberg) aren’t as common as people think; the weather is simply too warm for that most of the year (except a small part of SF which is perpetually foggy). 🙂
