The Unbearable Lightness of Nassim Taleb —A Response To Taleb’s 10 Item List | Simoleon Sense

The Unbearable Lightness of Nassim Taleb —A Response To Taleb’s 10 Item List | Simoleon Sense: "

Davi writes an interesting article titled “The Unbearable Lightness Of Nassim Taleb”. So, in the spirit of intellectual debate I present you with this counterpoint to Taleb’s 10 principles for a black swan proof world."

And from the Brave New World by Charles Davi (that Simoleon Sense points to) comes one of the funniest lines I have heard in a while.:
