Dear enemies, detractors, libellers, university rats, genocide propagandists, ethnic cleansing & baby murder promoters, & label conscious Davos midwits, it also happens that #Antifragility is the most influential 21st C. concept.

Dear enemies,The Black Swan is now the most influential (that is, discussed/mentioned) 21st C book. While almost all books have a half-life between 2 and 6 months, it does not appear to have a half-life. #Lindy [Same with other 4 books in the Incerto. Graph is US only]

@MathMath901 We know from finance (binomial option pricing) that there are n * (n+1) total arrows in a RECOMBINING tree. Allora, here the n=100 so 10100.

@NigelLaw526509 No I think you are an idiot because we are not complying with any governmental mandate, just giving scholarships to women. We can give some to people from Western Morocco or people who weight between 220 and 225 lbs. You're an idiot.

@nntaleb Sounds like you agree with my statement. You just think it’s rude to point it out.

I felt sooooooo much better with Albanese's announcement: we don't live in a world going backwards. We did not undo centuries of improvement in legal integrity by reinstating witness intimidation, politicized courts, etc. Trump & Israel are just downticks in an uptrending market.

Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt@FranceskAlbs

BREAKING! US court ha suspended the US sanctions against me! As the judge says: "Protecting the Freedom of speech is always just the public interest". Thanks to my daughter and my husband for stepping up to defend me, and everyone who has helped so far. Together we are One.

@nntaleb @otrasenda_AC Yes, that's the critical issue, Nassim. Here's a Table I made of the studies with analysis to support independent effects from weight loss. More to be learned about this.....

78 years ago, 800,000 Palestinians were expelled from their homes. Britain made it possible. Today, Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. Britain made it possible. 78 years of the Nakba - and 78 years of British complicity in crimes against the Palestinian people.

Nasty tactic from evil nasty people- mimic everything the "truth" accuser says, so to make a conflict look symmetrical to ignorant bystanders. Why Israel got away w it for so long.

Thomas Massie: “The force of the whole swamp has come down on me.” “It’s three billionaires.” “They’re hedge fund managers and gambling magnates.” “They’re upset that I’ve never voted for foreign aid.” “Particularly foreign aid to Israel.” “And they’re upset that I vote against the wars.” “These billionaires are funding a super PAC called MAGA Kentucky.” “They are not MAGA, and they have never been to Kentucky.” “There will be $6 million spent this week on TV and radio and mail.” “Fox News, they’ve got a monopoly on the screens in a lot of Republican houses, particularly people between the ages of 65 and 75.” “For the last 18 months, they’ve not invited me on a single show.” “They have blacklisted me.” “I can’t get on TVs in the living rooms of the people that vote in this election unless I can buy TV ads.” @RepThomasMassie @MassieforKY

Ha! A lawsuit means discovery, visits to the prisons, documents, etc. As with tobacco, it will lead to more revelations. I think TMFSEW (The Most Fragile State Entity in the World) is starting to see its reality and is panicking.
Benjamin Netanyahu - בנימין נתניהו@netanyahu

Today I instructed my legal advisers to consider the harshest legal action against The New York Times and Nicholas Kristof. They defamed the soldiers of Israel and perpetuated a blood libel about rape, trying to create a false symmetry between the genocidal terrorists of Hamas and Israel’s valiant soldiers. Under my leadership, Israel will not be silent. We will fight these lies in the court of public opinion and in the court of law. Truth will prevail.

@rich_goldberg Debunked the same day. Your lies aren’t sticking the way they used to. You’ve bought up the airways and print media, manipulated the algorithms, and fired or killed decent journalists. But you still can’t make people believe your bullshit, not anymore. Your masks are off, demons.

@AJakov12131 @3gpmh @nntaleb I can’t remember the source this day, it might be from an interview or one of Mr Taleb’s books, but it has been circulated for many years, and I have never seen it debunked by Mr Taleb.
