@HawkTalkPod And that's an unfollow

Ridiculous from Sicily. Don't care how much we're winning by, that's just not on. And the nerve to complain to the umpire afterwards! Big fan of the guy but seriously... be a captain, don't be a dickhead. #AFLTigersHawks

@velaschopen @nntaleb I've been trying to reconcile McGilchrist with Alfred North Whitehead. I understand neither deeply enough tbh. I don't know Scheler. I do fan boy follow Taleb.

@nntaleb No. In Max Scheler's terms, true moral integrity is faithfulness to objective values, not self-regard. Values have true ontological reality you may benefit from reading Iain Mcgilcrist

MOTHER OF ALL ETHICAL RULES Moral rectitude is when what you think of yourself matters far more than what others think of you, regardless of the domain, regardless of the circumstances, regardless of the benefits at stake.

@andrewwhite4tx @grok @Dipper_pol Ideally we could buy into Universa, but retail investors at my level are WAY too small. I got a CFD account and bought a few puts but it's hard work, I didn't keep it up for long. If you want to make money in the market do the opposite of whatever I do and you'll win big!

@grok @Dipper_pol What level would you buy and what would it cost today?

Mark Spitznagel - founder of Universa, the "black swan" fund Nassim Taleb advises - on the most counterintuitive idea in investing: add a 3% sliver of crash insurance to a stock portfolio. give that insurance a 0% expected return - it makes nothing over time. it still raises the portfolio's long-run compound return - by roughly what you'd get from putting that same 3% into an asset returning 20%+ a year. how? by killing the deep drawdowns that quietly destroy compounding. but the insurance has to actually fire in a crash. one that only sometimes pays out is "like a parachute that only sometimes deploys - you're better off not wearing one." most "safe havens" - gold, the dollar, hedge funds, even a Picasso - fail that test. ~13-min talk, free. the man who made ~4,000% in the 2020 crash, on what actually protects you ↓

@AndrewRoy70 @I_amMukhtar £1.4GBP West London home. What did he live in, a shoebox?

@I_amMukhtar The Daily Mail has already decided whose side they're on Imagine if the Putney pusher had been a black lad

Remember in 2017 when a woman was pushed into the path of a bus on Putney Bridge by a jogger? Well, a 44-year-old multimillionaire private banker with ties to the Royal Family and a former British Army officer has been arrested on suspicion of attempted grievous bodily harm.

@rorysutherland @ClarkeMicah From a marketing, left field or any other non medico/legal pov is there a better, or best way to get more public support for Letby? The likes and comments on posts seem to be fading fast.

@ClarkeMicah I think your time is better spent exonerating Lucy Letby rather than excoriating the car. The first injustice is potentially reversible, I'm afraid the second isn't.

I do get tired of people telling me you couldn’t get around by rail, before the car vandals wrecked our system .This is the railway map#of England in 1922

@kyriakosel @nntaleb @AliBrownleetri Wander down to any Masters/Vets racing clubs and talk to the old blokes after a race. They (and me) can personally confirm this! AF meds/ablation almost universal. Stents less so.

@nntaleb can we do some research here @AliBrownleetri ?

Cycle, a lot if you wish but not too fast, not too competitely (& of course, do not race against yourself on STRAVA). Cardiac arrythmia is endemic in the cycling community. More papers documenting the problemo.

@GeraldCritique @nntaleb I'm a 73 yo ex (very amateur) bike racer. This checks out anecdotally with my peer group, and well before Covid

@nntaleb Interesting. The study coincided with the rollout of the covid jabs. Men were notably at risk of peri/myo-carditis from the injections. An injured heart being stressed caused more Atrial Arrhythmia.

@Liltall_Liltall Be glad you don't own shares

My Adobe subscription has a $270 cancellation fee to exit my contract I started in college in 2013. I’ve paid Adobe over $8000 and don’t own anything, and if I want to leave they’ll charge me a heinous fee that is hidden in the fine print, using dark pattern business.

@GoTizzGo @kayosports The work experience camera operator couldn't follow the action anyway. The ads gave about as much football info.

Fuck you @kayosports playing ads during the game!

@CjgbVictoria @Noahpinion Yes, I think you are very right. Above, or at least beside that I'd add legal title. Caveats, overlays, usages all good after that.

@Noahpinion When people hear "architecture", they think "architectural style"—but, while important, it's the least important element. Start with urban form: the layout of streets & public spaces, and building typologies. Then, the distribution of uses. *Then* style. Otherwise, you fail.

I don't think borrowing architecture from Europe will move the needle on American support for housing construction. Instead, we just have to make our cities better places to live. noahpinion.blog/p/will-america…

@SoJustFollowMe @X Do you know a back, or side door way into UNIVERSA fund? I'm way off being able to get in thru the front door, and I'm always anxious about big falls

ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT WALL STREET HEDGE FUNDS. Q3 2025 Right now, while everyone on @X, as usual, is running around debating who bought and who sold $MSFT, $AAPL, $GOOGL, $AMZN, $META, $NBIS or any other stock that doesn’t matter – I’m going to show you 3 tables. These cover hedge fund performance over 13 quarters, from July 1, 2022 to September 30, 2025: the first one highlights those who outperformed $SPX by 2× or more, and the next two show the eternal dead weight – the ones who can’t even match the benchmark, the ones who would’ve done better if they’d simply had the courage to buy $SPY and stop pretending they understand markets. For context, $SPX returned 86.53% over the same period. Be honest: who do you look up to? Whose photos and quotes do you post? Whose ideas do you like and whose “principles” shape your trading? What are your results over the last 3/5/7 years? Don’t hide from the truth – be honest with yourself. On the stock market, it doesn’t matter what books you’ve written, who your friends were, or what your results looked like ages ago. These numbers are a mirror… and for some, it’s painful to look. And as always – Remember: we are what we eat, we are what we drink, we are what we read, we are what we watch, we are the people we surround ourselves with, we are the ones we imitate, and we are the ones we idolize. Tired of losing? Tired of a portfolio stuck in the red? Tired of selling winners to prop up losers? Tired of treating earnings like a lottery? Tired of hoping “long-term investing” will save you? Maybe you’re just following the wrong people – like everyone else. And maybe that’s why your results look like a rollercoaster, not a path to confidence. Start by reading the post pinned in my profile and just start doing things the right way. It’s entirely in your hands.

@MattLutzPhi Bedtime reading - Gregory Bateson

My 4yo just pointed to a table and asked "Why is this a table?" I've trained my whole life for this.

@harpur_sean @80s_channel Running down the road all day

@80s_channel In bursts. they cannot maintain that top speed and only manage around 20 for the long distance, the bird however, it can just keep running and running and running.

@HakeemDemi @nntaleb Expensive Grok4 is less useful to me than old free one. Bigger mistakes.

@nntaleb Grok also made this mistake?

LLM DUJOUR Asked ChatGPT (as well as Grok & Claude) to identify books on some shelves to build a catalogue. It basically missed 2/3 of the books and INVENTED titles using the autocomplete function, a la Amazon algorithm "those who bought this also bought these". Hilarious.

@F1BigData If the both win, then sure!

🚨WINS IN F1 Both Piastri and Norris could tie Leclerc next week Leclerc - 8 Piastri - 7 Norris - 7

@TengristMaximum @nntaleb @SS_strength 72 yo cyclist here. Huuge heart issues in my mates and peer group with aged cyclists, AF esp, electrical and mechanical. Much more than non riding mates.

@nntaleb @SS_strength Literally all my friends who were lifelong runners had major orthopedic issues by age 50. A lot of the weight lifters have shoulder issues (bench press). Bicyclists and walkers? Just fine.

Actually, the opposite. Stressing the bone makes it gain in health & possibly expand. @SS_strength

@ArsenalAussie @optus_help @OptusSport You're getting more than me!

@optus_help @OptusSport Watch 3 seconds, buffers….for like a minute then I get another 4 seconds 😂

wtf @OptusSport Did you not pay your AWS bill? It’s like YouTube back when I had a 56k modem trying to watch Arsenal #A02
