You know that there are very very few people in the UK who are creationists right?

[Dennis G Daniels]

4:50 we live in a world that is much more fragile

[Lee Kwang Soo]

If it was not for people like Taleb i would have no hope for humanity....

[NoName NoFame]

EU is a bad idea through and through. talk about "too big to fail" ...

[NoName NoFame]

yeah on this side of the pond the favored " intellectual" of the administration is krugman... UGH... 

[Malik Koné]

Maybe that's why Cameron is now trying to take UK out of EU. to reduce interdependence and risk contagions coming from EU.

[kustomz2001]

There is always an end.

[Peter Heise]

This man should be listened to and taken seriously. Thanks Nassim.

The problem with Taleb's antifragility model is that when the players all move toward that position, the fragility domain changes and needs to be redefined meanwhile new castles are formed, but it will take corrections to find the new information. This is due to human hubris which cannot be managed.

Simple solution: add another, then another shell!
