Why do you say he is a psuedo-expert?
Also can you give reasons for having such a negative attitude towards him?
I read his book 'Fooled by randomness' and was quite impressed. It presented a completely different and refreshing view of complex systems and processes.
- aaron695 10y agoHe just spews out babble. His whole Black Swan Theory is meaningless. You can't predict unpredictable events - Tautology. People will try and explain it afterwards - standard hind-site. A turkeys 'Black Swan' is the butcher.... so....? There's nothing the turkey can do about it, hence it's meaningless. It's like the standard high school....oooo... moments where you think what if 'people see color different', 'what if we are in VR'. Fun to have, but meaningless when trying to understand/change the world.
