I think Trump is terrible, but Glenn is onto something here. I don't really like N.N. Taleb either, but he put it like this and it kinda makes sense: 1) When a collection of journos getting around minimum wage call someone consistently successful "an idiot", one is entitled to invoke Wittgenstein's ruler: you don't just use a ruler to measure the table, but the table to measure the ruler. (in Fooled by Randomness) 2) In other words, if reality continously delivers something that doesn't "make sense" to you, it is you that you need to worry about. 3) Commentary by anyone who a) ruled out Trump 's election, b) thought mahket wd collapse if Trump elected c) thought Trump wd be impeached within 1y should be ignored. https://twitter.com/nntaleb/status/949716728837222400 https://twitter.com/nntaleb/status/949716728837222400
