Reflection on crisis: Daniel Kahneman and Nassim Taleb at DLD conference [video]
- numair 18y agoI wish everyone on HN would quit debating Arrington's spit incident (breaking news: man gleefully disparages European society, returns to Europe and is spit upon, and then proceeds to declare himself a victim of cruel and unusual punishment!) and would watch this instead. This really does so much to explain the core of our economy, its problems, and where we go from here. Totally loved Nassim's thoughts on medicine and religion as well... Even if you don't care about the economy, the psychological discussions here are very, very useful as an entrepreneur. Billions of dollars have been made on the thoughts contained in this panel session (see: John Paulson).
