The article is strange to me. First, I thought Taleb scorned the FT crowd. Second, since when did he start writing in bullet-pointed pop journalist style? Maybe this was an experiment or a joke. Or just a bad day.
- jerf 18y agoThe last line in the article is "In other words, a place more resistant to black swans." I bet an editor "amped up" the title to "Black Swan-proof" without asking the author. And he may despise the FT crowd, but that is also exactly the crowd his message needs to be in front of.
