Googled "Talebian" and came up dry, but yeah. One thing that comes to mind that's used widely to thicken things like non-dairy milks (Soy/Rice/Almond) or anything that needs to be thickened/gelled is carrageenan, a seaweed extract that's been tied in multiple peer-reviewed animal studies to cancer.
- Blahah 12y agoProbably referring to Nassim Nicholas Taleb [0], who puts emphasis on the importance of random, rare events. 0. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nassim_Nicholas_Taleb http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nassim_Nicholas_Taleb
- cholmon 12y agoGoogle instead "Nassim Taleb", in particular his ideas surrounding iatrogenics (harm done by the healer), and "via negativa" as a heuristic for fixing systemic problems, i.e., removing things (chemicals/drugs) from a system (human body) to reduce the complexity of interactions and side effects.
