- Luc 12y agoThat's so wrong I don't even know where to start. Which, I suppose, is how Dawkins feels about Taleb's 'scientific contribution'. Actual, real contributions can be made to arXiv, by anyone. Posting on Facebook that you checked the math and it's legit, though somewhat simplistic to your standards, is not a scientific contribution, it's NOISE.
