Against the Atavistic Strains in Nassim Taleb

Since I have all but indicated one should say “שנתן מחכמתו לבשר ודם” upon seeing Nassim Taleb I should add more criticisms.

I recommend the short paper titled “The Unconstrained Vision of Nassim Taleb” by RYAN H. MURPHY. Find it all over online.

It starts slowly but it’s pretty short and it gets far more focused toward the end.

Short version: Nothing is wrong with corporations or orange juice.
