@AStratelates It must be ice cream consumption. Are you serious about this post or are you just putting it to confuse people abt Covid? — PolitiTweet.org

3) Finally @yaneerbaryam presented a clearer model busting the selfish gene & backing up E.O. Wilson, based on mean-field theory (which I will present in my mini-lecture on CONVEXITY). https://t.co/QuWOwp2kFI — PolitiTweet.org

2) Perhaps the problem is that Wilson himself was not the math/probability modeler, so could not argue and defend his models. I learned from his episode to avoid publishing w/mathematicians, forcing myself to develop all equations on my own. https://t.co/zP7H398ZF0 — PolitiTweet.org

@geoffreydgraham Note: "Vax mandate" is ill-defined. Federal mandate has testing exclusions. And businesses are free to require people to drink apple juice before entering premises. Some people are against got mandates w/o testing exclusions. — PolitiTweet.org

RIP, E.O. Wilson, a giant. It's sad to see his obituaries include criticism of his ideas by @Dawkins (whom he called a "science journalist") & who, along w/@sapinker, with handwaving verbalism, attacked his later work w/o grasping the probabilistic modeling behind it. https://t.co/ixOc4B0JHD — PolitiTweet.org

@geoffreydgraham If someone's argument is coersion vs. externalities, he/she must argue about coersion vs. externalities (a very valid argument) not myocarditis, misinform about cumulative disease transmission or play with statistical artifacts. — PolitiTweet.org

@NachoOliveras REMOVE THIS CRAP OR YOU GET BLOCKED! You must compare incidence to control, that is pre-Covid cardiac events. And athletes are known to be prone to >> cardiac events than fit nonathletes. — PolitiTweet.org

Anti-vaccine disinformation uses perceptional tricks traders know well: when you lose $, show details of portfolio w/+ to distract; the mind doesn't aggregate P/L.(as w/distraction w/Myocarditis). Context: +Vaccines saved millions, contained Δ, turned o infections into a picnic. — PolitiTweet.org

@otrasenda_AC How many lbs? — PolitiTweet.org

Nassim Nicholas Taleb @nntaleb

@otrasenda_AC I did 100 reps, 20 sets of 5, (20 cleans, 100 presses) yesterday. I picked 65% of my 1 rep max and only did 5. I usually do not do lower weights but I did so for the tissue perfusion/blood flow. At no point was I tired. Next da (today), feels great and no soreness. https://t.co/hn9CloPTCC — PolitiTweet.org

@joe_shipman @ContrarietiesCY @dmitry_vm @TweetingPietro Your DISCUSSIONS and posts seem ALL to be aiming at spreading out-of-context DISINFORMATION. — PolitiTweet.org

Nassim Nicholas Taleb @nntaleb

@joe_shipman @ContrarietiesCY @dmitry_vm @TweetingPietro How many people <40 have died of myocarditis ? — PolitiTweet.org

Nassim Nicholas Taleb @nntaleb

@joe_shipman @ContrarietiesCY @dmitry_vm @TweetingPietro You don't seem to grasp what´s going on. Posting such claims IS disinformation as readers don't see the context. And in general your nitpicking IS disinformation. — PolitiTweet.org

@ContrarietiesCY @dmitry_vm @TweetingPietro You are doing EXACT disinformation: myocarditis as one side effect vs Covid where it is a minor risk among others ? — PolitiTweet.org

@TweetingPietro @ContrarietiesCY Whoever professional is making this claim understands NOTHING abt data. We have data from other countries to compare vaxx efficacy pre-Omicron both for transmission & mortality. In US >1 m died (adj from 815K) & 1,500 still dying every day, plus morbidities. Not risky? — PolitiTweet.org

Nassim Nicholas Taleb @nntaleb

@TweetingPietro @ContrarietiesCY No. That is not information. And testing lowers the CFR since the number of cases increases. Your graph does not have whatever information antivaxxers are trying to make it say. — PolitiTweet.org

@mikeharrisNY Yes, a common mistake: in finance you must be coherent with the same metric. r is the compound, never use it for overnight bank income without retranslating. In quant fin, r is the norm. — PolitiTweet.org
