@james_lefler Exactly. But I was in a Boeing dreamliner & somehow saturation never went below 90. Even in normal times saturation drops on transatlantic flights. — PolitiTweet.org

Friends, a nice way to start the week with an elegant integrand. There are as many ways to solve the integral of sin[x]/x as they are ways to mess up a trading strategy. Again, please limit to math comments. [Pollution of the feed with cute & non-math related remarks = block]. — PolitiTweet.org

4) I am followed by a lot of Bitcoininst/Covid denying cranks (in spite of the automatic blocking of eyes)... they got there via #Antifragile & of course they don't get the idea & are infuriated that I get to different conclusions on the topics. https://t.co/58RlIRd4cH — PolitiTweet.org

3) The worst error is to separate the economy vs Covid via defective MBA trade-off analyses. Higher Covid is not better for the economy. https://t.co/0MASA5N0MS — PolitiTweet.org

2) Another error about Covid: thinking that since mortality is lower for the young and/or healthy, that the SEVERITY will be necessarily lower for them. Do not conflate survival & severity rates. — PolitiTweet.org

Nassim Nicholas Taleb @nntaleb

A severe error in reasoning both in the Covid-denying cranks & their respondents: "All these reactions for a virus that *only* (sic) killed 500K". Without the said reactions (public & private) the death rate would have been much, much higher (both directly and indirectly). — PolitiTweet.org

2) The internet DELIVERED immediately after the spread of the WWWeb. It did sneak up on us; it provided daily new PRACTICAL solutions. It was useful. It did not need a sect of losers telling us theories about "what it can do in the future". It was delivering IN THE PRESENT. — PolitiTweet.org

Bitcoinism, like Statism, Communism, Soviet Socialism, Architectural Modernism, Naive Scale-free Libertarianism, is a severe form of UTOPIANISM (what I called "Platonicity" in the Incerto). There is this destructive urge to reinvent utopianism under new unrecognized forms. — PolitiTweet.org
