@bnuyaminim Minaret seems an exoname rarely used in Arabic (typical: مأذنة؛ المآذن؛ المئذنة؛ مئذنه؛ صومعة). For Manara = commonly lighthouse, Φάρος. https://t.co/UtGjFKpY8xمنارة — PolitiTweet.org

The entire point, see Chap3 of Stat consequences of fat tails, is that under fat tails, most eigenvalues are noise. LLN works slowly even when eigenvalues exist. Marcenko-Pastur REQUIRES the 4th moment. https://t.co/tHuwkGfr79 — PolitiTweet.org

Farmer is the archetype of the "science bullshitter" fellow in #Antifragile who needs a scientific model before riding a bicycle. I compared Farmer's inability to work in finance to Fat Tony's talent: he knows how to operate in the absence of models. #Incerto — PolitiTweet.org

@spyrosmakrid A lot of value in publishing. But not in metrics and commoditizing publishing in a way to be gamed. — PolitiTweet.org

THEY GOT IT BACKWARDS! There are more flaws with the Danish Mask Study. In fact what is not flawed provides an overwhelming evidence in favor of masks (risk reduction >70%, perhaps >90%). https://t.co/30k63kWJyn https://t.co/IBxWs1y4QJ — PolitiTweet.org

"Productivity" in academia is not measurable, neither in # of citations, nor # papers. It's a metric for rent seekers & administrators. 1 mil papers/year & few results. If he's not enjoying "productivity", and visibly enjoying Twitter, he should stay that way. Apolafse ti Zoi! — PolitiTweet.org
