@xjr358 @maintcraft He accused me of doing a Dobelli (systematic plagiarism) on a single very standard textbook example. Fuck him. — PolitiTweet.org

FINANCE DUJOUR Sizing of positions is key when you short a bubble. After >3 years of short, ended up covering HLF (rel. small position). Went in after Aikman capitulated. Why? Wait until the shorts hit uncle points. Naive shorts are usually correct but have too large a size. https://t.co/yQCKAy49aM — PolitiTweet.org

@Chris201450 @amasad I have no idea what he is talking about (I am blocked) but I assume is some technogibberish. — PolitiTweet.org

Technical Note: It turns out that Risk Ratios are artificially made to be lognormal (Log RR is normal). This is a patch. More rigorous: ratio of frequencies follows a distribution similar to Beta Prime [Just derived]. We assume frequencies follows the most robust: Beta. https://t.co/MdWfZnPnC9 — PolitiTweet.org

@davidboxenhorn @EricRWeinstein What is the discussion about? — PolitiTweet.org

Aside from the fellow not knowing anything abt Marx, the pbm is that unless interest rates go back to zero, in the absence of high cash flow, valuations are just monopoly money, symbolic. Nobody will be able to cash in. — PolitiTweet.org

@helvetehansen @amasad @Replit Of course, since you're an idiot who can't read. It is not just crypto but aggressive technoidiots subsidized by valuations. — PolitiTweet.org

I never had a great intuition about who will eventually succeed, but over time my olfactory system got better and better; can now smell from 1 mile (eq. 1.609 km*) away if someone will fail or blow up. *5,280 feet — PolitiTweet.org

@amasad 2) The bot (and myself) blocked >20,000 people who harassed me with such insults as the "Have Fun Staying Poor" (and worse, much worse insults) after my "Bitcoin Black Paper", so I do not hide my current merriment. Homo sum. https://t.co/jYrMRlshuO — PolitiTweet.org

2) The problem is the push in the opposite direction: the future will end up being too gerontocratic, as we can see with American presidential choices. — PolitiTweet.org

Part of the pleasure in the crypto collapse, aside from the financial gain, is delighting in the demise of those ageist, experience-shaming, & immoral now bankrupt (SBF) or prebankrupt technobeciles(s.a. @amasad), most of them will end up as janitors in provincial school bdgs. https://t.co/ZxscIuIZuA — PolitiTweet.org

@HomegrownJoan2 @denbrewer @bigfatsurprise Yes... Systematically rejecting anything nonancestral is foolish (we wd have missed on many things etc.) but rejecting conditionally UNTIL a study shows opposite is sound. — PolitiTweet.org
