Nassim Nicholas Taleb on Work, Slavery, the Minority Rule, and Skin in the Game 8/14/2017

Key takeaway: efficiency hides risk. This should seem very obvious now to economists and policymakers with the breakdown of supply chains.

"Time and volatility are the same thing"

Me: 🤯

Morality must be a hindrance and annoyance for the host.

I agree that an employee is a slave. You have zero control over your job role as an employee. Your bosses and managers determine everything. When you say no, they’ll just discipline you or replace you.

I don’t like how Nassim argues everything tho. He comes off as a know it all when he isn’t right on everything he says.

I watched lots of Nassim interviews on the web, still this interview manage to be more informative than expected because of the interviewer.

I don’t know if Nassim would like this comparison or not but he’s like a modern Isaac Newton!

The speaker said in the course of under 60 seconds," I'm smart ", and "teachers aren't underpaid". Dunning-kruger much?

"I am a socialist (within my family) but wouldn't want that to extended beyond my family". I believe you just defined what a functional sociopath is.

underpaying teachers don’t filter out to create the best teachers… it creates shortages and a failing education system…
