Liars announce that they are saying the "truth", without anyone asking them; shills claim they are promoting it.

(Remember that "Pravda", the Soviet organ, meant "truth")

Conditioning also conditions the conditioner.

RISK MANAGEMENT 101 we teach students: What @sapinker says is 1) wrong, 2) dangerous, 3) unrigorous & primitive *scientism*, with probability approaching 1.

@johnlitt of course it's not scientific, it's alright, I was just curious to see in different languages how much of resistance evolutionary theory encounters, so in a sense I'm more interested in the stuff people click the most anyway =)

Nassim Nicholas Taleb Retweeted:

"Libertarianism is about replacing authority with laws (legal systems, courts). Hard sciences (math, physics) obey laws, bullshit disciplines (psychology, history, sociology) obey authority. In the absence of #skininthegame, authority evolves to BS. In anything." - @nntaleb

RETROSPECTIVE BIGOTEERING
1) no law is retrospective
2) you cannot blame people of a violation of a moral rule (or law) if they could not be possibly aware of such a rule, if such rule came AFTER their actions.

This is similar to the retrospective distortion in #TheBlackSwan.

@JadChaaban is also a target of the smear campaign.
I can hire someone to identify the source. After the Monsanto episode we got to know exactly how these are done.
Also easy to sue people involved in the story in NY or LDN if they cover up for losses. https://twitter.com/JadChaaban/status/1200863656843661313?s=20 …
