>>	Anonymous Fri May 22 23:17:53 2020 No.15428522 His writing style is bizarre, I can’t follow anything he’s saying

>>	Anonymous Fri May 22 23:19:58 2020 No.15428542 >>15428508 I don't read books by fat people.

>>	Anonymous Fri May 22 23:20:18 2020 No.15428545 >>15428522 This It’s especially infuriating because he makes a lot of points against fluffy non-actionable, intellectual masturbation bullshit but everything I try to read from him seems like fluffy intellectual mashurbation bullshit

He's wrote about the shoes. I think it's in Antifragile.

His fashion model is Otzel the Iceman, because it's more Lindy. Otzel wore shoes that enable you to feel the soil behind you. Basically, it's a way of avoiding idealized geometric surfaces and going back to the fractality of nature. It also makes your foot more resistant.

What's the point of having muscles if a single thorn is capable of destroying your effeminate feet? Do you want to have a pair girl's feet or a masculine pair?

If you can't understand that, you're not very smart. Taleb is right in wearing those shoes.

>fluffy non-actionable, intellectual masturbation bullshit
that's not what his points amount to, that's how YOU understand it, because you can only think in terms of vague generalities, trends, and styles. he's saying something very specific. his books could just be graphs and charts, but he's willing to talk to you. too bad you don't know how to listen

>>	Anonymous Fri May 22 23:34:25 2020 No.15428625 >>15428602 Fat, yes -- it's an essential macronutrient. Morbid obesity (the condition Taleb is afflicted with) however, is not.
