1701710652 随机生存的智慧:黑天鹅语录 BEING A PHILOSOPHER AND MANAGING TO REMAIN ONE
1701710653
1701710654 To become a philosopher, start by walking very slowly.
1701710655
1701710656 Real mathematicians understand completeness, real philosophers understand incompleteness.
1701710657
1701710658 In twenty-five centuries, no human camealong with the brilliance, depth, elegance, wit, and imagination to match—Plato to protect us from his legacy.
1701710659
1701710660 Why do I have an obsessive Plato problem? Most people need to surpass their predecessors; Plato managed to surpass all his successors.
1701710661
1701710662 To be a philosopher is to know through long walks, by reasoning, and reasoning only, a priori, what others can only potentially learn from their mistakes, crises, accidents, and bankruptcies, that is, a posteriori.
1701710663
1701710664 Engineers can compute but not define, mathematicians can define but not compute, economists can neither define nor compute.
1701710665
1701710666 Something finite but with unknown upper bounds is epistemically equivalent to something infinite. This is epistemic infinity.
1701710667
1701710668 Conscious ignorance, if you can practice it, expands your world; it can make things infinite.
1701710669
1701710670 For the classics, philosophical insight was the product of a life of leisure; for me, a life of leisure is the product of philosophical insight.
1701710671
1701710672 It takes a lot of intellect and confidence to accept that what makes sense doesn’t really make sense.
1701710673
1701710674 A theological Procrustean bed: For the Orthodox since Gregory Palamas and for the Arabs since Algazel, attempts to define God using the language of philosophical universals were a rationalistic mistake. I am still waiting for a modern to take notice.
1701710675
1701710676 Saying “the mathematics of uncertainty” is like saying “the chastity of sex”—what is mathematized is no longer uncertain, and vice versa.
1701710677
1701710678 Sadly, we learn the most from fools, economists, and other reverse role models, yet we pay them back with the worst ingratitude.
1701710679
1701710680 In Plato’s Protagoras, Socrates ontrasts hilosophy as the collaborative search for truth with the sophist’s use of rhetoric to gain the upper hand in argument for fame and money. Twenty-five centuries later, this is exactly the salaried researcher and the modern tenure-loving academic. Progress.

1701710687
1701710688 有些行当,例如“经济学家”、“妓女”和“咨询师”,即使再进一步详细分类也提供不了更多信息了。
1701710689
1701710690 数学家从问题出发得出解决方案,咨询师从“解决方案”出发创造问题。
1701710691
1701710692 他们所谓的“风险”,我称之为机遇;他们所谓的“低风险”机遇,我称之为愚人的问题。
1701710693
1701710694 组织就像是在咖啡因刺激下倒着跑步的傻瓜,你只会听说其中极少数碰巧到达终点。
1701710695
1701710696 要判断一个人是否极度愚蠢(或者极度聪明),就看经济和政治新闻对他来说是否有意义。
1701710697
1701710698 左派认为市场是愚蠢的,所以模型应该是聪明的;右派认为模型是愚蠢的,所以市场应该是聪明的。双方都从来没有意识到,市场和模型都是极度愚蠢的。
1701710699
1701710700 经济学就像是一颗死亡的恒星,尽管看上去好像仍然在发光,但你知道它已经死了。
