My work is NOT about nonnormality/fat tails.
Of course economists & epidemiologists KNOW that data are not Gaussian. My entire work is on the CONSEQUENCES: what works & doesn't work under fat tails and which METRICS to modify particularly the LLN

You will only start worrying about the dollar status as a reserve currency when you see long lines outside tbe Brazilian, Russian, Iranian, and Chinese consulates full of young professionals seeking immigration visas.

Friends, so far, if you are experienced in East Med cassoulet, no worries, you are (currently) safe from ChatGPT.
To make a real lamb cassoulet, you NEVER use canned beans but soak dry beans overnight.
Actually, you soak red beans, but that's another discussion.

The historical event that worries me the most is how fast Hitler took Germany from a relatively disarmed and economically crippled state into a militarized aggressive one. The rearmament too less than half a decade! nitter.moomoo.me/i/web/status/163…

Warning: The propagandist Nini Teicholz @bigfatsurprise has a record of MISREPRESENTING the claims of papers in favor of saturated fat for naive bystanders.
Take her claims on the effects of statins on pple w/dementia with a loooooot of caution.

Yesterday, broke the 2000 miles mark, 3200 km (since August).
Even something as silly as tracking miles makes sense since it fools you into compliance.

We knew @Snowden was a despicable individual of v. low intellect.
He is body shaming the fellow ONLY because he has no argument. Transactions in crypto are limited to circular trading by cryptoheads (financial onanism) & unskilled money lauderers.
