quote 21:04:57
“ Taleb is scathing about the value of daily newspapers in general, recommending a total rejection of them - “additional knowledge of the minutiae of daily business can be useless, even actually toxic ”
Dan Hill, himself quoting from the book by Nassim Nicholas Taleb, The Black Swan. I must admit, I do often think I’d be better off ignoring day-to-day news and just using the Economist (although I’d love a similarly meaty alternative to it).
