Man that’s right
No wonder why I liked it so much it was really all just call backs to my Bay Area roots
No, he just stopped answering the questions about the actual concept so there was nothing more to post on it, nor could I parse if he actually understood anything because he used the same indices for everything, so I linked him to a nice reason why he's a dumbass
Asoul can you admit to me that ewiz is a talented mathematician
i mean i did google and dig up a more articulate and detailed version of hbotz' argument on why game theory favors capitalism over communism with some heavy assumptions about what's desirable and some heavy assumptions about the "game" of production
and then proceeded to call it dumb without actually refuting it on its terms because its terms are stupid and idc what hbotz thinks
A reminder - ewiz argued with me for 14h straight several days in a row on a topic where his level of expertise was "I took a class in 2012/13 and googled the indices." He will continue arguing with me if I respond to anything on the topic
To any clear-eyed reader of the hbotz/ewiz exchange above it's clear hbotz, not ewiz, has more expertise on the topic (he's more comfortable with game theory/finance topics, probably some actual schooling or work experience there) and him not saying "Hey Dumbass I've Read The Books And Took A Class In 2013" doesn't make it not true
Monaco owns too, nice sucks though
Ewiz's level of mathematical skill and schooling is lower than like 90% of the people you'll meet if you go live/work in certain parts of the world
I'm not going to elaborate beyond that because it involves talking about people's personal info
ive assessed that ewiz has been generally more right when talking about hedge funds in the big picture and youre the one spouting the popular "they dont deserve to exist because some of them go belly up and can't beat the indices" argument and cherry picking more
He's forceful/aggressive dunning kruger and communicates with the intention of defeating/cowing people, not discussing/understanding - you all fell for it
I'm sorry but you are horrifically wrong
i hvae also assessed that you're the one who's been aggressively dunning krugering for the most part

sure you can believe this. then to that i ask for a convincing and viable alternative. because for me, who is secure, revolution is scary and it sounds like lots of bad things can happen, so i would like a picture of a good thing that can happen.
so when ewiz posits communal labor where everyone gets an equal share of the return irrespective of their actual contribution, that doesnt sound like a good endgame, because i intend to slack off and i expect many others to do the same.
Iaafr - maybe you should consider what I typed above
You're the one speculating here about shit you don't know about, I have clearly stated that people have experience even if they aren't announcing it to win arguments on the site, and ewiz's experience is severely lacking
Wanna respond to the citations and the data on HFs? Wanna show they're correlated with the market and that EW index funds are functionally equivalent?
How about explaining how using the law for reform doesn't contradict all the SCOTUS decisions that destroyed everything gamed by the Civil Rights movement?
How about a response as to how nonviolent movements gain legitimacy without violent movements?
How about how violent movements are necessary for fixing societal issues due to their antagonistic, rather than conflictual nature?
Lol none of this has any weight when every point you make is refuted time and time again with actual evidence and argumentation, then you can't respond and just make dumbshit quips that don't apply, create bad faith false analogies, and try to bait me into saying something likened to the Nazis
Yes, so have I. And I bet a more broad level of qualitatively different experiences. Have you train-hopped across the country and back with no money? Hitchhiked down the coast? Watched friends get murdered? Completely supported another household financially?
I’ve heard great stuff about the Czech Republic too
i mean it's a mirrored situation when you both present roughly similar levels of evidence that im willing to actually dig through (and you guys dont actually dig through each others arguments that deeply)
and i have failed to see any evidence of you being the more experienced one with the better perspective; i've just seen you insisting on it a lot
Yes, I acknowledged he'd find shit written that way, and also said that the application of game theory that he was using has a bunch of unfounded assumptions that contradict statistical behavioral data
It doesn't matter at all that I don't present evidence, I don't have to present evidence about my life to win an internet argument
You can tell from what I wrote and what hbotz wrote when we are more comfortable with a subject than the guy. Him arguing endlessly and calling people dumbasses doesn't make him right it just makes him annoying
yeah Prague is lit
sorry i see it the other way around
but i mean i'm sure you're going to mold that into me being the ignorant one in your worldview so w/e
