The invalidity of risk models (or do I trust my VAR calculations) | Criticality
https://steveedney.wordpress.com/2007/11/10/the-invalidity-of-risk-models-or-do-i-trust-my-var-calculations
The invalidity of risk models (or do I trust my VAR calculations). To continue some of the stuff raised in The Black Swan. I’ll discuss Taleb’s attack on financial models based on the normal distribution, this misuse of which he describes as the Great Intellectual Fraud. I considered entitling this “Am I a fraud? The collapse of Amaranth. The question I ask is do most practitioners actually believe that their models are an accurate description of reality? Anyway onto whether what I do is essentially frau...

Nexus 6: May 2007

Thursday, May 31, 2007. Normal service resuming from tomorrow. In the mean time, ponder this little gem. From "climatologist" William Kininmonth:. Increasing price by 30% = increasing. Rate of usage by 30 % = William's understanding of basic economics is not so good. Increasing rate of usage by 30 % = bringing forward the effective lifetime by 30 % = William's understanding of basic mathematics is not so good. William's grasp of climate science isn't great either, but we already knew that. The forth man,...

http://n3xus6.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 19, 2007. To post for a little while. Hopefully back in action next week. Probably a slightly wider focus to the blog from now on. Debunking dim-witted denialists has become a little like shooting fish in a barrel (with an anti-aircraft gun). Thinking of the families and friends of those affected in Virginia. And Baghdad. Am pretty saddened by this guy. Read the rest of this post! Posted by Green Scientist at 9:30 pm. Thursday, April 12, 2007. Ian Plimer: Doin' Oz proud. Seriously, El Nin...

The Narrative Fallacy in Weather | Criticality
https://steveedney.wordpress.com/2007/03/20/the-narrative-fallacy-in-weather
The Narrative Fallacy in Weather. Looking back at my most recent posts on rainfall I note that they were motivated at a reaction to what Nassim Taleb. The desire people have to make a post-hoc story to so all events relate with a strict cause and effect.
