    It took me a while to learn that really smart people you have immense respect for will still get a lot of things massively wrong

        1/ I’ve never equated “smart” w/ “correct”, though they often correlate. Smart just means sophisticated models, &/or faster (brain) hardware

        2/ Smart people are wrong all the time, look how often smart people disagree. That can happen right in the face of more correct folk wisdom.

        I think this is something @nntaleb talks about in Antifragile and probably other parts of the Incerto series.

        You do- you’re right sometimes & you’re wrong sometimes More you do, the more of each, right?

        That is what Oedipus Rex is really about (tace Freud) so those w/ good Liberal Arts Ed usually learn that sooner than you did.

        Life is really, really hard. Somewhat related: the faster a smart person makes a decision, the harder it is to admit it was wrong.
