      actually maybe the real cc here should be @StuartJRitchie since a table from one of his books is used in this post

      Oh I meant I'd be curious to get your response. Having trouble pinning him down on a clear argument. He's mad though!

      Can't bear to. I've seen him argue on here about p-values, GMOs, all sorts of stuff. He's invariably wrong, invariably angry, invariably tries to baffle you with maths, and you invariably get mobbed by his crazed followers who all parrot his weird catchphrases. What's the point?

      He's just making that up. There's no evidence of a threshold, at 100 or anywhere else. See e.g.https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/pdf/10.1177/0963721410391442?casa_token=LPNbNQnFSC8AAAAA:2t8bAHqhhQE55REYWJVgQtr4yvzUw6FdU6K1Afdf04CoX-HOJ6W3Gf6JbyFeZTLr4vINuDwSZjo …

      That's not true that there's "no evidence of a threshold." My colleague Emmanuel Jauk found support for a threshold effect using segmented regression analysis. I don't think the Lubinski studies are the final say on this by any means.https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S016028961300024X …

      What is frustrating, however, is that @nntaleb isn't engaging with this literature. There is over 100 years of research on this topic that could be thoughtfully discussed.

      Stuart, am I being too naive to think that he may be willing to engage in thoughtful discussion if evidence is presented calmly and ad-hominens are left out of it? I see a lot of ad hominem in both directions.

      Very naive. Challenge him on GMOs and see what happens.

          NNT is the only one who gets it right with GMOs. Celebrity professors who lecture in New York City have skin in the game. Farmers in Nebraska do not.
