What we’re about
We are a group of practitioners and academics that are interested in learning more about Nassim Taleb's risk, statistical and finance works in the Technical Incerto. In this reading club, we will aim to read through the first volume of this series:
Statistical Consequences of Fat Tails: Real World Preasymptotics, Epistemology, and Applications
The book is made freely available on arxiv here:
https://arxiv.org/abs/2001.10488
Join us if you are interested in these topics! We will discuss each chapter and present some code reproducing the examples and techniques in the book. All meetings will be done online.

Fine print:
We are unaffiliated with Nassim Taleb (although we enjoy his work) and the activities of this group are performed in our own capacities and not in those of our employers or professional organizations. Note that no liability will be accepted as a result of attending these meetings.
