Antifragile

Nassim Nicholas Taleb

Taleb's concept of antifragility — things that benefit from volatility, stress, and uncertainty — reframes how you evaluate ideas, systems, and inputs. The Lindy effect sits inside this larger argument: what has survived repeated cycles of pressure is more trustworthy than what has merely been proposed. Dense in places, but the central ideas repay careful reading.
