Ok, thanks for elaborating. We're pretty much on the same page then.
I think these few guys also rub me the wrong way because they invoke their former academic credentials (MIT, PhD, etc) and use it as an argument of authority to back their mathematically meaningless models (power law, etc). Grifters that will be washed out, hopefully, when people realize the future cannot be predicted based on past behavior. Happy I got rid of Twitter once more, almost forgot about him.
