they can still be failing at the same time or causing each other to fail together. So you might not get rid of that fragility of this system by some kind of structural reform of who can do what. So you're not going to the heart of the problem, to the heart of that fragility .
I wanted to have the same feeling of impermanence and fragility that they have out there, and I wanted to be
How? Simple. It's the acceleration that allows me to detect the fragility , the acceleration of harm. If I have a bad ruler, I can't measure a child, the height of a child.
So let me talk about my book after I showed you these technical definitions. This book-- I realized that this property of anti-fragility , once you had the definition of fragility and then you have its opposite, was misunderstood in the discourse.

If the regulation thinks they're safe, but they're actually risky and pay a lot of return, that's the place to go. And they'll all go there and get more concentration and more interconnectedness and more fragility in the system. So I mentioned before, the risk weights, one source of fragility .
