Antifragile: Things That Gain from Disorder

"Antifragile: Things That Gain from Disorder" by Nassim Nicholas Taleb is a groundbreaking exploration of systems and entities that thrive and grow stronger in the face of stress, volatility, and chaos. Taleb introduces the concept of "antifragility," which goes beyond resilience or robustness. Through a mix of philosophy, practical wisdom, and real-world examples, Taleb illustrates how embracing uncertainty and leveraging disorder can lead to success and innovation. This book is essential for anyone interested in risk management, personal development, and understanding how to benefit from uncertainty and change.

I remember reading Antifragile when it first came out and it made a huge impression. It changed the way I think in plenty of subtle ways. I've been rereading Nassim Nicholas Taleb recently, starting with Black Swan. I really want to reread Antifragile this year too.

This is glacia if he was faster, and wasn't confined to one place. Goliath is everything the current glacia fails to be. Versatile, more appealing, and more rewarding to play while actually being a dps monster and not getting carried by a status effect. It has fair weaknesses like getting abused by kaiju with projectiles, extendos, and beams but these are necessary weaknesses to balance the kaiju out. -MrAz
