Florian's problem? My problem!
Authored by: MDT on Tuesday, August 21 2012 @ 12:29 AM EDT
My Problem is more important than FM's problem.

My Problem is that FM won't make stock recommendations on his website! I could
get absolutely filthy stinking rich if he'd make stock recommendations! All I'd
have to do is do the opposite of what he suggests... I've never seen a man with
such a consistent rate of being completely and utterly 180 degrees wrong.

Most people who are wrong are at least wrong at angles from the correct answer,
like missing how much the settlement will be for, or when it occurs, rather than
that it WILL or WILL NOT occur.

Florian is wrong more than random chance.

Why do people quote him?

If i flipped a coin on all the things he has opined and let random chance be my

guide, I'd be right much more than he has been. Everyone knows this now. In
fact i'm having trouble thinking of a correct prediction of his.

Even though he admitted being paid by Oracle while predicting doom for
Google people still quoted him and yet again he was completely wrong yet
again. Is it possible that many tech journalists are lazy or stupid?

Regards

Franki

Any evidence that Flo is considered an expert?

I mean by average people not on Groklaw? Just wonder if he is only an irritant
to us and not anyone else.

Why even mention this guy Florian is NOT worth the effort.

He probably likes to see his name in print .
