The bed of Procustes
https://youtu.be/7T6MXfO_yRY The Bed of Procrustes: Philosophical and Practical Aphorisms is a philosophy no voice video by Nassim Nicholas Taleb written in the aphoristic style . Here you will find sentences displayed in order to make you think. In the Greek myth, Procrustes was a son of Poseidon . There he had a bed, in which he invited every passer-by to spend the night, and where he set to work on them with his smith's hammer, to stretch them to fit. In later tellings, if the guest proved too tall, Procrustes would amputate the excess length; nobody ever fitted the bed exactly.
