Un viaje privilegiado que revela cómo los maestros del riesgo moldean el mundo moderno Nate Silver es conocido por revolucionar el análisis predictivo aplicado a los deportes, la economía y la política, pero antes de eso se ganaba la vida jugando al póker. En su nuevo libro, Silver parte de su experiencia como jugador para investigar a una comunidad de personas con ideas afines cuyo dominio del riesgo le permite dar forma y dominar gran parte de la vida moderna. Él la llama El Río. La mayoría de nosotros no tenemos los rasgos que comparten estos profesionales del riesgo: alta tolerancia a situaciones límite, gusto por la incertidumbre, afinidad por los números, una desconfianza instintiva de la sabiduría convencional y un impulso competitivo tan intenso que puede rayar en lo irracional. Para ellos, la complejidad es inherente a la existencia y el trabajo consiste en saber navegarla. Lejos de tratarse de unos outsiders, este tipo de personas acumulan cada vez más riqueza y poder en nuestras sociedades. De ahí que comprender su mentalidad (y los fallos de su pensamiento) sea indispensable si queremos entender qué impulsa la tecnología y la economía global. Al llevarnos tras bambalinas, desde casinos hasta firmas de capital riesgo, desde el interior de la plataforma de criptomonedas FTX hasta reuniones del movimiento de altruismo eficaz, este libro supone un viaje con acceso privilegiado a un mundo oculto pero esencial para vislumbrar la naturaleza de la incertidumbre en el siglo XXI. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The Instant New York Times Bestseller"Engaging and entertaining... a glimpse of the economy of the future." --Tim Wu, New York Times Book Review
From the New York Times bestselling author of The Signal and the Noise, the definitive guide to our era of risk--and the players raising the stakes. In the bestselling The Signal and the Noise, Nate Silver showed how forecasting would define the age of Big Data. Now, in this timely and riveting new book, Silver investigates "the River," the community of like-minded people whose mastery of risk allows them to shape--and dominate--so much of modern life. These professional risk-takers--poker players and hedge fund managers, crypto true believers and blue-chip art collectors--can teach us much about navigating the uncertainty of the twenty-first century. By immersing himself in the worlds of Doyle Brunson, Peter Thiel, Sam Bankman-Fried, Sam Altman, and many others, Silver offers insight into a range of issues that affect us all, from the frontiers of finance to the future of AI. Most of us don't have traits commonly found in the River: high tolerance for risk, appreciation of uncertainty, affinity for numbers--paired with an instinctive distrust of conventional wisdom and a competitive drive so intense it can border on irrational. For those in the River, complexity is baked in, and the work is how to navigate it. People in the River have increasing amounts of wealth and power in our society, and understanding their mindset--and the flaws in their thinking-- is key to understanding what drives technology and the global economy today. Taking us behind the scenes from casinos to venture capital firms, and from the FTX inner sanctum to meetings of the effective altruism movement, On the Edge is a deeply reported, all-access journey into a hidden world of power brokers and risk-takers.

Perfect for Sensitive Skin Without Feeling Heavy
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have very sensitive skin and finding a facial moisturizer that hydrates well without causing irritation can be a challenge. This one has been fantastic. It feels lightweight going on but still gives enough moisture that my skin stays soft and comfortable all day. No strong fragrance, no burning, no breakouts, just simple and effective skincare.
I also really like that it layers well under makeup and doesn’t leave my face feeling greasy or sticky. The ceramides and hyaluronic acid make my skin feel healthier and more balanced overall. Vanicream continues to be one of the few brands my skin consistently tolerates well. I’ve already repurchased this and will keep using it.

Good for sensitive skin, zero fragrance, leaves skin soft and moisturized!
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I got this to go along with my Vanicream sensitive skin cleanser, and I'm very happy with it! It is a little more liquidy than cream-like, but it absorbs into skin well and leaves it feeling soft and moisturized. Great for sensitive skin and completely free of fragrance, with a shorter ingredient list that gives me more peace of mind. Very pleased with this, try it!

Great Value for a Good Moisturizer (5- Stars)
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This moisturizer contains nothing fancy — and that’s the whole point. The ingredients are few but effective, with several ceramides and hyaluronic acid for deep and long-lasting hydration. Best of all, it contains no silicones or parabens. Because it’s noncomedogenic, it doesn’t cause breakouts from clogged pores. Since I have sensitive skin, all of the above are critical for my skin care routine.
It’s about as simple and as effective as a cream can get. Because of that, it doesn’t contains any sunscreen, retinol, or other anti-wrinkle components.

Very gentle, lightweight, absorbs well without feeling greasy or heavy. Perfect to use after Fraxel laser treatment. I also like it is fragrance free and really good on sensitive skin.

Medium weight minimal ingredient moisturizer!
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
As with another review, I’m looking for a replacement/dupe for Eucerin Urea Repair face moisturizer which is 5% urea
Skin concerns: dry rosacea, mid-40s, arid climate with 4 seasons, winters are cold and snowy and summers are 90°+ for most.
This is a medium-weight moisturizer that I consider not greasy at all. It is not as hydrating as I need it to be for my dry skin type with rosacea. Thickness wise I say it is similar to a standard facial sunscreen.
It does last overnight, in the morning I can still feel it in some areas. I will try increasing how much I apply in order to see if it helps with how much staying power it has. This may increase the hydration it provides and I will update my review to report back.
I had a very mild stinging sensation but my rosacea is struggling since moving to a dry climate. Once I repair my skin barrier a bit, I fully expect this will cease.
Due to this, I’m not going to get my husband to try it, he has constantly broken skin from severe eczema and stinging is something that makes him not use moisturizers. It’s a battle!
For people in more humid climates this may be a more effective moisturizer, or those with less-dry skin than me. I never have flakes so this wasn’t a parameter for me.
There is no tint. I’m not sure about white cast so I can’t rate it for skin tone. But I don’t feel there would be, this seems translucent unless you really go in with it.
For me it is reasonably effective. It’s probably a good day moisturizer and I expect it plays well with sunscreen, though I would definitely let it absorb or dry down. Which is pretty standard for daytime skin care.
There is a slight grippy feeling when applying, but this dissipates like the Eucerin Urea Repair does.
This is not, for me, a replacement or dupe for Eucerin Urea Repair. It is a great value for the price!
Overall for someone with skin like mine I rate it a very solid 4/5. I would likely purchase again for a lightweight moisturizer as a more affordable substitute for Beauty Of Joseon Dynasty Cream for day. Though this does not give me the “bounce” that does. Alas.
Updated to add: I tried increasing the amount I apply, and that eliminated any grippy feeling when applying. I now apply both day and night and this has helped repair my barrier enough it doesn’t sting when I apply this. I still have a way to go before I can return to using my sunscreen, but I do work in a building with no windows so the few minutes I am outside, it’s okay if I go without.
If I apply this to my eyes, it doesn’t sting them, which is great, my eyes are extremely sensitive and I hesitated, but it works out just fine. It isn’t thick enough to cause whiteheads to form on my lids, unlike some balm-type moisturizers (LRP!) and even unfortunately Bioderma Sensibio Eye+
I have noticed the backs of my hands are improved as I wipe off excess onto the backs of my hands and into my cuticles. I was genuinely surprised by this, it’s not like I don’t wash my hands. I wasn’t expecting it to have any effect, but the stinging scaley hands are gone, now my hands just feel normal, even after wearing wool fingerless gloves all day at work.
I will continue to use this product and will repurchase even after my financial situation improves.
