I much prefer context in the title, and find this antipathy to editorial headline construction ridiculous. I'm not likely to open a thread just because there's one comment on it, and the original title is so generic as to be uninteresting.
This is a mistake. Taleb's title makes we see in context of Taleb's website. Taleb did not wrote the headline for HN's benefit. This is not Talebs website, so we need to compensate for the different context.
The way to supply context for a story you're submitting is not to stuff it in the title, but to post it as a comment to the thread. Had you done that here, you could have shared with us the Facebook link where Taleb describes what he's doing. That would have been more informative, and in keeping with the HN guidelines as well.
