@yaneerbaryam This is fantastic, thank you!

Which confirms my theory that Quillette is managed by a collection of low-intellect, low-skilled BS vendors, using poorly warmed up pseudoscience to promote a eugenics agenda and, of course, incapable of hiding it.

@sapinker @yaneerbaryam The Squared residuals reveal the Winsorizing. They are a power low but someone did something funny to the data.

Here we go again. The replication crisis is now hitting IQ
studies...
Used the same approach as I did with fakescholar @sapinker, under recommendation by @yaneerbaryam: first use THEIR own data, then proceed to uncovering theoretical flaws.

1/ The French have a distinction mathematician vs. "matheux".
+ The mathematicia(e)n is like someone who composes music; doesn't have to perform, be good w/instruments. Invents math.
+ The matheux is someone who plays an instrument; can be a virtuoso but doesn't compose music.

@Rubywax just heard the news! Really sad as I was looking forward to seeing you in edinburgh.. But clearly your health is more important (this isn't a passive aggresive euphemism!) Hope you have a speedy recovery! Much love and keep up the good work.

They should be spending their time figuring out how to get a better handle on intelligence scientifically, instead of using an impotent metric to establish a rank-order of humanity while claiming they are simply driven by the truth -- no, they are driven to establish "the order"

@ProfessorF This is absolute bollocks.. I'm a teacher and what kids need are good teachers which has nothing to do with race what ever that is

The larger the corporation, the more likely it will try to screw citizens.
Your local butcher, barber, grocer, and baker aren't in the business of lobbying/manipulating science.
Monsanto, Weapons makers, Pharma live off coersion, manipulation of science, & propaganda

The IQ situation even worse. Found that here is no correlation IQ- income/wealth at highers levels EVEN FOR LOW IQ.

Hence the math used for "g" fails. Psycholophasters do not seem to know what correlations mean under nonlinearity.

And, BTW @jordanbPeterson is a quack.

@GavPrentice Well done mate!!!

IQ WRAPUP
These IQ psychologogs can't answer my point abt elementary yet severe mathematical flaws w/the "IQ" measure. All I got is a downpour of BS from @charlesmurray, @gmiller, @StuartJRitchie, @Ptetlock, the @Quillette boys

"IQ"≠ Mental abilities
