@AlexTISYoung@littmath Human cognitive capacities cannot be framed or measured by any quantitative scale. Cognitive capacities are polygenic and genealogical, meaning the neurological structure adapts to perceptual and conceptual patterns, not the other way around. So called expert.
@AlexTISYoung@littmath I failed at the basic stuff in math and physics, even though I really tried hard. Still, I managed to get my bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering. This comment isn’t actually for you it’s for anyone who’s struggling and might read your hollow rubbish.
Periodic reminder that the only serious test of the hereditarian hypothesis on group differences showed that large differences in educational attainment were explained by environmental factors correlated with ancestry in Mexico. An example of The Bell Curve getting shredded.
My take on IQ and g hasn't changed(my take on heritability did tho, now I think gxe is stronger than gene-env correlation)
When I call someone "smart", I mean that said person has mastered a sufficent amount of cognitive subroutines , and is knowledgeable.
I've written the first part of a chapter on the heritability of IQ scores. Focusing on what IQ is attempting to measure. I highlight multiple paradoxical findings demonstrating IQ is not just "one innate thing".

I'll summarize the key points here. 🧵
@elephant_ben Quantitive statisticians when you inquire them how the fuck they can formulate a conclusion of categorical rendering about entire countries’s conditions from a arbitrarily selected samples with no structural sameness or compartmentalised proximity and then audaciously give their
@MTailamun Convinced now maybe just maybe this whole social system needs to go down if needed even a rehab campaign to make them humans instead of shifting the whole talk on the easy low fruit Excuse, government!
