@ArtemisConsort The fact that Scott did use Sailer's name, albeit indirectly, suggests to me that Scott himself wasn't embracing the Voldemort Principle. Rather, he may have withheld Sailer's name (perhaps reluctantly), anticipating that his analysis might otherwise be dismissed.

@RichardBSpencer Joke?

@SwipeWright @MsMelChen When family shrinks, the evolutionary drive to repopulate goes into overdrive.

@cremieuxrecueil Does Pangram distinguish between editing rough drafts for grammar/style and generating content from scratch from raw data dumps?

@AvalonInst I'd really like to go, but it's just too much travel time for me. I hope they'll record much of it so those of us who can't make it can watch afterward.

@itaisher @elonmusk
@slatestarcodex just threw down on @sapinker over AI safety.

Match the bet with real money.
Put @grok in the moderator’s chair.
Stream it live on X.

This could be the intellectual event of the decade.
Make it happen.

@cremieuxrecueil cremieuxrecueil: Are you anti-pit bull because you think most are vicious, or because you believe a small but significant percentage—say, 5%—are dangerous enough that caution dictates treating every pit bull as a potential threat?

@MatNuclear The debate is between environment-only and environment-plus-genetics. Hereditarians don’t say it’s 100% genetic—the real extremists are the environment-only crowd.

@cremieuxrecueil Maybe border counties are defined as counties where a large number of residents commute & work out of state--Tennessee is only a little over a 100 miles top to bottom so if there are a lot of job opportunities across the border, maybe a lot of Tennessee counties would qualify.

@cremieuxrecueil But aren’t IQ-test subtests weighted to produce equal mean scores for males and females, making overall average sex differences impossible by design?

@ConceptualJames If race realism is real, it undermines the claim that disparities are proof of discrimination.

@cremieuxrecueil No dated adoption timeline, just year-end buckets? As adoption spreads, low-adopters shrink while high-adopters grow — how is this shifting comparison controlled for? Also, the last-year mortality spike for low adopters, with no proposed cause, points to a selection bias problem.

@RichardHanania "There’s times in science where the best policy is don’t go there." Isn't that the same thing they told Darwin?

[twimpotent @twimpotent]

@RichardHanania Would you have told Charles Darwin the same thing about his breaking of taboos?
