They had bad grades in school, are unhygienic and yet have so much knowledge it's almost alien to the observer. For example, I know how UFOs work, know how to hack NSA, know how to build an untraceable smartphone, can tie science with scripture, know a lot about theology and the Bible (I believe in Eclectic Gnosticism + Hermeticism + Kabbalah - Lurianic/Zoharic), quantum physics is painfully simple for me to understand (I understand it like 2+2=4) – something most ACCREDITED physicists are struggling at, and my conclusions, discoveries and understanding of physics is aeons ahead of material science (because I'm of the Tesla/Nazi line of physics, in that I believe fields are fundamental - not matter). I study psychoneuroimmunology and how the placebo effect, and have developed custom cosmological models to rival Einstein. But yet I have no teeth, rarely bathe, don't clean my room, and I'm constantly caught up in deep philosophical/ontological thought. I hace schizoaffective disorder (manic type), clinical depression, ADHD, anxiety disorder, autism, schizotypal PD, avoidant PD and paranoid PD - I'm constantly having racing thoughts and my brain can think a mile a minute. Isn't it weird how this works?

What are your thoughts on economics?

Sometimes on X, as in real life, a discussion arises about Ashkenazi Jewish IQ. Such discussions usually involve claims (such as the one made by Grok above) that Ashkenazi Jewish IQ is superior to that of whites, which explains their observed over-representation in positions of power such as academia and politics. These claims are hotly disputed. As a psychological scientist, I thought I’d investigate, so that you don’t have to.

The 2005 Cochran paper referenced by Grok can be found here. In the section titled ‘The Psychometric Evidence about Ashkenazi IQ’, it states: “Ashkenazi Jews have the highest average IQ of any ethnic group for which there are reliable data. They score 0.75 to 1.0 standard deviations above the general European average, corresponding to an IQ [of] 112-115. This has been seen in many studies (Backman, 1972; Levinson, 1959; Romanoff, 1976).”

However, these claims, as well as the other claims from this section, cannot be verified.

Backman’s study can be found here. The most important table from it is reproduced below.

>we don't see other intelligent life in the universe because it's so rare for a planet to sustain life
Ok, but why don't we see artificial intelligent life which wouldn't have the same limitations as biological life in terms of the environment it can flourish in?
We're most likely simply the first intelligent life in the universe.

Can we have a general on logic? Any logician bros around?

How many of you can correctly answer this?

How do anti-determinists justify something coming from nothing, which is essentially what they believe when they support quantum uncertainty

Friendly reminder of a very well replicated study:

Thread question: what is your personal strategy for addressing patients who misunderstand the role of pharmaceuticals in health? I.e. "I just dont want to take so many pills" in a post-MI patient with a stent.

Literally and genuinely why are there still apes if we evolved from them?

What if you like took around a thousand people of all kinds 50% male 50% women beetwen 18-25 brought them on a island from which they cant escape and there is this giant computer that randomly assigns out meaningless tasks and plans out their daily routine and if anyone tries to form a hoerarchy or socialize more than the minimum there are drones with cattle prodes that shock them so if someone raises their voice, talks bad about others, tries to be violent or even helpfull he gets zapped.
And they have to socialize beetwen random groups and mate accordingly and everyone receives the same resources regardless if that day they had to write poetry or mine in the coal mines so there is no way they can better or worsen their situation, no hierarchy everyone gets the same treatment and the computer decides who mates with whom and who rhey socialize with and all the other stuff

What's the scientific reason for pic related? Did they just need more money to maintain their civilization?

Abiogenesis was a 10^-10000 freak occurance that only ever happened once in the universe and will never happen again. There's no such thing as Alien life.

Has anybody used their mathematics knowledge for gambling and sports betting?

I hate being retarded

why would an ayy lmao travel from the depths of space just to probe us ?

How do you think civilization would have been affected if Earth was the size of Jupiter? Nothing else changes in terms of life and gravity, etc. For one, it would take months to circle the planet by plane.

Do lesbians exist?

Time travel is never going to happen, is it?

why hasn't there been a man made mission to Mars done yet?

how does something like this even work? most of the time i can find the trick (it usually amounts to looking at a special line), but i'm never sure of my answer 100% of the time

is there a more surefire but boring way to solve this?

I wanted to publish philosophy text to some journals or magazines.
I found some big journal and the conditions are retarded
https://www.journals.uchicago.edu/journals/et/instruct
They say you can't for one year publish your stuff anywhere else, even on your own website or social media. You can't publish it on other journals too.

Should I just fuck them and publish my stuff on my website and forums or somewhere?
Give me good ideas how to post important philosophy/ethics text. Or some science text.

How to publish and market your science and philosophy discoveries?

We dont have quantum computers yet because quantum mechanics is wrong.
The Schrodinger/Dirac equation is only an approximation just like newtonian gravity is an approximation.
Quantum electrodynamics is garbage
Quantum chromodynamics is garbage of the garbage

Many physicists "an heroed" when this was first revealed.

It can't not be an simulation.

esmGFP is an artificial green fluorescent protein designed using the AI model ESM3, developed by EvolutionaryScale. The protein does not exist in nature and was generated through a simulation of 500 million years of molecular evolution.

Thoughts on this oaper? Is gravity a zero point fluctuation? And does this mean energy can be created then

why is ""being born or raised in a city" is one of the main triggers/risk factors for schizophrenia?

Is there a speed limit to how fast heat can transfer like c?

Probably a small brain question but with LIGO experiments, how do they know exactly the source of the gravitational wave? One of the first results was a black hole merger 1.3 billion light-years from Earth, but I would assume that there is a lot of noise between that and us.

>All matter is condensed light.
Can anyone dispute this?

What's Witty on about now? Is there really some sense in which a line and a circle always intersect each other, sometimes in real points or else in complex points? I've never heard of that but also I've had barely any schooling in complex numbers beyond "it's sqrt(-1) lmao".

>let's just forget about Brouwer and focus on the pragmatic side of mathematics, surely nothing wrong can come from that

I hate it, it's too "dry", too "mathematical", he barely explains anything intuitively or didactically. He just throws definitions and theorems at you and calls it a day. It's the Rudin of Differential Geometry.

Any good careers/jobs for full on math autism?
I love sciences and math and got into CS, the actual science part is cool (turing machines, algorithms, logic, math, physics, etc.) but I'm so done with programming and projects bullshit, idk how the linux nerds are into this shit.
I'm seriously thinking of just getting the paper quickly and instantly applying to office jobs, filling excels is unironically 10x more engaging and less stressing than making another report on yet another fuckass database.

It's fucking retarded to say a bunch of chemical reactions between nerve cells can create consciousness. It's like saying that the universe came from nothing. If materialism was true then beings could be at most biological automatons, but never have consciousness.

Why does the Primitive Technology guy have so much trouble, when it comes to creating usable iron out of iron bacteria he fishes out of rivers? Is it bad luck? Bad location?

I'm on the second semester of 4 of electrician trade school and I need ideas for a final project.

It can be anything related to the electrical field. It doesn't need to be something super complicated since it's just trade school.

Also if you are an electrician or an engineer any problem you see daily that you can relate or have an idea how to solve it

How do you know that even though the future was like the past in the past, that the future will be like the past in the future? and what is your basis for knowing that?

Here's a fun geometry problem for you. Think you can handle it?

The disks are sliding along a path defined by the top and bottom walls, they transition from a double file to a single file. What's the equation f(x) for the curve such that α stays constant but β is allowed to change.

If I have a high iq does that mean my opinions aren't retarded?
