But environment will influence access to resources
True. the people would invent things to be able to live in the colder environments .
This looks like something from a commentary channel
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RmHY04YtfQE
Or ways to gather stuff I guess?
Starting point would vary for all test groups as well
Maaybee. Within the survivable range
So near the middle.
Well more like, have 100 groups of test subjects
Have each group start from the warmest survivable environment
Towards to coldest
Ok
So theres also the issue with what would they start off with?
LIke say, they all need equal resources to begin
@Deleted User There may be some truth to that, but are Chinese and vietnamese both asian?
So, test subject groups of three categories.
Mixed, controll, and pure.
Put into environments that are either static, or dynamic
@LEER can we get back that latter.
Put into different starting points.
Sure I will bring it up when there is silence
Grouped by terrain type?
Ok sounds good @LEER.
So you said earlier @GingaBomber that you wanted to put them nearer to the colder parts.
Uh not really
ok so were do we want them?
More put each group in different areas
Ok that makes more sense.
I mean in different tests, all test groups are seperate from one another
So say we have a world that is a constant line
Hotter on one end colder on the other
Infinite.
And have groups start in constant points along that line
Starting from the coldest suvivable and warmest survivable
Or make them start in the middle and have their ability to travel into either end as part of the scoring
Ok I like the sound of that.
Also dont forget there is the dynamic one as well
One where seasons are a factor
Of course.
But that I dont know enough to comment.
We already know how seasons contributed to societal structure
Lastly, I was thinking of a goal.
Like when they start, they are only aware of two things
A goal, and a common language
ANd some will have no goal
And others no language
I'm just a layman race realist not Philippe Rushton.
Ah damn,
And Im just a scifi fan
But is a goal and language is important?
Culture is something that should happen as the experiment progresses
Ture cultures would occur.
Goals would also be, resource accumulation, pop growth or even migration distance.
Well they would devolp into something.
So heres the thing, from there people can prove is genetics plays a factor beyond a few things we already know.
So whats already proven or commonly understood as of now?
We have intelligence which is split into ability to grasp new ideas, ability to develop new ideas, and ability to process ideas.
Learning/adapting, creating, and using.
I think that the whites and Asians would develop those ideas because they have a higher average IQ then the Blacks would.
Then theres also physical
Though people atributed that to resource availability
I mean, dont forget that whites were in an environment that nessessitated that
Seasons
Also, would it be more accurate to put in an even grouping of males and females. and have them all be the same? As in, the single defining traits of all of them put into one individual.
In each test.
With a larger one consisting of all different.
I'm going off the averages. but yes there would be some outliers.
We kinda need outliers I guess
Like I dont think a society of all geniuses would survive well
Since they will be busy coming up with new ideas, and bickering with one another. Without the less intelligent there to put them to use.
And well a society of idiots will end up with obvious consquences.
But lets just put it in as a test case
More test cases grouped. Most intelligent, least intelligent, and average
And mixed equally
So we get a bell curve
Outliers are a thing but for example if a environment which had very bad winters which to survive the people who live in that environment need to have a average IQ of say 90 to just get by. That would mean that if the people in that environment had a average IQ of 80 most of them wouldn't survive. There would be some outliers who would but if their aren't enough that population would die out.
So how the smartest black would perform against the dumbest asians for example
But well, you can also study societal structure from that alone
How each group will treat their smartest and dumbest
True the dumb ones would die in those types of winters.
Thats also kinda culture in its own
At first id assume.
Theres also physical strengths but thats kinda very diverse.
That depends on the population
Asians arnt tough by average. And id reckon outside the millitary whites arnt either.
I know obesity is to blame
And that not all are weak
Ignore extremes here as well, we want the average healthy person with no blemishes
That includes being of "optimal" weight
Some groups tend to be nearer to the average while others have a greater cluster. And that is also compared to males and females for example White males tend to have more geniuses but alot more retards while female whites tend to be nearer to the average.
Compared to blacks both Whites and Asians aren't very tough on average.
Isnt that true for all races though?
That women are generally more consistant?
Cause if one men is defective, thats just one gene gone. But a woman being defective is disastrous since thats alot of potential decendants gone
I think so. I know Asians tend to be more consistant compared to whites.
Though thats also due to less dynamic environment Id argue
Its alot of different terrain types there.
But I dont think they change very much over the seasons.
As I said earlier I'm just a layman so I don't know for sure.
Ah just offering my point.
I would imagine that would play a part.
Theres also another factor, resource availability
We have the japs that got on with very little metal and the euros that got on with well, enough of it
So how hard it will be to gather food.
Pleantyful with no seasons would be like africa or south america?
Pleantyful with seasons is like europe.
True have less resources available would create alot more pressures.
Or just change the focus
Like alot of resources can mean two things
They dont bother with innovation, or they have more time to innovate.
With that I would point out that Africa is very resource rich which would make it a easier place to live. Which is why I think that blacks evolved the way they did. They just had a easier environment which prevented selection of genes for intelligence and prevented innovation.
Hell, id say the same for the mid east before the sahara started eating everything
Also, you said earlier
Very ture.
the lack of seasons
No reason to unite against a common threat
all very true.
So it became of the smartest
To the strongest
The ones that survived were the best at fighting and taking.
And time spent innovating was time spent not training and fighting
And well, concentrated resources would create a culture of fights over resource points
I would also add the ability to organize. The Europeans and Asians created towns which organized into cities, then organized into countires and then into empire.
Though id argue that communication made it easier to do so
And well, it was like a race
YOu had to choose a side or be wiped out
True you can't organize if you can't communicate effectively.
All that needed to happen was one tribe getting bigger than another through growth.
And it dominoed from there.
And well, it got to a point where the nation couldnt communicate within itself efficiently.
And thats how it would then collapse when the people were too spread out to have a common goal.
Do Indians and Pakistanis count as Asian?
I would say evolution tends to take shortcuts. I think a good example is visual spatial intelligence which allows people to navigate over long distances but that bassicly useless when maps were invented.
Arabs? Mesopotamians?
Actually, you could argue that innovation also makes certain traits unessesary
Like before the asians, it were the indians who were amazing with math
But well, say if every one had a calculator, how long before they dont see any reason to keep going with math
True some inventions make somethings that evolved useless.
You cant affect that with the starting conditions in my opnion
@GingaBomber you'd still need math for theoretical concepts
Besides the demographic of the test group
For example what use is being very strong these days.
Surviving in a city?
Self defense?
I mean, people are coming up with situations for an excuse to be strong
Like sports.
Manual labour?
And jobs.
Being strong is pretty useful
But we live in a society where the weak are compensated by the strong
The weak compensate with other means
Or innovation allows the weak to contribute
Yeah, machines and guns, I suppose
So like prosthetics or tools
But being strong serves the same purpose as before
Which will affect the culture progression
I was just giving it as a example I'm sure there are better examples to prove the point.
So how they treat the weakest/dumbest at the start
It was a good one
Enough
And well, how they progress
Most societys get ahead by discarding the young and weak
Weak young I mean
I think the visual spatial intelligence was a better one because we have maps and other means of navigation.
Well warfare is something common though
With all cultures
Like say, a sharper knife needs less force to deliver the same amount of damage
And well, to defend youself, youd have to learn how to fight, and the different methoids your opponent might use
But all you need now is a gun, an alarm, eyesight and a working hand.
And a brain
Well I've enjoyed this discussion but I have to go to work in the morning.
Ah me too
Good night then.
But you know why I decided to change the topic earlier right?
I was hoping we could discuss it without the emotional investment.
So sorry if it was so abrupt.
Same topic, but in a different manner.
That was probably a good idea.
Well, if it works, id do it again. I had fun and I hope you did too, have a good one.
It was a interesting thoughts experiment.
You too mate.
@Deleted User that's about right. Basically, conform politically. They can't define what to do, only who not to vote for.
I'd ask her further, but she's my girlfriend's best friend and I don't want to piss her off

@Deleted User @GingaBomber
I would counter your claims that innovation makes evolved traits useless.
take of example the internet. Given how easy access to the internet is in most developed worlds (and even in some non-developed worlds) the need to memorize certain info has become near useless. Why do i need to know how to fish when i can just look it up when i need to? However, that doesn't make the process of memorizing or learning stuff useless. Now you use the space in your head that was dedicated to one learned action for remembering how to find the knowledge of several different things when you need them. Visual spatial intelligence is still needed to convert what is on a map into what is in front of them in the real world. People who are bad at navigating are still bad at navigating, even when you give them a GPS. Things are invented and designed to free us up to use those sames faculties in new ways.
Innovation doesn't make evolved traits useless, evolved traits simply result in further innovation.
another example: I am decent at math. not the best but apparently better than most of my classmates. Because i had a calculator to do 2+2 didn't mean i didn't need to know 2+2. it was a speed aid to allow for faster computation of a problem. However for some things, like 2+2, the calculator was slower than just knowing it, or knowing how to calculate it in my head. However, on complex problems, it was additional brain power.
also often times, the presence of a calculator didn't make those classmates actually better at math
just because you test well doesn't mean you know anything.
I mean its a given that some traits are less usefull as time goes on.
But some will stay relevant.
Like it only proves you know how to do something. You know what adding is, but not how to do it without aid.
You can argue that tech also lowers the barrier of entry as well.
Or that it allows people more time to to spend on other tasks.
it allows for specialization
which is both good and bad you could say
means people get extraordinary at doing things, so well they are better than whole groups of people doing the same thing. However, means these people are usually terrible at doing anything else other than their specialty
its both a blessing and a curse
and means that people who are maybe average at everything are left with nothing to do
i'd say start with her
quick, someone hand her a gun! she is clearly failing at her other suicide attempts
I agree.
She does childrenโs cartoons, which is pretty fucked up.
So Super Man is against a wall in the Atlantic Ocean blocking European immigration?

Which was presumably built by the US government in accordance with the democratically expressed will of its citizens.
so... an illegal alien is destroying something that americans constructed?
lmao
i love how the left says "we are build on immigrates" then forget the entire point of Ellis Island, which turned people away for various reasons
Dosent help that they dont differenciate between legal and illegal

Good quality shitposting
But it should have been huehuehue no ?
I'm archiving that
but why?
Cos it's gold and may be deleted
I take it germany lost against brazil? At least I won't have to deal with months of football related advertising then
it only gets gold if switzerland and serbia win later today ๐
nah, bavaria lost against south korea ๐
always satisfying to have one of those standard "pro" teams get canned early on,
I was sad when Argentina still made it
i find it satisfying whenever bavaria loses ๐
Tfw silenced
Nice one
So they cant complain that the govt dosent let them
Lol previously it was just Hindu temples
Good on them
Looks like Trump's caps lock button is broken https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1011952266268545024?s=19
Liberals using statistics
A clip from Terry Gilliam's Brazil, a satire inspired by 1984.
sargon...
Of course a dem says that
Get guns or depend on the police
isn't the answer a good reason to switch sides?
I dont know
Some leftist told me she hated guns because they enforced inequality
My answer was that if they didnt sell enough to purchase one. They dont deserve security.
And that they dont value the life of themself and their family more than the price of a gun
If you can't scrape together the money for a nugget you got problems.
i like how her name is slaughter
Her plans for the repubs once the guns are gone
