The source doesn't call it unsettled.

Given that epigenetic changes through life are a thing it doesn't seem too terribly ridiculous to believe that training could cause it, and if it's just in general IQ increases it seems like you could probably chalk that up to generations of people actually getting enough (and enough of the right stuff as our knowledge on nutrition increases) to eat. Like how people used to be a foot shorter on average a hundred or two years ago. Your brain takes up a ton of nutrients, makes sense to me that it'd get better too

>epigenetic
Lol.

Do you... not believe in epigenetic changes?

Alright well I got the paper cited

I'd post a screen shot but.. I can't oh I guess I can in pictures

I didn't say that they're *really* higher in IQ, though it depends on what you mean when you say that. Got caught in some stuff while hunting down primary sources, because I dont remember then off the top of my head. Gonna be focused on work for a bit as well but I'll try to remember to come back tot his when I have time

I'm looking at the paper he said shows the flynn affect is bullshit lul https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0160289613000226

I hate meta-analysis

Yeah one of the sources I found prior that was backing my points was just a meta-analysis, so I was digging into their individual sources to see if I could find the shit I'm trying to verify from prior readings into this

Hitler should have homesteaded.

Hey @Myth is there a debate schedule for all the upcoming debates on the server that you mentioned on the call-in show last week? I'm particularly interested in the Holoconspiracy debate lol

idk about the 19th amendment debate but the holo debate won't be til mid december

Hmmm ok... is there a schedule for all these?

not aware of one

talk to @Myth and @Neon_Flipflop for the 19th one, since they'll be debating it

Hah

@A. Spader
Did Neon ever agree, or did Myth just assert that?

idk

I haven't seen neon here for awhile

Deputy Minister not showing up to work...? Unacceptable.

@A. Spader
You find it funny that you and I agree on like 95% of stuff, but your the only one willing to sack up and debate me?

Or is that just me?

It is strange

Oh, I just thought of a topic.

"Does a person's biology influence their personality/behavior?"

I wonder if anyone would be willing to debate that...

@Nyaboron

I doubt it

Lol.

sup

See my question?

it's stupid to think biology has anything to do with anything other than dick size and skin color

@BarbaricWafflez the night of debates there will be an @ everyone on announcements

Do you know which nights the debates are going to happen?

your mom

You're mom*

Actually, skin color is influenced by the climate where you live. If you are in a colder area your skin will be lighter then if you are in a tropical area.

"Mom what are you doing on discord?"

@Unironic Ohio Supremecist I'd talk about Culture vs Biology.

I think its a good topic, and regrettably I don't think they're easily separated.
