@Maj. Asshole I need a meme, quick

2018-12-14 04:10:51 UTC  

Someone complained that the other ones were too full of scientific terms

Benis you're *really* not helping yourself here.

2018-12-14 04:11:15 UTC  

Thanks ❤

2018-12-14 04:11:23 UTC  

So I posted one that was made for a non-scientific audience

2018-12-14 04:11:40 UTC  

I wouldn't have said it if someone did specifically complain about it.

2018-12-14 04:14:18 UTC  

Holy shit you’re so smart dude

2018-12-14 04:14:29 UTC  

So, where's that 50% figure come from?

2018-12-14 04:14:30 UTC  

I think my brain just broke trying to read that

2018-12-14 04:14:42 UTC  

They're talking about a _measurable influence_

2018-12-14 04:14:46 UTC  

@Runes Abstract says well over 50% in adulthood.

2018-12-14 04:14:53 UTC  

>abstract

2018-12-14 04:14:55 UTC  

nigga

2018-12-14 04:15:00 UTC  

do you even cite shit

2018-12-14 04:15:44 UTC  

Also, just a bit of a FYI - Scientific papers do not make them valid or true.

2018-12-14 04:15:48 UTC  

Yes I know that for perfect grammar you are supposed to say *the* abstract.

2018-12-14 04:15:49 UTC  

^

2018-12-14 04:15:56 UTC  

I mean ^ for runes

2018-12-14 04:16:18 UTC  

But I'm not writing a scientific paper here so I'm not following any citation conventions

>Grammar policing to hide being wrong

2018-12-14 04:16:31 UTC  

Need we point to feminist academia for more evidence that just because it's published doesn't make it true. Or even sensical.

2018-12-14 04:16:32 UTC  

I never grammar policed

2018-12-14 04:17:33 UTC  

Feminist academics don't rely on empirical data and falsifiable claims

2018-12-14 04:18:03 UTC  

IQ science is absolutely hard science because it deals with very concrete data points.

2018-12-14 04:18:06 UTC  

Also, you originally stated that there should be tax incentives for high IQ people to marry and have kids. But this is about cognitive abilities, and this does not directly correlate to an IQ test.

2018-12-14 04:18:11 UTC  

WOW

2018-12-14 04:18:12 UTC  

WOWOW

2018-12-14 04:18:26 UTC  

IQ is the best way to measure general intelligence

2018-12-14 04:18:30 UTC  

No?

2018-12-14 04:18:40 UTC  

Okay, reading that abstract, it straight says there's no evidence of the genes causing heritable intelligence.

2018-12-14 04:18:40 UTC  

It's not perfect, but it is the absolute best way to right now.

2018-12-14 04:18:46 UTC  

Again, intelligence spans many spectrums

2018-12-14 04:18:55 UTC  

IQ accounts for that.

2018-12-14 04:18:58 UTC  

No

2018-12-14 04:19:00 UTC  

It doesn't

2018-12-14 04:19:02 UTC  

It measures general intelligence

2018-12-14 04:19:12 UTC  

No. That's been proven to be the opposite. It's no longer the standard.

Also a true IQ test isn't even what most people think it is.

2018-12-14 04:19:12 UTC  

There's other things it can measure as well.
