What’s more, higher scores on WAIS and ASVAB are even less correlated with eachother than lower scores.

Still sifting through the data myself to have a look, but this study seems to suggest it doesn’t (at least with educational outcomes).

Hurling ordure at the TREACLES, especially those closely related to LessWrong.

Posts or links discussing our very good friends should have “NSFW” ticked (Nice Sneers For Winners).

AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from our very good friends.

This is sneer club, not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

[Especially don’t debate the race scientists, if any sneak in - we ban and delete them as unsuitable for the server.]
