>>16909042So do we discuss the immigration factor in this thread or no
>>16909043>Originally, IQ was a quotient obtained by dividing a person's estimated mental age, obtained by administering an intelligence test, by the person's chronological age.This is why IQ has fallen since the victorian age and the reason no one takes the values obtained then seriously: they are not scientific measurements and were always based on arbitrary metrics like the chronological age of the person and their "estimated mental age".
>>16995885Immigration isn't a factor. The decline is below margin or error or test scoring benchmarks being higher than usual that years.
>>16995889The Victorian-era calculation wasn't based in mental age / chronological age * 100. g was discovered in 1904."In 1912, William Stern (1871–1938) standardized the test scores of the Binet–Simon Intelligence Test. He achieved this by dividing the mental age by the chronological age. The number this calculation produced was the widely known intelligence quotient or IQ."https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binet%E2%80%93Simon_Intelligence_Test The Wechsler (1939) popularized standardized scores (100 + (raw score - norm mean) / SD) * 15)).The Victorian-era calculation is based on standardized scores using the z-scored method.“The difference between the meta-regression trend-weighted present (2004) simple RT mean (275.47 ms) and the trendweighted 1889 mean (194.06 ms) is 81.41 ms.”
>>16995803Who the fuck was talking about global literacy?"According to data compiled by Our World in Data and the World Bank, the literacy rate of the world's population from secondary school age onward was only 12 percent in 1820 - around one person in ten. In 1900, it still barely exceeded 20 percent. From the 1950s on, world literacy began to take off, hitting 42 percent in 1960 and 70 percent in 1983. Today, the global literacy rate stands at 87 percent, or almost nine out of ten people worldwide."https://www.weforum.org/stories/2022/09/reading-writing-global-literacy-rate-changed/https://ourworldindata.org/literacy

Claude seems to think D-Aminos can signal bacteria to break up biofilms, and that this increases the effects of mouthwash.I have a bottle of D-Aparitic Acid handy from a fitness supplement (discontinued, weird heart effects).Do you think this will actually work to kill off some early cavities, or at least is worth experimenting with?

DeepSeek-R1 revolutionized AI by proving that world-class, human-level reasoning can be achieved through highly efficient training methods rather than brute-force computing power. It democratized access to advanced artificial intelligence by significantly lowering the costs of development and making its powerful weights freely available.DeepSeek-R1 reshaped the AI landscape through several key breakthroughs:>Massive Cost & Hardware Efficiency: DeepSeek trained its flagship model for an estimated $6 million—a tiny fraction of the hundreds of millions typically spent by Western competitors. It achieved this largely using older generation hardware, circumventing chip export restrictions and proving that smarter architectures are a viable path forward.>Pure Reinforcement Learning (RL): Unlike traditional AI models that rely heavily on thousands of human-labeled answers to learn (supervised fine-tuning), R1 was trained primarily via reinforcement learning. By using mathematical and logical rules, the model taught itself to "think" and optimize its own outputs.>Transparent Chain-of-Thought (CoT): R1 forces the model to "think out loud" before delivering its final answer. Users can see the model's step-by-step reasoning, self-correction, and doubt. This brings unprecedented transparency and debuggability to complex problem-solving in math, coding, and science.

What is your text editor of choice? I've always used latex, but recently I found that quarto (from posit) is quite comfy if you routinely uses R or Python. You just make a good YAML header and there's little reason to use anything else. It's also nice that it can output simultaneously pdf, docx and even the .tex code. This is quite useful if you work with people who are still using word/gdocs. The only issue I've seen thus far are tables. Making simple ones are easy, but if you want something more customized it's kinda ass - doable, but kinda ass.
>>16995620I just want a simple table editor. Not spreadsheet for calculation. Something that supports sorting. Multi-line. Wrapping long entries. Think wikipedia’s tables.Many kinds of information are organized as lists and tables. But the support on stuff like obsidian is still poor. I think it’s the insistence of these modern programs of making everything underneath as readable plain text, markdown-flavored. Making certain features clunky to implement.
>>16995708Line-wrapping in markdown tables is a super difficult computer science question. Basically P vs NP level. That’s why no program can do that.https://forum.obsidian.md/t/word-wrap-in-markdown-tables/2859https://old.reddit.com/r/vim/comments/18diw38/wrap_long_lines_in_markdown_tables/https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15955160/markdown-table-with-long-lines

Why is the Fine Structure Constant always represented as 1/137 even though that’s not accurate, and there are infinitely many better fractions to represent the irrational constant? Despite this, physicists always use 1/137 or a variation of 1/137 (such as 1/137.035999177) but they NEVER use a more accurate fraction like 4889/669969. I don’t think there are any other examples of physical constants being represented as a fraction with a decimal in the denominator. Anyone who passed 5th grade math knows that a fraction with decimal places can just as easily be represented as a fraction WITHOUT any decimals.Also, 137 just happens to be the 33rd prime number. 33 is the master spiritual number. AKA the most important number in Freemasonry, the age that Jesus died, etc.How do we get rid of the disproportionate Freemason influence in the hard sciences?

At high particle energies, \(\alpha \) strengthens to approx. 1/128, and it's not a prime; it might be the maximum age?

There's a neighbor I really don't like. He's recently demolished his house and plans to build another using the money he got from suing a local business (onsite injury or somesuch), but I want him out of the neighborhood, and I'm not the only one who feels that way. One of my friends came up with an idea while we were blackout drunk: let's buy a bunch of apple seeds and plant them all over the site before construction begins. Then, in 10-12 years, it'll slowly completely erode the foundation of the building.Could this even work? What would happen if we planted a bunch of trees beneath a house either before construction began or one the earth-moving parts have been completed? I don't know anything about construction or trees, but this seems like an incredibly evil (but not illegal) thing to do, so I'm curious.
>>16995242>we had an idea while blackout drunk>this somehow doesn't disqualify the idea from the startmaybe try getting blackout drunk with your annoying neighbor and come up with an idea for how to get more blackout drunk together

What I find mysterious about consciousness is the idea that a bunch of unrelated and independent atoms that make up your brain can interact in such a way to create your subjective experience. It's mysterious how something can be greater than the sum of its parts in this way. And it occurs to me that we know of another phenomenon similar to this: quantum entanglement, the phenomenon where two particles have a relation to each other, and thus they're not really independent of each other and together form something greater than the sum of their parts. So what if our subjective experience is related to this phenomenon or is in fact a version of this phenomenon?
>>16987935To that context consciousness seems almost like a metapattern to wholistic and reductionistic ideas and civilization and the contents to ideas about psychology to consciousness and claim the ego id and super ego were part of the contents to consciousness and to that line of thinkmg >>16993119 >>16993153 that any -ness were reification and that consciousness to and within that context was reified idea within context to sphere to reified ideas and reification within that context was reification to ideas and patterns and commodities and to that context that reification had the context to patterns and poetry and to that context the traces to reification would also have left traces to and through language or something like that

Is it me or is this paper retarded? It claims that cold-water-extraction of codeine from paracetamol doesn't work because when they tried, 60% of the paracetamol remained in the filtered solution. However according to the paper they dissolved essentially 4g of paracetamol in 250ml of water at 4 degrees celsius. Another paper said paracetamol has 8mg/ml solubility in 5 degree water so that 250ml should dissolve about 2 g paracetamol. This would explain why they were still left with just over half the paracetamol in solutionSo it didn't work because they used too much water. But this seems obvious, I don't see how the University of Australia could have made such a mistake. Am I missing something here?
I am going to assume this paper is retarded and my lean is good and not going to kill me. Used 100% real grape juice as well.
Someone please help because I'm scared to CWE higher doses of codeine in case the paper is right.
>>16993404>"ACCURATELY weighed amounts of APPROXIMATELY 1.6 g ibuprofen lysinate"
>>16993404the study is about ibuprofen, which is distinct from paracetamol, so there's a enough retardation for everyone
