It's too controversal for A.I. to answer, and I know DNA effects your pheramones and there must be some inherent feature outside of diet, why do Asians smell so strange like plastic byproducts or like burning paint that's been rained on?

he proved that statistically the collatz conjecture is true. pretty huge result imo.
as far as im concerned the media hyped him up not himself. although when he did that collab with masterclass that was very funny.

besides, idgaf about muh millennium prize problems. perelman may have solved the poincare conjecture but tao gave us two amazing analysis books. for me that is worth more to me than the poincare conjecture because in all honestly, i will never understand that.

I'm racially (as in descending from the slaves and their masters) african-american, so this topic perturbs me particularly.

I'll often peek into and sometimes speak in "chud" spaces, and one thing I've seen an increasing amount of is the claim that american "blacks" are actually becoming dumber. From what little I've seen, this phenomenon seems to be limited to big cities, and noticing just how fertile the dumbest of "black" women are, I'm willing to bet that the cause is just immigration. I'm still concerned, though, because I also know that our mean iq *seems* to have stopped increasing in the early 2000's after reaching 88: I recall a counter study to a claim that we now had an average of 93 in 2010's?(I actually don't remember where I read it nor when it was published) showing that there was no increase from 88 when age was standardized, so I don't see an actual decline as impossible. Then again, immigration could've also acted to mask any gains that have occurred since then..

Regardless, I'd like your input.

Nah. The guys juat pushed the updated score to high. It always fluctuates for IQ tests so so years people "score" higher, others lower. It's an unavoidable part if the testing because you effectively have to predict where the next appropriate benchmark to use as a comparison.

Do people actualy considering economics and sociology /psychol ogy a science?
>>
>>16866225
No, Mr ESL. Next question.
>>
Currently not yet, but economics has a shot if it wanted to truly be one, there are some notable efforts of incorporating concepts of math used in physics and also the so called dead discipline econophysics. But for sociology I don't think it could qualify as a science unless you put a broader definition where you would include humanities as a social thing I guess which would ruin and need different interpretations for the term and would just over-complicate current established definitions.

The animation has neither 2*x – 1 = 239, nor 2*x + 1 = 241, frames.
It has 2*x = 240 frames.

The first frame corresponds to θ = 90 – x = –30 degrees.
The last frame corresponds to θ = 90 + x – 1 = 209 degrees.

Do you subscribe to a-theory of time or b-theory of time?
a-theory = presentism (there is only the present
b-theory = growing block (both the past and present exist) or eternalism (there is past, present and future all existing at the same time)

Indeed the absolute frame of reference is the universe itself.
Whether you think it's conscious or not.
>>
>>16866244
Just the Presentism one. It just makes the most logical sense to me. I think of it like a river where some parts of the water are flowing faster than others, like maybe near the shore is flowing slower than near the middle of the river, but it's all still flowing downstream. The faster middle part of the river isn't flowing into the future faster, it just happens to be moving faster.

At a universe scale, in some regions of space particles are moving faster in some locations relative to others, they're not literally in the future, it's all still happening at the same time. If you could freeze the whole universe at any time like a snapshot then every particle would be captured in that moment. If you then took another snapshot some time later then some particles wouldn't have vanished off into the future, they're still there, they were just moving faster so had more interactions etc.
>>
>>16866309
i agree.
>>
>>16866244
One step further to 4D eternalism.
All possible pasts presents and futures all exist at all times.

Get on my fucking level.
>>
>>16866244
present simply doesn't exist at all in relativity (since it changes with the observer even if two observers are at the same location but move with respect to each other).

How can we be expected to deal with men (primarily white men) who feel entitled to having sex and a female house slave despite having a small penis? I have here a peer reviewed article from an academic journal that breaks down each and every single undue entitlement these small-dicked white guys think they're supposed to have, and I never realized how bad white dudes' psychosis actually is. This was an eye-opening read for me, and made me realize that the line between a dicklette and an incel (a known terrorist sub-group of the Western world's population) is way too fine to consider separate from each other. Is there a way to put small-dicked (smaller than 18cm x 13cm) dudes into re-education (with possible chemical castration) camps so they don't commit a bombing just because they're biological failures?

That's a recent phenomena that only started after female contraception amd feminism came about. The elites traditionally had a lot of children and put great stock in their legacies and families. Sure, you have the occassional family that has no male heirs or a line that died out, but these things happened to peasant families too. We just didn't hear about it because that's how historical records work. The rich elites were the ones with better food and more access to healthcare in times where socially acceptable sex was gatekept by marriage and contraception wasn't around. Everyone bred, the elites managed to rear more children to adulthood.

That could be due to our upright walk. That repositions our hips and makes the womans glutes and thighs bigger in relation to the rest of the body. Dicksize could also have been selected for not by female preference but by intermale competition back when monogamy wasn't around yet. It could also be true that dicksize correlates with another trait that is actually being selected for, such as high-t aggression and strength.
>>
It's possible to do eugenics that is not pseudo-science, like selective breeding of livestock. The reason eugenics on humans is always pseudo-science is because there's always an underlying political motive for selection, then they'll just work backwards from the result they need to get (only the most politically powerful race gets to breed) and just make up any rules or data to allow them to justify their pre-made decisions.
Hypothetically, it's perfectly possible to do selective breeding on humans based on logic and data. But it has never happened before, and it probably never will happen, because it is ALWAYS going to get coopted by political pressure.
