an hackernews:

a high correlation between intelligence and IQ

motherfuckers out here acting like “intelligence” is sufficiently well-defined that a correlation between it and anything else can be computed

intelligence can be reasonably defined as “knowledge and skills to be successful in life, i.e. have higher-than-average income”

That would be the Lexus-and-the-Olive-Tree definition, like the one by which McDonald’s burgers are the best cuisine

ooh can I play? A species’ or race’s intelligence can be reasonably defined by how rapidly it extracts resources from the surrounding area.

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

AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from the TREACLES. (Though TechTakes may be more suitable.)

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.]
