Explanation: Humans can use tools, and interestingly, suicide generally requires the use of tools, as well as the ability to forecast outcomes. https://twitter.com/DegenRolf/status/1201809402065502208

So whenever generalizing about genders (which is easy) ask what trade-off nature has been made between the genders.Women generalize at low-risk, time, men specialize at high risk,speed. Men are disposable,and about 1/3 desirable.Women are not disposable and about 1/3 undesirable.

Brains are expensive organs (11x muscle). There are only so many degrees of freedom in dividing the labor given our reproductive responsibilities. Women have almost no emotional agency, but task agency an empathic sensitivity. Men have emotional agency, and threat agency.

False conclusion which (as usual) conflates task performance with reaction, threat, social, and political performance. Women can cook, weave & work endlessly, especially if chatting. Compare with gorillas, chimps and human males when children threatened. Costs:M-Fast vs F-Slow. https://twitter.com/DegenRolf/status/1201922235394646016

Explanation. Small sample. Not meaningful. Merely conforms to existing evidence, that as in all things the outlying 1-3% are disproportionately harmful. (And why europeans hung 1% of the population per year resulting in a high trust society – that we have rapidly reversed.) https://twitter.com/DegenRolf/status/1202087283538714624

Explanation: IQ is an ~measure of demonstrated (g) (general performance of the full set of brain regions).So it’s not correct to say that intelligence (g) increases but that DEMONSTRATED intelligence (gD) increases.Yet another problem of non-operational language in soft sciences. https://twitter.com/DegenRolf/status/1202108778184876032

Explanation: Memory organized in Hippocampal region, replayed at cost of generalization, b/c all experience and memory reorganizes (re-weights) existing relations, and replay during sleep (storing into long term memory) generalizes all experiences by broadening auto-association. https://twitter.com/DegenRolf/status/1202148342697992193

And yes, east asians took it too far. and yes africans took it the other direction (had to because of disease gradient) and yes, cold winters and animal husbandry take personality traits the right direction. So domestication= pro-sociality (patience), not pacification (weakness).

@PowerNihilism Thanks. Although I want to take the opportunity to correct the general thought. Scientifically, agency (not acting like fking impulsive animals) is produced by neoteny (delaying development giving time for self control (conscientiousness) and therefore low(long) time preference.

@curtdoolittle “Domestication is the process by which an organism becomes dependent upon another for its survival. It is the way in which one is made another’s “pet”.
See Our article https://t.co/SPYSG2OIjH
P.s Keep up the fine work. We love what you do.

Agency. Western civlization: the industrialization of the production of agency rather than submission, tolerance, or acquiescence.

@curtdoolittle I’d be interested in what ye mean by “domestication”?
