RT @DuxHispaniii: When thinking about hypothetical political systems you must first answer this question (I think @curtdoolittle said it):…
agreed
I’m sitting near the deputy secretary of education for a local state. I happen to know his wife (his third). She stepped out for a moment, and I started conversation by asking him if he was able to chat or preferred not to. And having overheard that he just flew in, and that he was downing scotch, listened to his itinerary – which gave no clue to his occupation but whatever it was he wasn’t proud of it. Men will tell you their biz if they are.
Just then his wife returned, and I said that I was trying to pry conversation out of him. She replied that ‘He hates people’. 😉 She told me his occupation, and I started laughing and said “I’m so sorry for you.“ 😉 And he lowered his head accepting it as if it was expected. And didn’t disagree. Though admittedly he’s a bit tired. 😉
I can’t imagine having a job where you listen to the complaining of and endless stream of overconfident clueless harpies pursing self interest under cover over moral duty with emotional loading of conviction.
So I wait until they’re about to leave and “Can I ask one more question? What’s the best and worst aspect of your job?” He lit up and said that the best part of my job is the 500,000 kids I have that I love and care for.” He said the exact number, but I didn’t write it down at the time. “The hardest part is that this is adiverse state and every [locality] is very different. So I worry about giving all these kids a choice of achieving the life they want. And our biggest problem is that everyone can’t and doesn’t want to got to college (and something about how the weren’t helping them).”
Now, what I see is a good person, but one that is limited like everyone from producing excellence instead of pleasing students and parent’s fantasies. What I did hear later was the need to focus too much on their state of mind. What I didn’t get was any sense of the children developing responsibility and duty and putting in the work necessary to compete in the modern economy. An economy which he later stated, had a high cost of living vs the income of a lot of the student’s families.
Unless we are more demanding, we are not going to produce a competent generation, and we will continue our demographic decline.
Love you all.
Cheers
Curt

This is correct. The aristocra…
PEOPLE CAN BE TRAINED
–“For years and years, I rehabilitated dogs that were better put down. I worked with dogs because people baffled me – they had a choice and chose badly. But I felt bad for dogs – they had no choice in the matter. So despite having a choice, people think they’re out there making choices – and measurably, they’re not. They’re just untrained. They need training just like dogs. If anything, the internet has shown how quickly people can be trained.– @ThruTheHayes
RE: ~”IQ ISN”T A PHYSICAL MEASURE”~
(short explanation of what causes IQ differences)
That’s in correct. Neural conductivity follows the same mathematical law as wires and undersea cables, where the law was first discovered. So neural response time is precisely what we are measuring.
The rest is determined by the organization of connectivity as neural stem cells migrate into position, and various of thirty or so molecules bait the tips of each cell into different regions of the brain, until they recieve enough impulse to form local inter-neuronal connectivity and begin ‘computing’ so to speak. Then finally the overall size of the brain (size matters), grey vs white matter density, and the environment that consists of the biochemistry of your brain that feeds the neurons, and the many developmental ‘errors’ that creep in due to accumulated genetic load (defects), and one evolutoinary difference Neoteny.
The uncomfortable truth that the scientific community suppresses out of self interest in survival is that human differences are due largely to on direction of evolution: neotenic selection, which trades aggression (impulse) for agency (consideration) necessary for social cooperation in increasingly scarce climates. Ergo the reason for performance differences between the four primary races is substantial, manifesting as difference in sizes of the classes, where social and economic class reflect the ability to posses the traits and intelligence to manage self regulation and therefore responsibility, because that is what humans have selected for: responsibility via neoteny.
Hence we observe IQ and neotenic differences by the four speciation events (Races): 1SD African to South Eurasion, 1SD South Eurasian To European and East Asian. And NW Europeans (north sea) have already lost 1SD from around 115 in early modernity to 100-102 today due to asymmetric reproduction. East asians are losing – particularly the Chinese, and Ashkenazim are losing too. Reason? Urbanization. Cities are IQ sinks because of the cost of children for high investment parents, and the cost of education, and women delaying reproduction for education and employement, versus the irrelevance of the cost of children for low investment parents.
So we attempt to judge the QUALITY of the organization of your brain with IQ tests by examining multiple capabilities – specifically among the feminine verbal empathizing vs masculine spatial systematizing division, because all skills roughly increase and decrease in parallel along whatever that sex ratio consist of, thus determining your neural performance, plasticity, and adaptability in time.

Hardly. No need.

Low trust – this is the funndamental source of all RU issues, and only fixed by ROL and Transparency.
Rule of Law not applied or respected.
Weak constitution insufficently articulated.
FSB power.
Agreed. Loved working with them. 🙁
