Theo Von posed the most beautifully vulnerable testimony to Roman 7. “Why is it so easy to do the things I don’t want to do, but a struggle to be who I want to be?” This is the nature of being human.

@HDaniels1959 @ihtesham2005 Failing is the wrong word to use. All apologies. I have seen one of these I.Q. Test and know I won’t meet the criteria that they’re seeking. Whatever that is. However everything I said on my original statement stands. Thank you for your added information.

@beerriv @ihtesham2005 There's no such thing as "failing an I.Q. test". Your score is just your score. It being a high or low score is relative to your fellow test-takers. Those who do better than most test-takers have an easier time solving life's cognitive tests, as every such test is an I.Q. test.

A Stanford psychologist spent 35 years trying to prove that high IQ produced genius. He selected 1,528 of the smartest children in California and tracked them for the rest of their lives. Not one of them won a Nobel Prize. Two of the boys he had rejected from the study won the Nobel Prize in Physics. The trait he had built his entire career on did not predict the thing he thought it predicted. His name was Lewis Terman. The study is one of the most honest accidents in modern psychology. In 1921, Terman was the most famous psychologist in America. He had translated and adapted the original French intelligence test into the version that would dominate American schools for the next 50 years. He called it the 'Stanford-Binet'. He believed, with the certainty of a man who had built a career on a single idea, that intelligence was the master variable behind every form of human achievement. The doctors, the inventors, the senators, the artists, the great writers and great scientists. All of them, in his model, were sitting at the top end of the same bell curve. If you could find the children with the highest scores, you could predict the future leaders of the country. So he set out to prove it. He sent his research team into California schools and screened roughly 168,000 children. He had teachers nominate their brightest pupils. He gave the nominees the Stanford-Binet. He kept the ones who scored 135 or higher, which placed them in roughly the top one percent of the population. The final sample was 1,528 children, average age 11. They had a name in his lab notebooks within a year. Termites. He planned to follow them for the rest of their lives. He died in 1956 having tracked them for 35 years. Stanford kept the study going. The last surviving Termites were tracked until the 2000s. The data set is one of the longest continuous psychological studies in human history. Here is what the data showed. The Termites did well. They went to college at higher rates than their peers. They earned more money. They became professors and engineers and lawyers and physicians at higher rates than the general population. Terman was not entirely wrong. High IQ is correlated with conventional success. The correlation is real and the effect size is meaningful. But that was not what he had set out to prove. He had set out to prove that high IQ produces genius. The kind of genius that wins Nobel Prizes, writes great novels, founds new fields, and reshapes the technological direction of the world. And on that specific question, the dataset turned on him. None of the 1,528 Termites won a Nobel Prize. None of them won a Pulitzer. None of them became world-class musicians. None of them produced a single piece of work that historians of science or art still talk about. They were accomplished. They were comfortable. They were not, in any sense Terman would have recognized in his original ambition, geniuses. The detail that haunts the study is what happened to the children he rejected. In the screening phase, his team had tested two boys named William Shockley and Luis Alvarez. Both scored below the cutoff. Both were sent home. Shockley went on to co-invent the transistor and win the 1956 Nobel Prize in Physics, the same year Terman died. He founded the company that seeded the entire ecosystem we now call Silicon Valley. Alvarez won the 1968 Nobel Prize in Physics for his work on subatomic particles, and later proposed the asteroid impact theory of dinosaur extinction that turned out to be correct, too. Two of the most consequential American physicists of the 20th century had been measured by Terman's own instrument and judged not gifted enough to be worth tracking. There is an important caveat here that the more honest critics have raised in recent years. A 2020 simulation study from researchers at Utah Valley University showed that even with a perfect IQ test, the base rate of Nobel Prizes is so vanishingly low that Terman would have been statistically unlikely to catch a future laureate in any sample of his size, no matter where he set the cutoff. The Shockley and Alvarez story is dramatic but it does not, on its own, prove that IQ does not matter. It proves that rare outcomes are hard to predict from any single variable, including a very good one. That caveat is real. It is also not the most important thing the study showed. The most important thing the study showed is what Terman himself eventually admitted, late in his career, in a quieter voice than he had used for the previous three decades. He wrote that the relationship between intelligence and achievement was, in his words, far from perfect. Within the Termite sample itself, the highest-IQ children did not become the most accomplished adults. The variation in outcomes inside the group of geniuses was enormous, and IQ explained almost none of it. Some of the Termites had unremarkable careers. Some of the Termites had remarkable ones. The thing that distinguished the two groups was not the score he had used to select them. What distinguished them, when researchers eventually analyzed the data more carefully, was a cluster of traits Terman had not been measuring. Persistence. Curiosity. Health. Stable family circumstances. The willingness to keep going when a project stopped being interesting and started being hard. Most of the Termites who went on to do meaningful work were not the ones with the highest scores. They were the ones who had spent decades grinding on a single problem. The lesson is the part that should change how anyone reading this thinks about talent. The trait you select for is the trait you optimize for. If you measure children on a test of pattern recognition and verbal recall, you will find children who are good at pattern recognition and verbal recall. You will not find the children who will spend 30 years thinking about a single equation. You will not find the children who will quietly read the same difficult book six times. You will not find the children whose curiosity is wider than their working memory. Those traits do not show up on the test you are running, which means they do not show up in the dataset you build. Terman spent his life trying to find genius and ended up proving that he had been measuring the wrong thing all along. The kids he rejected were not stupider than the kids he kept. They were running a different program underneath, and his instrument could not see it. The trait you can measure is almost never the trait that actually matters. Most people building careers, hiring teams, and raising children are still selecting for the version of the trait that fits on a test.

Female octopuses have been seen throwing rocks and other objects at annoying males that refuse to leave them alone. Researchers observing them in the wild noticed the females aiming the objects to push the males away. Scientists believe this surprising behavior shows just how intelligent, aware, and expressive octopuses really are.

In 1997, a Japanese man stopped speaking to his wife after an argument and stayed silent for 20 years. Despite living in the same house and raising three children together, he refused to talk to her, communicating only through nods and gestures. In 2017, after their son contacted a TV show to help reunite them, the husband finally apologized in a public meeting arranged at a park ending two decades of silence.

How to remedy this, you can listen to vinyls in a receiver speakers, play some singing bowls and tuning forks a couple of times a day also, believe it or not… house music. Brings in a frequency (I’m not knowledgeable with numbers however I see how children respond to it) that pulsates the pineal gland. If you play house music around children, pay attention to how they respond.

📢Rebelión en la Granja🚨
NUEVA YORK: CRÓNICA DE UNA MUERTE ANUNCIADA 🚨🇺🇸 Goldman Sachs huye de Nueva York y deja en pánico al alcalde socialista Mamdani. El alcalde de Nueva York enfrenta un duro golpe tras confirmarse que Goldman Sachs, uno de los gigantes históricos de Wall Street, está obligando a cientos de sus gerentes y empleados a elegir entre mudarse a Dallas, Texas, o Salt Lake City, o abandonar la empresa por completo, debido a los insostenibles costos operativos provocados por los aumentos de impuestos y regulaciones impulsados por su administración socialista. El éxodo masivo de la icónica firma hacia estados más amigables con los negocios marca el inicio de un colapso económico anunciado en la Gran Manzana.

This is a good reenactment of it. However this is one of the first clues to know your friend is jealous of you. However, if you’re at a party and you see your friend is visible drunk and a man is talking to her, that’s your cue to rally her and you up out of there. That’s not jealousy, that’s protective mode.

I love all animals however corvids hold a special place in my heart. They are indeed tricksters. They recognize faces so don’t dare try to disrupt their peace. If they’ve seen you for a while and you interact with them by just saying hi, they’ll give you gifts. They protect too because I’ve had crows follow me home a few times. Such golden treasures.

In the 1970s they ran an experiment that still blows minds today. They took four windowless 1st-grade classrooms, swapped the harsh flickering fluorescent lights for full-spectrum bulbs that mimic real daylight… and filmed what happened next. The difference is shocking: hyperactive, off-the-wall kids suddenly calm down, sit still, and focus like never before. The control classrooms under standard lights? Chaos as usual. This is real 1970s footage from Dr. John Ott’s groundbreaking work (1976, Sarasota, FL). His time-lapse cameras caught something schools still ignore: artificial light spectrum and flicker can literally rewire developing brains.

Honestly, you’d want to be in a school this strict. Then other children bringing in toy water guns then they bring in toy guns that look realistic. There’s levels to this sht. I understand that their son has disabilities however don’t bring it to school. If hes having issues with that, keep him home. This is a mental game that’s going on.

8 year old boy with autism is suspended from school in Georgia for having this little LEGO gun School administrators classified it as a “weapon” under the district’s Code of Conduct and he was given a 3-day suspension The boy’s mom and other parents say this is ridiculously strict to suspend a boy with disabilities over a tiny LEGO gun that poses no harm to anyway Official response from the school “The Henry County Board of Education’s Code of Conduct defines various levels of infractions, and school administrators consult these definitions in using their discretion to determine student consequences. In addition to consequences based on the level of violation, multiple violations during a school year could result in more severe consequences.” There are better things our schools could be focusing on than this

In 1991, Chicago music teacher Michael Corke, 40, was at the peak of his life when he suddenly lost the ability to sleep, completely. No medication or even induced coma worked. His brain waves remained stuck in an awake state. Six months later… he died of total exhaustion, just before his 42nd birthday. His body had aged dramatically. The cause? Fatal Familial Insomnia - an ultra-rare disease that destroys the part of the brain controlling sleep. 100% fatal with no cure. A living hell with no escape.

Introspection is important to the psyche. We want to know why certain things trigger us and we would like to know how to smooth over the hump. If you ignore it, that makes it worse and it bubbles up in other areas in your life. It’s a mental thing. Just because you shoved it in the back of your mind, doesn’t mean it’s not affecting you.

Dana White on why he doesn’t believe in introspection: “If you just sit around and talk about your fucking problems all the time it actually makes it worse. I never take in any negativity. I literally block it out. I block all the noise out. Like these guys who report on what we're doing that have no clue on what we're doing? Why would I want to hear anything they have to say? They're zeroes. They've literally never done anything in their life, especially in this business. Why would I listen to anything that they have to say?” CC @pmarca
