How does it *feel* to be very high/low IQ?
1704712169447192
I'm most likely a midwit, maybe the king of midwits at best. I often wonder, seeing how some people struggle with simple tasks, or other people crushing the tasks which I consider hard; how does it feel to have an IQ over 140 or under 70?
Do those types understand that they are indeed dumb or extremely gifted? Can high IQs instantly spot other geniuses? How does it affect the internal monologue and their average day?

Top DEI STEM Scholar FABRICATED research
Screenshot_20240322-063239
There was a thread about this earlier, but for some reason the jannies deleted it.

Apparently, it has be discovered that one of the top stem education scholars in the world, Stanford professor Jo Boaler, has actually been manipulating and fabricating her research for years. This is a major problem because she is literally one of the top scholar in her field and she is literally at the forefront of neoliberal DEI initiatives and her work is currently being used to completely redesigned the entire grade school stem education system in the state of California. She advocates for standardizing education, eliminating advanced STEM courses and electives, eliminating magnet programs and forms of self-directed and personalized education, and standardizing all curriculum and course requirements. She wants ALL public school students (but NOT private schools) to be taught the same material, in the same classes, using the same textbooks, and she wants to discourage independent study or exploration of other topics until students reach the university level.

The rationale for this is that people like Jo Boaler want all children to be on the same page, and they don't want some children having an unfair advantage, and that also want to discourage the misconception that education is about intellectual exploration or "doing your own research". Instead, the goal of education should be to cultivate "informed citizens" who know to seek out and rely on authoritative sources.

Its funny, because 20 years ago standardizing education and eliminating electives and magnet schools and advanced STEM class was considered a conservative policy. At the time it was called No Child Left Behind and it was a policy of the Bush administration. Today it's the neoliberal left pushing for the standardization of education instead.

How come there was less ice in the arctic ocean 6000 years ago when the atmosphere was less than 0.03% CO2 than there is now with an atmosphere of over 0.04% CO2?
Why wasn't it colder when there was less CO2 in the atmosphere?
If CO2 is really as powerful a greenhouse gas as science says it is then it seems like it should have been a lot colder with something like 40% less CO2 in the atmosphere.

previous thread >>16072199

if you love stats, weird numbers and counterintutive science, this is your general. Because one of the things with statistics is that nothing ever seems to be what it tries to show you on a first glance or glimpse. Doesn't matter if you are a seasoned professional, NEET or some disgruntled grad student. All are welcome.

Some people may not like it if you try to make them do your homework, others won't care and will just help you. Let's discuss theories together, ask questions and try to meme a little about this field.

in the previous thread we discussed why Julia has promise but is not delivering. How some people still use Matlab but hate it.

So, grab your favorite statistical software, dust off your textbooks, and join me in this exciting journey through the world of /psg/ - Probability and Statistics General! Let's embark on this adventure together and unravel the mysteries of data one statistical concept at a time.

Academics are literal hivemind charlatan scammers. This has been known by many already, but now there's hard evidence to prove it. So-called "experts" are cheaters and liars just like the average student who cheats on his or her exams. And the evidence focuses on STEM papers specifically, including medicine, and not what are considered bullshit majors where of course everyone is expected to be a bullshitter and plagiarizer.

Look at this shit. How is science different from voodoo priests saying voodoo is proven true because another voodoo priest said so?

They also believe they’re at the end of history at any given moment, again because of midwitism.

Climate scientist Stephen Schneider of NOAA in the October 1989 issue of Discover magazine admitted that climate scientists intentionally mislead the public about global warming as a means of forwarding their political goals:

>Stephen Schneider of the National Center for Atmospheric Research described the scientists’ dilemma this way:
>“On the one hand, as scientists, we are ethically bound to the scientific method, in effect promising to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but—which means that we must include all the doubts, the caveats, the ifs, ands, and buts. On the other hand, we are not just scientists but human beings as well.

>And like most people we’d like to see the world a better place, which in this context translates into our working to reduce the risk of potentially disastrous climatic change. To do that we need to get some broad-based support, to capture the public’s imagination. That, of course, entails getting loads of media coverage. So we have to offer up scary scenarios, make simplified, dramatic statements, and make little mention of any doubts we might have. This ‘double ethical bind’ we frequently find ourselves in cannot be solved by any formula. Each of us has to decide what the right balance is between being effective and being honest.”

There's No Radiative Greenhouse Effect
2law
It's pretty self evident. How did this garbage theory ever gain traction. Oh yeah, I know, DEI and Jews.
Literally 2 generations of scientists laughed Arrhenius's theory out of the academy.

Also, the premise of greenhouse effect contradicts science. "Height of emissions rises against density so temperature increases" is dumb. It assumes
1) Density gradient exists 'cuz (some idiots claim gravity reduces over height so "less force" holds air down, hence density)
2) The atmosphere would be cold without greenhouse gas (GHG)
3) GHG because of density lapse creates a temperature lapse
4) Pressure lapse results
Retarded

It's:
1) Gravity+atmospheric mass creates a force. Surface pressure equals this force and is fixed.
2) Pressure lapse rate is a given, gas laws
3) Add energy, and temperature increases.
4) Temperature along a pressure lapse leads to kinetic work against gravity.
5) Temperature and mass climb up the pressure gradient
6) Density lapse results.

Higher temps means higher top of troposphere and a distribution of density upward. There is no height of emissions rising against density, that's dumb.
Work against gravity is potential energy. Doesn't emit. Falls back down and compresses gas as work. Higher temperatures which emit more.
Thus surface temps are hotter than blackbody average, higher temps are colder.
Expresses as convection cells.

There. Is. No. Radiative. Greenhouse. Effect.

Construction and validation of a scale for assessing critical social justice attitudes
https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/sjop.13018
>DISCUSSION
>The studies also assessed how having critical social justice attitudes relates to well-being variables. Many authors have previously linked critical social justice attitudes to poorer mental well-being in their work implicitly, but have not studied them directly (e.g., Lukianoff & Haidt, 2018). In our samples (Study 1 and Study 2), having high CSJAS (critical social justice attitude scale) scores was linked to anxiety, depression, and a lack of happiness. However, Study 2 indicated that this lower level of mental well-being was mostly associated with being on the political left and not specifically with having a high CSJAS score. The association between lower mental health and supporting the political left is in line with what other studies have found prior to this one (Bernardi, 2021; Gimbrone et al., 2022).

Mass is a very unique thing because its not a preserved quantity like energy, charge, linear momentum or anything else. There is no quantum operator for mass, it is just a state that energy can exist in, though not the only way for energy to exist in.
You may have heard a hoax about how the higgs boson creates mass, thats just some pop-sci slop, the higgs boson just explains why some elementary particles have a particular mass in a very specific context of electroweak interactions, it doesnt explain "why" mass is even a thing.
As far as its currently understood, mass is just a number written in an equation. Particles could also exist with this number being zero, no one knows why it isnt.

he said EV (el Vehicle) pollutes 1850 times more while driving 1000 miles than what happens if you drive 1000 miles with gasoline

tire wear was calculated into the equation

he noted that the tires of EVs, due to their added weight, will also emit more microplastics into the air

particle pollution from EVs can also increase the risk of health problems,

Good news everyone, Arctic ice accumulation is above average for this time of year compared to the average for this century so far.

NOAA now asserts that global warming is fake news
NOAA xweet
NOAA admits that CO2 is not a greenhouse gas and has no effect on the climate. According to NOAA:
>The amount of CO2 in the atmosphere today is comparable to around
>4.3 million years ago, when sea level was about 75 ft higher than today,
>the average temp was 7 degrees F higher than in pre-industrial times, &
>large forests occupied areas of the Arctic that are now tundra.
Which is to say that even though CO2 is the same now as it was 4.3 million years ago, the climate today is far, far different and much colder than it was 4.3 million years ago and this is because atmospheric CO2 levels have no effect or undetectably little effect on the Earth's climate. Its also worth noting that atmospheric CO2 levels have been substantially above where they have been in the recent past for over 100 years now and there has been no substantial change in the climate during that time, which only further proves NOAA's assertion that CO2 doesn't affect the Earth's climate and that CO2 is not a meaningful greenhouse gas.

Late cherry blossoms proves global warming is fake
kaio harumafuji baruto
Cherry blossoms bloom in Tokyo, 15 days later than last year, 5 days later than average

https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2024/03/29/japan/society/cherry-blossoms-bloom-tokyo/

Cherry blossoms finally burst into bloom in Tokyo on Friday after heavy rain in the morning, marking the latest blooming in over a decade.
The declaration of the blooming made by the Meteorological Agency came 15 days later than last year and five days later than in an average year. Private forecasters had also expected this year's bloom to come much earlier.

Friday’s blooming is the latest in Tokyo since 2012, when cherry blossoms were declared to have blossomed on March 31, according to the agency.

Cherry blossom forecasting is big business in Japan. As early as in January, companies start to issue forecasts for when cherry blossoms will first bloom and reach their peak.

The weather agency, which began forecasting the annual bloom in 1955, sets a government standard for observing cherry blossom trees. For consistency, the meteorological agency only uses data gathered from the Somei-Yoshino variety, which produces pale pink blossoms.

S•ybean Oil Found To Alter Genes In Brain
soyaurs
Dysregulation of Hypothalamic Gene Expression and the Oxytocinergic System by S•ybean Oil Diets in Male Mice
https://academic.oup.com/endo/article/161/2/bqz044/5698148
>S•ybean Oil Might Be Altering Our Genetic Material And Leading To Diabetes And Obesity

A lot of people out there are trying to eat right, to give their body the fuel it needs, and to be as healthy as we can while we’re doing it.

That said, the advice and ramifications of what we put in our bodies seems to change all of the time – and now, something you probably eat has been proven to alter our actual genes.

The oils we use in foods and for frying, among other things, have changed quickly over the past couple of decades. Where canola or vegetable oil might once have reigned supreme, now peanut and s•ybean oil have taken the lead as “healthier” options.

When it comes to s•ybean oil, though, researchers are sounding the alarm.

Studies are starting to show that the rise in its use has coincided with a rise in metabolic conditions like diabetes, insulin resistance, and obesity.

This latest study shows that it even causes genetic changes in the brain.

Studies with mice have shown mice who consume s•ybean oil are more likely to develop metabolic conditions than those fed something else, like coconut oil.

Researchers posited that the linoleic acid is to blame.

North American grey squirrels have taken over England and wiped out the native red squirrel population. This demonstrates that the two populations can't live side by side and that if greys are permitted to encroach the reds will eventually be eliminated.
The greys now have a toehold in mainland Europe and are rapidly expanding their territory at the expense of the reds.
Should grey squirrels be holocausted in Europe in order to preserve the native red squirrel population?
Should the greys be exterminated in England in order to return the reds to their natural and rightful homeland?

Autism diagnoses for adults are bullshit, anyone can get one if they want to feel special. The diagnosis is based on questionnaires, interviews and observation of behavior. All of that is extremely easy to cheat especially if you aren't actually autistic and just sufficiently informed on the disorder so you know what they expect to see and hear from you. Many procedures to detect autism are based on scientifically obsolete psychological theories and made with children in mind and it's not realistically possible to make a non-retarded adult behave completely naturally in them. On top of that, the psychologists are usually women with very limited scientific understanding of the disorder who do sloppy work like most women and base decisions on sympathy with the client. Do NOT trust any autism diagnosis made in adult age. If you weren't diagnosed as a child then whatever autism you may have is functionally irrelevant and doesn't excuse your failures.

They literally made up the unfalsifiable inflaton field as additional parameter to "fix" the model for it to match observations. There isn't a way to test this inflaton field hypothesis.
There is no valid reason we should apply the our current flawed model of the universe backward in time to reach the big bang either, except it's the only model we know of.
This creationist theory being the contemporary concensus was because pedo Hawking popularized it and it was then shilled by the MSM because muh disabled genius scientist.
