I've always wondered, we know that testosterone levels have an effect on people's behavior, preferences, and disposition. We know that men and women have, on average, different levels of testosterone. Yet we know that…
>Statistics have a well-known liberal bias. Especially FBI crime statistics.
Who’s an example?
I don’t think it’s remotely controversial that most violence is committed by young men. Most people in the world and in history would laugh at me for stating this, it’s so obvious.
How can it be freedom? They don’t have a living wage, healthcare, education, etc- none of the things we consider necessary to be free.
What do you think that Trump did, and why?
I live in a van where my total expenses amount to $100/month; I quit my job the day I had accumulated enough savings to sustain this lifestyle indefinitely. The amount of money that is worth giving up 5/7ths of your…
I understand the argument that, once free from work, a number of people will voluntarily choose to work as physicists or playwrights or mathematicians. What I haven’t understood, though, is why someone would choose to…
It’s vastly different in Western countries. I’ve hooked up with girls from Tinder and have brought girls from parties or bars, but have never been on a date. Most people I (a 22 year old) know are the same way.
Why does trying to get laid make one a dickhead? This is slut-shaming.
Of course, Scandanavian countries have both of those things without being diverse. In some sense, high-quality public services have only been observed in non-diverse countries.
I feel like I got left behind in 2010 when our attitude about Russia was, “Russia? What are you, in the ‘80s? They’re a decrepit machine running on fumes”.
Isn't Finland almost entirely white whereas California is predominantly Hispanic? That seems like an obvious first place to look. It could be the case that the distribution of time-preference, social trust, IQ, or any…
The MTA, like most city's public transportation administration, is predominantly staffed by people of color- the DC metro is a whopping 97%. These serve the dual-role as a jobs program, and as such can't be held to the…
I'm not asking that. I often see the fact that people of color are overrepresented in the prison system presented as an example of their marginalization. If overrepresentation in prison is an example of marginalization,…
Isn't overrepresentation in the prison system an instance of marginalization? I often hear as cited as such regarding people of color.
Southern states are the most predominately black states in the country. Are you sure you want to bring this up?
1. Of course not, I referenced unintelligent wealthy people ("dumb nobility") in my post. 2. 70% of rich families lose their wealth by the second generation, 90% by the third. [A] 3. IQ is a greater predictor of income…
1. No of course not, but if it's a factor at all we'd expect to see the pattern I described. 2. We're talking about social mobility, not the level of inequality.
One thing I've never understood- in a fair society in which people are not artificially limited, wouldn't we expect social mobility to decrease over time as successive generations "sort" themselves into the spots…
"Gender quotas at board level in Europe have done little to boost corporate performance or to help women lower down" Isn't the article saying that they didn't work?
