the blog post shows this argument is false.
the graphs with made up data? when you look at actual data, all his claims are false.
but all his specific arguments are completely false - see the linked blog post!
he examines specific claims made by Taleb in detail and shows them to be completely wrong in every case. that can be reasonably described as addressing the substance of his arguments. can you identify any specific…
but it does scale beyond 80 points. why ignore all the available evidence and trust instead the Taleb's evidence free assumptions?
it is all unfounded speculation based on mathematica simulations and his own assertions. there is no empirical support for his arguments.
IQ predicts more than just income. It has incremental value for predicting scientific publications, academic achievement, patents etc even within the top percentile. http://adamlgreen.com/smpy/ there is also no evidence…
you keep claiming that there is some threshold above which it does not predict anything even though this contradicts all available evidence. like taleb your beliefs are based on nothing more than unfounded speculation.
this article is extremely weird. juul is doing exactly what you would expect it to do if the product was completely safe. what is wrong with marketing your own safe product? the article refers to "mounting evidence of…
The complexity of how biological mechanisms work does not change basic facts about genetics. There isn't any conflict between the two. Your second point is not true for complex polygenic traits like height. Height is…
Genes do explain much of the variation between people for many characteristics. You can think of them as initial character stats that are then modified by environmental factors and random noise.
