[update 2022-02-09: turns out the only flaw in my logic was thinking it was flawed; it appeared flawed but only because it was so subtle]
Many people do not understand why, if IQ is so genetic, the children of high IQ parents, regress to the mean. In fact, I was once told by a commenter on Lion’s blog that if IQ were 100% genetic, no regression to the mean would occur. His logic was we inherit 100% of our genes from our parents, so we should have the exact same genetic IQ as our parents.
But there also might be gene-gene interactions, so some genes might only boost IQ when they’re combined with other genes, so you might inherit only one of these genes from a parent, but without the other, it’s useless.

I had a look online about the number of immigrants in Europe and I couldn’t believe it. In UK, France, Germany and so on about 20% of the population is foreign! No wonder wages have not moved in 30 years. No wonder housing is a problem etc etc.
The European elites are replacing their people haha. Its crazy.
With america and canada you can kind of accept that they are a land of immigrants but old europe is taking on a mass migration too.
to an extent…
there are TWO phenomena.
both are real, but shoe doesn’t appreciate or want to admit the reality of the second.
1. talking, writing accomplishes nothing….except…*
2. solving rubic’s cube in 1s accomplishes nothing.
*contra marx labor is stupid unless it’s not.
1. people can work very hard at something and accomplish nothing.
2. people can work very hard at nothing and accomplish something (which is actually nothing).
3. the VIQ and the PIQ have to come together in order to…
do something worth doing.
my wife has an American friend who is an ophtalmologist and optometrist, as the question of my sight is a recurring subject, she did test me and I have 20/7 vision (in France they told me 18/10, probably the same) and I have tetrachromacy meaning I see 100M colours instead of 1M.
Maybe not having memories nor imagination helped my brain do other stuff instead !
i’ve seen horrors, horrors that you’ve seen.
the US still the country everyone wants to be a shining city on a hill but in reality everyone hates for good reason.
1. 3d most populous country.
2. multiethnic.
3. rich.
it’s the country everyone wishes could succeed but which has been failing into promotions since europe blew itself up in 1914.
unfortunately i think what was great about america was its WASPs…who haven’t held the commanding heights for at least 50 years.
if black americans peformed like asian americans on tests…
the whole race hustle would fall like a house of cards.
the big message of the bill of rights and the big contribution of americastan to political thought is…
there are some powers no one should ever have…
EVER!
however charismatic.
however saintly.
EVER!
there are people who are what my grandfather called “facile”.
they can talk and talk and talk…
and use lots of “cue words”.
is shoe scammed by these losers?
these folks do NOT have high VIQ.
Well well. It’s been a long time since I’ve been on the blog, but I’m not surprised it’s the same way when I last saw it.
Does Pumpkim still believe Oprah is the smartest person on planet Earth? That’s because she’s a billionaire, wow, what a great success. Pumpkim needs to meet Brazilian ultra-billionaires, dumb as a door.
Does Pumpkim still believe that he is a very, very smart blogger? Even if you don’t know how to elaborately explain why IQ is not 100% genetic? Be patient.
Never said she was the smartest person in the World. I think her IQ is around 138. Smartest in the World would be around 196.
