I'm just a czech trying to find his place in the federated web.

Matrix: @takom:matrix.org
@snacks What did I do? I've made an conscious effort to keep epic gamer moments to minimum.

Is it about the Garfield ethnostate thing I posted? Because I'm not willing to abandon that ideal.

@mono >bed sheets engineered to meet men's sleep needs

How does it prevent women from stealing all of them?

Otherwise this doesn't solve the big issue at all.

@mewmew @kaikatsu nicotine should definitely be regulated, I mean, I thought it was. It's a really addictive chemical. It's not like you *have* to use nicotin in your vape.

@kaikatsu @mewmew I don't know why they ever used diacetyl when it was known to cause health issues to begin with. I have heard it was popcorn lung from diacetyl, but I'll try to find out about the cases you mention.

@kaikatsu @mewmew The popcorn lung was caused by the extract chemical causing popcorn lung that some psychos put into vape juice. It's nothing fucking new but god does it scare the boomer

@lain I hope you're having a nice evening!
Would you like to hear about Lisp?

Can I put lisp into your project?

@snacks @lain But I mean, Elixir is a flavor of Erlang.

I was kinda joking but I love LFE so much.

@toast @dyske you haven't actually brought anything to the table asides from "here are the studies I don't like" How is that making any points?

I conceded that focus and discipline are more important than miniscule IQ differences, then you just made it bizzare lol.

I do believe you have no points to make.

@dyske @toast I just adressed this and can't be assed to repeat it. If it's still not clear, go complain to people who are professionals in the field, since your personal grudge against a scale they developed really isn't my problem.

@toast @dyske Pattern recognition "is" intelligence. Recognising patterns in things is what allows primates to use tools, adapt to situations, how quickly you may understand complex problems. I merely conceded that for a future of a person there are more important things than minor IQ differences, such as focus.

Hopefully you don't take it as a personal attack if I tell you I'm going to trust decades of cognitive research over your grudge towards the IQ scale.

@toast @dyske IQ score ranges (from DSM-IV):

Mild mental retardation: IQ 50–55 to 70; children require mild support; formally called "Educable Mentally Retarded".

It's not funny if I have to explain it :T

@toast @dyske I don't really talk about my IQ tests unless its relevant

One of those articles though mentions "verbal IQ". Which does seem like snake oil.

@pony it's your fault for going to Warszawa.

Trains are nice though. I like trains. The other time I took a train from Uherské Hradiště to Prague during winter and had a great time.

@toast @dyske I understand that mensa's claim was pretty dumb and I wasn't aware of it, that much I didn't deny. Idk if you really need to show me any papers, I just said it was about measuring pattern recognition by giving people patterns to recognise. Doesn't get much more objective and rooted in data.

@toast @dyske Yeah okay that sounds like admittedly really stupid wording.

When I got tested though I was told that I shouldn't rely on it (as a metric of learning capacity) by just about everyone including their employees.

Something I'm really feeling now because my attention span is shit.

Again, it measures pattern recognition, by giving people patterns to recognise. I don't find that very complicated nor snakeoil. Future success? Not so much.
