if the reports are true and accurate, its a very big deal, that directly challenges our current understating of reality. . But 90% of the cia is a big grift to enrich the officers, and its more likely that this falles under that 90% other, more reliable sources have reached similar results tho. read dean radin

Any ethnic minorities here?
How to cope with being vastly higher IQ and having elite STem education, earning more and having more money and a better standard of living and higher social status than whites, but whites assuming that you're lower than them until they realise your powerlevel.
Is there an obvious way to display 140iq so people don't have to assume you're 80\ first until they ask what you do for a living/what you studied.
Example: in a job interview, if they have seen my cv the interviewer will felate me and be submissive, but the desk staff and admin who greet me assume I'm a delivery driver or low status until they realise how far above them I am.

Your little laundry list is a function of work ethic more than IQ. In fact, only a dim or average person would feel to need to start a thread like this.

I recently came across a pretty unique damage (HP) calculation formula in a just as unique and unorthodox RPG, Unlimited SaGa
Strength Damage = 100 x Strength 2 / (Strength 2 + 800) + 4
Skill Damage = 100 x Skill 2 / (Skill 2 + 800) + 4
Rand1 = [0 - (12 x (Max HP - Remaining HP) / Max HP))] uniform probability range
Rand2 = [0 - (12 + 12 x (Max HP - Remaining HP) / Max HP))] uniform probability range
Raw Damage (Bare Handed) = HP Attack Power x (3 + EN Cost) + (Strength Damage x Number of Hits) + (Strength Damage x Growth Rate) x (128 + Skill Damage + Weight) / 256 + Rand1
Raw Damage (Sword, Axe, Staff, Spear) = HP Attack Power x (3 + EN Cost) + (Weapon Power x Number of Hits) + (Strength Damage x Growth Rate) x (128 + Weapon Power) / 256 + Rand2
Raw Damage (Dagger, Bow, Gun) = HP Attack Power x (3 + EN Cost) + (Weapon Power x Number of Hits) + (Skill Damage x Growth Rate) x (128 + Weapon Power) / 256 + Rand2
Final Damage = (Raw Damage x (100 - Defense Power) / 100 - Defense Power) x Combo Percentage
It should be noted that HP acts as a value determining the probability of incuring LP (=Life Points) damage. This is calculated as follows
LP Damage Probability = ((LP attack power x 8 + 20) x (Target Max HP - Target Remaining HP + 1) / Target Max HP x Combo Percentage - LP Defense Power x 5) / 70
Does anyone here know what the point of such extremely detailed damage calculation formulas would be? Having two random variables alone is sort of insane.

I feel like literally anybody that’s considered smart as a child is gonna inevitably hit a wall somewhere at the age of 18 that prevents them to continue to excel in academia purely from their talents
It’s undeniable how often you can find students considered prodigies teaching the age of 18 or graduating hs only to fall apart completely when they’re asked to demonstrate their knowledge and continue deeper and deeper into research. Everyone goes through the post grad filter but few do and the ones that do take years before they truly understand whatever the fuck they’re learning
Anonymous
>>14356885 i think your idea is explained solely by the fact that those students probably were not being pushed or pushing themselves in high school. also not everyone who has good hs grades needs to go into research as you imply. academia is kinda shitty anyways. unless you are a supergenius whos name will be remembered for a century after your death, academia will just feel like wringing yourself to pump out mediocre papers for little pay.

>>14356891 Yeah filters strong
You need to grow a lot more used to the feelings of racing against time and the usage of working ahead and reviewing over current content whenever you can for the sake of sparing yourself misery. It doesn’t get easier after that and you can find reports of students burning themselves out or just straight up offing themselves
For me hearing I wound up with an average of 81% after hs kinda broke me mentally as it felt like all the effort invested into the joint was all for nothing even if later on I still made new opportunities in lower ranked unis
Just keep your head up and work more because you’ll always get to see all your work come to fruition by the time your done

Somatic edditing will either never work, or it will be like buying a piece of tech, but insted of wearing a thing, a part of you will change. But i don't think it will ever become really widespread. More like plastic surgery.

Europe lacks behind, Asia and America already had many cases of genetically modified humans either they are cured from genetic diseases or in atleast two official cases the probability to develop a disease (and a probable slight improvement of learning ability) was done.

>>14358684 >In Talmud it says you can freely take from gentiles They cannot
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s60Cadr6dYY The Talmud is not to be read by people who haven't even finished the Chumash, you can spend an entire day on one page of the Gemara and still learn nothing because that's how difficult it is. I would advise you to hold your tongue when speaking about Judaism in general, but specially the sages, as one of the punishments in Gehinom for people that speak lashon hara is being hanged by the tongue.
