Why does the penis stop growing at the end of puberty? What mechanism is at play here? Does the density of androgen receptors in the penis become super low or what?

Salvatore Pais: How the U.S. Government De-legitimizes Fusion Power While Accelerating Research

No.13600859 ViewReplyOriginalReport
It was the very end of 2019 and, one evening, on 8kun’s /x/ board, an anonymous post came in concerning a legitimate scientific topic rather than the usual paranormal garbage that usually clutters the board. If this site’s Paranormal board is like an unfashionable nightclub populated by exclusively ugly, overweight males, 8kun’s version is like taking that same nightclub and moving it to the North Pole. Posts on that board frequently remain on page one for three to four weeks, with fewer than 60,000 historical posts on the board at the time of the evening in question.

The post concerned the topic of fusion power. The post detailed a suggested pathway to achieving net power generation or “ignition” with a new approach involving harvesting gluons, something that hadn’t been tried before. Gluons form the basis for the strong nuclear force and are the force that hold protons and neutrons together, as well as binding the quarks that make up subatomic particles. The theory held that if enough gluons could be liberated from collisions of protons and contained within a rotating plasma, it would act to ‘pull together’ matter rather than trying to ‘push’ it together. A quick search showed that this had never been tried before and I was intrigued.

Just how valid is the concept of IQ? Throughout my life I've always thought of myself as borderline retarded/average at best, but recent psychological examination that was part of my depression screening revealed that I have autism and and an IQ of 130+, which supposedly means I'm more intelligent than 98% of the population.

I'm very inclined to believe that the tests are utter bullshit cause if the score had any validity I wouldn't be constantly struggling with learning new things, missing simple details even when I'm attentive and having extreme difficulty with things that require common sense (I get that this isn't strictly tied to intelligence but still, feel like my stupidity definitely plays a big part in this)

Can someone more educated on this shed some light here?

picking two random numbers from 1 to 100, the probability that the sum of the two numbers will be greater than 50 is 90%

is this correct?
