> "The third problem with the study is that there’s no control for race/ethnicity. Obviously, the West is changing to become less European, primarily due to Hispanic immigration. As Hispanic IQ is about 93, this causes a lowering over time in the cohorts where these people are, which will be mainly in the younger groups."

Changes to average IQ in the West are primarily due to demographic shifts. We should require a minimum IQ level to migrate and enforce strict removal of all illegal immigrants.

Wouldn't it be easier to enforce the laws and imprison criminals than to entirely reinvent retail?

Clearing the decks before CBDC.

Functioning electricity network + DEI = South Africa.

AAA gaming - as we have known it - is dead as long as major platforms continue with 30% commissions. All of the profits accrue to the platform owners, with studios either failing or being acquired by them.

The end result is a weak industry mostly dominated by skinner box free2play games or gambling apps.

Intel should scour Jensen Huang and Lisa Su's family tree to find more GPU Executives.

(Jensen is the CEO and founder of Nvidia and the uncle of the CEO of AMD, both are from Taiwan.)

If my parents-in-law didn't receive social security, it would be easier to convince them to sell their house and move interstate closer to us and provide babysitting services (which would encourage us to have more kids).

Unlimited welfare for the elderly is anti-natalist.

What about usage levels for all other age groups?

Houses in my city are declining in value by $10k/month right now. Why buy?

Probably reflects demographic changes within the US over the past several years.

Many children are unsuited to full high-school education. It would be better for everyone to send them into the workplace.

Straight out of the World Economic Forum: 'Digital Identity' playbook.

De-anonymize speech online, to protect the ruling class, and enforce any narrative you desire.

Simpler than that: just enact State, County, or HOA bans on corporations from owning single-family homes. Let them pour money into apartment complexes.

Its an easy topic: demographics.

I fear this will be a stalking horse for full digital identity, and eventually squashing all anonymous speech.

The best solution here would be to force all adult sites to require a minimum monthly payment from a credit card. Blocks underage users and helps tackle addiction.

The Demographics of the USA are rapidly shifting to resemble Brazil, instead of Europe:

These proficiency scores need to be broken down by ethnicity. If you uproot millions of Central American families into the USA, you would expect results of the USA to converge with countries south of its border.

Simply setting foot in the USA does not magically make someone more academically capable - ability is formed by biological intelligence, family upbringing and values, and the education system.

How much do DEI initiatives, directly related staff (Director of 'Belonging' etc), and non-meritocratic hiring practices impact profitability?

What about the alienation of staff and users considered part of 'legacy' demographics?

People rebel against fluoride, but ignore pesticide residues, PFAS contamination, leachates from plastic piping...

Law and Order in parts of the Southern USA is breaking down, due to the huge influx of illegal immigrants:

> The prevalence of police chases in the vicinity was a well-known problem in town before May. Uvalde Mayor Don McLaughlin told the National Review in March that the town was seeing two to three chases per day as more noncitizens crossed into the United States without permission.

> those inside received an alert but likely "assumed" it was about another border-related police chase than an active shooter

America should 'do something' about enforcing border security - and then police forces could deal with local issues and local shooters.

Apple has an entire ecosystem it can charge commissions for: Apps, Wallet, Arcade, iTunes, Music, iCloud, etc.

Samsung has none of that - AND doesn't control the operating system.

Apple has a long-term incentive to support devices through software updates and hardware upgrades. This is reflected in used prices: an iPhone 12 still sells at about 50% of original launch price, whereas a Samsung Galaxy S20 (both released in 2020) sells for 25%.

We need to strip CO2 out of the atmosphere too. CO2 is a known cognitive retardant [1], ocean acidifier[2], and plant nutrition degrader[2].

Iron fertilization seems like a good option: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_fertilization

Spend more on licensing back-catalogues.

Netflix should have just doubled their prices and 'doubled' the content they offered. Would have smothered all these other streaming services. The horse has bolted now.

The welfare state as we know it might not make it through 2023. It relies on cheap energy (Russia), cheap goods (China), cheap food (Ukraine), and active skilled labor (baby boomers).

Race exists on more of a spectrum than gender, which is fundamentally binary: XX or XY chromosomes.

Just become Trans-Racial, and change your HR settings to Black. We all came from Africa at some point anyway.
