I think I do *feel* logic, or rather, I sometimes have an emotional response (fear) to something illogical before I consciously recognize the nature of the invalidity. Can this be possible though?

Recent study, based on large UK Biobank samples, finds that sex can be predicted from brain morphology with close to perfect accuracy, 99.7%. This is much higher than previous studies I reviewed some time ago, see next.

@webdevMason @SarahTheHaider And that is getting less and less and less. And unlikely to revert
@Peacockg @SarahTheHaider Well, yes, but trying to conserve things is what conservatives do Global religions try to figure it out so they can both prescribe a philosophy/lifestyle and spread to places that already have their own But indeed, moral relativism is the west's cuppa atm
@SarahTheHaider I think it basically never works without sufficient cultural homogeneity/enforced assimilation
Not going to comment on the "racism vs. theft" discourse, but one of the things that drew me to cultural conservatism was the defense of shame as a legitimate cultural mechanism to enable societies to do things like care for the poor without impossibly burdensome red tape
This is an established genre of video now, the most infamous examples being the Indian Student Food Bank scams in Canada. High Trust Societies being exploited in ways that aren’t priced in, presuming basic standards of conduct and not anticipating newcomers fraudulently lying
Does diversity make teams work better? Apparently not! A new, comprehensive preregistered meta-analysis found that, whether the diversity was demographic, cognitive, or occupational, its relationship with performance was near-zero.
@cremieuxrecueil I think this is explained by the "common knowledge effect": diverse groups are in theory better decision-makers because they combine many perspectives. But in practice, a group doesn't base its decisions on the info specific to each member, only on the info common to them all.
There's a large gap in measured cognitive ability between education doctorates with an EdD and those with an Education PhD.
@SarahTheHaider So I'm not *at all* typically the one to have this take, but why does "show a little positivity and enthusiasm" here remind me eerily of "you'd be pretty if you smiled"?

@SarahTheHaider This is the reading 😑
@SarahTheHaider A more immediate error is the use of the word “the” im “the reading”, as if everyone knows what it is specifically referring to. We saw this disgusting cop-out all the time with the climate change and pandemic issues, when people talked about “the science”.
@SarahTheHaider @elizamondegreen I see, "do the reading"/"educate yourself" as a defensive move by people who have been indoctrinated, not educated. They can't debate because all they've got are secondhand slogans and jargon, with nothing solid behind them.
@SarahTheHaider @JonCrowellOrg The non-theocratic natural law canon. This probably has nothing to do with the topic, but it is good advise nonetheless.
I went through the same arc from the other side when I used to believe in police abolition. Recognizing that I can't defend my ideas, but wishcasting that someone out there could on my behalf From "Defunding My Mistake" essay
My big problem has been to take people at their word and presume that "doing the reading" is important, and so I read and read and read. But the big secret about the "intelligencia" is that none of them take reading seriously, and if you do you are NOT one of them.
@SarahTheHaider Look at this: x.com/amazlngnature/…
