The content is questionable, but I'm a firm believer in testable hypothesis, and this collection connects together very nicely different fields (ASD, IQ, theory of the mind, computational cost) of interesting testable hypothesis for models that could be tested with a different population.
It made me think about how IQ may just be an estimation of the Kolmogorov complexity threshold of problems a human brain can compute.
It's certainly influenced by the environment and many other things: for a computer equivalent, the CPU is not all that matters: you need RAM (working memory, IIRC the human brain "stack" is on average 6 elements), SSD (memory of experiences) but it was thought provoking and I'm genuinely grateful to the shadowbanned poster for having exposed me to such interesting ideas!
