That's an article apparently from a white nationalist, Jordan Lasker, a collaborator of Emil Kirkegaard's. Do you have any comments about the article itself?

Thanks! I read the introduction, and will add it to my weekend reading list.
The author objects to treating 'g' as a causal variable, because it doesn't help us understand how the mind works. He doesn't deny that 'g' is useful as a predictive variable.
- tptacek 2y agoI highly recommend reading the whole piece.
- rahimnathwani 2y agoI will! Weekend starts soon!
- tptacek 2y agoThe Borsboom and Glymour papers he links to are worth a skim too. It's a really dense (in a good way!) piece. Also shook up the way I think about other psych findings (the "big 5" in particular).
