As a scientist, even mentioning IQ is a good way to lose your career in the US. It's frustrating because the general population are turning to off-label drugs and supplements. 30% of college students are taking some sort of ADHD drugs for performance enhancement and even more when including nootropics.
- willholloway 13y agoThe gigantic demand for stimulants and nootropics is a good indicator that people are feeling the strain of the information age and reaching for answers. We need far better answers. The situation is only going to intensify as more low end jobs are automated.
- danielweber 13y agoDo we know that those drugs actually help? I can easily see 30% of college students doing something because they think it helps.
