Probably the most poorly-written article I've read this week. But it's basically correct. Learning ability in individuals is highly correlated across different skills, and is very stable over the individual's life. It's also correlated to reaction times in tests of basic reflexes. And the dynamic range of the correlated bits (g) across the population is not small. I've yet to encounter a serious denial of these points. Taken separately, nature and nurture are necessary but not sufficient conditions on achievement. They're also both heritable. And we know that g is heritable. It seems likely that between nature and nurture, the former is more important, but I'm not aware of any compelling evidence for this.
