Just a really dumb thought. 1) A military commander programs an AI squadron with the parameters of destroying a heavily defended military target with the parameters of minimizing casualties. 2) The AI veers the bombers 180 degrees off cours

> The reason college is a requirement is because everyone who is in charge went to one, and believes it is necessary. Somewhat. At least in our company, my friends in HR say that it's not as really a hard requirement to be successfu

Might be a good idea to first get an actual IQ measurement first before making a major career decision based on said IQ. A proper IQ test administered by a psychologist or MD, not an SAT test or an online one. For what it's worth, I&#x

Can't really comment on whether it's humane, that's a debate left to people smarter then me. Like I said, there's pretty significant downtime, it's not all go all the time. Weekend and evening work is at a fairly r

What makes you think that it's not humanly possible? Medical residents do similar hours. It's only been in the last 200 or so years that the 40 hour work week was more normal. To answer your question though; About 45 to 60 hours a

You would not be the first to be flabbergasted when I mentioned this. Thing is, if you're imagining the someone with low IQ as someone that's on the short bus that needs padding or a social worker to guide them through the day, th

It's a nice thought, but IQ is very real. The reason I was tested was because at an IQ of 80 to 84 you might be able to qualify for disability benefits from social security. I didn't qualify, but it was so close to the edge that f

Most my coworkers have. I'm somewhat unlucky in that regard, average work week is about 60 to 90 hours a week for a $40,000/yr salary as QA. That said, I something of an edge case. I have an IQ in the mid 80's, so the fact th

Perhaps, but sometimes it's the right thing to do even if it's painful. Imagine for a moment a person makes the decision to commit suicide but needs to stay alive for a while longer in order to complete certain professional obliga

There is a difference though. One is voluntary, the other mandatory. And I can see it having it's advantages, even if offered to people of all ages (only requiring evidence that they comprehend and understand what it is they're as

True but I was referring specifically to a line in the article attributed to one of the director's of the study: "Robert Waldinger, the current director of the study, summarized – in what is now one of the most viewed TED Talks to

Do you happen to know the name of the story? And in the context of the story, would it not be plausible that they would acclimate to being isolated from their peers? There is precedent. In WW2 there were Japanese soldiers that remained figh

I've always wondered about these kinds of studies. For example, let's say we took a loner and gave them a 24/7 health monitor system that also helped apply preventative and corrective treatments, would someone live just as lo
