Lately this has been on my mind. I do everything, diet, exercise, social interaction, etc. But I am still just tired sometimes, nothing seems to kick. Maybe my mind is telling me that this way of life is down trodden? Find a new path? Worki

The hiring bar is overrated, I am constantly disappointed by engineers that I encounter at FAANG. Top teams are absolutely TOP, but plenty of mediocrity everywhere.

There are plenty of jobs outside IB. And within IB the pay rises so fast that the 200k starting at FB is a joke. I work at FAANG, the money is good, but its nothing like finance.

I'm not here to convince you of anything, more so to understand, maybe just a little, how people are being convinced of things that arent true. And how is it happening on such a wide scale. How did knowledge that was common 100 years a

I'm under the opinion that there is widespread brainwashing, and more than trying to prove my point, I just cant help but comment on it.

I will just leave it at this: For evolution to work, IQ has to be heritable, otherwise how did humans evolve intelligence? People who believe in evolution, but not in heritability of personality traits are living in a warped reality. I'

I would argue its rather that the facts are too hard for society to handle. A neural network that predicts IQ from physiology/outwardly visible characteristics is certainly possible. Phenotypes exist and display specific behavioral and

haha. Abstract classes are the solution to being bored at work and needing stimulation. My boss looks the other way when I create a stratified framework, long as it works.
