    As stated below, this was pretty much the answer to the question I had. Very informative. And kind of rare if I might say. Usually asking a question of the Google search engine leaves me feeling like a complete moron. This was not always the case.

    Great stuff. I loved the content and focus, and flow was really good!! If I look back at your first video now this looks much cleaner. I don't know how to explain it. This reminds me of a lot of the Vox videos which I really enjoy their visualizations.
    If I can make a few small comments (cause I know you are always listening for tips/feedback) I thought your voice quality was better after 6:30. I think there is a noticeable audio change here. Post 6:30 it's lacking some bass depth I feel like, but prior to that the overall vocal quality sounded *just ever so slightly* muddled or fuzzy. I don't know how to explain it but I think you will know what I'm referring to.
    Hope to see more soon, man.

      Mate, you've got a good ear! The audio set up isn't as great where I am in isolation, and I rerecorded the second part. Impressive!
      But otherwise thanks for the kind words! Vox is obivously the gold-standard.

    iQ test is biased. You could train an animal to get 100% if you really tried. But he still wouldn't comprehend anything he would just know how people feel when he gets them wrong. you could also force somebody to get 100% but does that mean he is smart or is somebody is trying to force him?????

    IQ is improving because we are better able to preform on IQ tests thanks to the specialized abilities we possess more so now. In reality our intelligence (as measured by G) is declining and has been since the Victorian era. This video is p0zz3d, milquetoast and factually awry. IQ differences are very much real and rooted in biological differences btw.

    • @DoubleYolk
      @DoubleYolk  2 роки тому +3

      Lol. The current scientific consensus is that group differences in IQ or general intelligence are environmental in nature. All the studies that show group differences with a “socio-economic correction” have significant methodological issues. I’m not going to go nuclear and call you racist, but you should interrogate how your bias allows you to accept discredited sources as absolute fact.
