This is the thinnest building in Beirut, Al-Ba3sa aka "The Grudge". It's two feet wide at minimum and was built by one brother who wanted to obstruct another's view of the sea. Is there a place for building out of spite in the eternal way @normonics ? pic.twitter.com/Ltgk5l0K9L

Think of all the stuff we wouldn’t know without Assange. He was our media when we had no media to speak of. And we still don’t! Give the man a medal @wikileaks

The Syriac is Pawlos & there was a Dawid Bar Pawlos in the 8-9 C. Boulos might be a recent Arabization, indicating people used the "p", no?

Paulos/Pavlos ->Boulos in names so I wonder what "Paul" was. When did it enter? It had to be older. Shawul?

10) One can raise IQ points by 2 STF just by training, so it can't be genetic.
PS-
I've been getting 1000s of such messages since I've posted the IQ piece by Nordist supremacist trolls. Incidentally, my "co-ethnics" score high on the test. pic.twitter.com/o6VWleKybQ

LOCALISM
One person to a life partner:”I deal w/ mundane matters: where to live, what to eat, where to educate the children, etc. You focus on centrally important ones: geopolitical relations, tensions w/Russia, future of technology...”
Let the State do the *important* things...

People need to stop with IQ - NNT has already very publicly shown why it should not be used. twitter.com/nntaleb/status…

6) Fail to get that growth is not driven by AVERAGE but by EXTREMES that depend on variance
7) Even if effect is as claimed, it is drowned into variance to make it usuable as immigration policy.
8) It is IMMORAL to emprison people in fake boxes!!!

2) ALL of these studies fail to account for cultural aspects of testing.
3) Main researcher @GarettJones doesn't know what NOISE means.
4) Similar previous "research" did same for Irish, Southern Slavs, etc. who have now caught w/rest
5) A few data points can flip IQ/Performance!

WARNING: 1/n
@ZeroHedge published a post on "country IQ" meant to justify that some races are "genetically inferior", hence bound to remain poor because of genetic defects.
1) The article was written by a charlatan, James Thompson using shoddy statistics (see my Medium piece) twitter.com/nntaleb/status…
