IQ (moved subtopic)
^^Hey Luciom, can you remind me again how smart JD Vance is? Above, same, or below the average MAGA chode?
I have no problem with schools using affirmative action to help people like Vance with humble backgrounds.... but maybe not in law school where these idiots start becoming dangerous. And they got to find smarter people then Vance or the whole thing just looks ridiculous and all you're doing is de-valuing your own department.
I usually just given the other side enough credit to figure out that this is all understood. Maybe I'm aiming too high for them.
Ah I see. You left all that as implied in order to make the point that... *checks notes*... fruit pickers have the same analytical reasoning skills as computer programmers.

I've worked with programmers. There is no doubt in my mind that there are many fruit pickers that have better analytical reasoning skills than ~25% of programmers.

i think once you worked with the fruit pickers in a coding environment you wouldn't feel that way
i worked all manual labor jobs 60+ hours a week every summer from 16 to 22
my coworkers were largely tattoo covered ex cons who kept calling calling me a *** for going to college because only an idiot would do that - a lot of it is blue collar culture, but those people did not wind up working a job in their 30s and 40s where it was such unskilled work that a teenager could be one of their peers randomly - they chose that life

or more appropriately, that life chose them
well played
crossnerd - you anointed her top position
deuces mcconspiratard - self proclaimed
me - anointed by sklansky
roc - anointed by skansky
one can naturally assume that unless others speak up, they are somewhere between 5th and infinity
chez and sklansky haven't seemed to throw their hat into the ring

Sklansky's hat is always in the ring. He was a prodigy who could multiply 2 digit numbers on a napkin by the age of 16 or something.
Uh? where did i deny Einstein was very intelligent?
I have only one qualm with him which is that he had his morals block his research, when his own models, and the stuff written by colleagues based on his intuitions, made it plausible that stochasticity was at the basis of everything that existed, he went with "god doesn't play dice" and stopped worked on that line of thought.
But anyway others did so not too big of a deal at the end.
Missing an obvious joke. -10 points to the IQ score, Sklansky
I note for the record that I never threw my hat into any sort of ring. At best, my hat was thrown in by someone else.
Rick, you should probably bump him a couple of spots before he starts pushing paperwork and we all get rolled up by the feds.
