This is a fair question, so I'm not going to give you the Emmett treatment, but the answer is "no". See, most people think that the problem with communism is that people aren't perfectly altruistic, or central planners aren't smart enough, but neither of these is the real…

I've written about the genetics of educational attainment [ gusevlab.org/projects/hsq/#… ] as part of a broader doc on heritability. I'll summarize the key points here, critiques very welcome! Also some pointed thoughts at the end on the state and future of this research. 🧵
Someone emailed asking me for a reading list on the meaning of life for an informal discussion group among friends, here were my suggestions in case others are interested

What happens when you assign groups of people to - Exercise without steroids - Exercise with steroids - Not exercise without steroids - Not exercise with steroids The guys who take steroids and don't exercise gain more muscle than the guys who exercise without steroids!
People think Derrida is for pretentious literary scholars but he’s actually for insane people who’ve been through inexpressible spiritual crises
𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟯, a few suggestions! (including older books read this year) My top two choices include Kevin Mitchell's 𝗙𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀, a fascinating take on how to "naturalize" challenging problems such as agency, and even free will.
Classics, from a shelf in my lab office. So much deep information! Much of it "lost" from today's general knowledge. Super useful = LLM AI to digest digital versions (where they exist, + multimodal - amazing diagrams) & answer q.'s like "Where exactly is topic X mentioned?".
I don’t know of any stronger refutation of Enlightenment liberalism than the newly discovered fact that John Locke’s pancake recipe from 1675 says “Frie it without butter. This is the right way.”
