Pakistan’s defense minister is openly mocking the U.S. strategy on Iran

β€œThe goal of the war seems to have shifted to opening the Strait of Hormuz, which was open before the war.”

So we’re fighting now because nothing was happening before.

Reminder:

When you see journalists reporting something with a title like 'How X influences Y', there will generally not be any indication that X even influences Y beyond that X is correlated with Y, and even that is rare.

New Chinese washing machines have separate compartments for underpants and socks, for hygienic reasons. Is this really necessary?

Isn’t it all clean anyway? I don’t get it.

Contrary to popular belief, higher intelligence is positively correlated with most other good traits - social skills, life satisfaction, mental health, etc. On average, smart people are more sociable and less mentally ill. Why do people feel like the opposite is true? Probably class-based segregation. We generally socialize with people in our overall successfulness bracket. So if someone is in your bracket and smarter than the bracket average, they probably have something else holding them back like relatively poor social skills. But across the whole population, the correlation is positive. This type of phenomenon, where correlations change signs in restricted subpopulations, is called Berkson's paradox

Funny thing is that lefty movies love to push the idea that everyone has tradeoffs

That attractive people must be horrible people, that ugly people must be wonderful people

Everyone secretly equal just in different ways, according to the commies

But that is NOT the reality for the population at large

Reality at large is the complete OPPOSITE

= Berkson's paradox

BUT

For ugly pathetic losers… it actually is their reality that they live in?

For ugly pathetic losers, if a hot girl somehow available and interested in you, high chances that there is some terrible hidden catch

For obviously horrible companies, if a candidate looks incredible, high chances that there is some terrible hidden catch

β€” Despite that for the world at large, the opposite is true, better really is better in the world at large

So

β€” Those who believe that there’s always a catch, e.g. that anyone attractive must have a terrible personality, e.g. that anyone who’s good at tech must be terrible at social skills, etc

= are actually revealing that they live in the pathetic loser realm, where such tradeoffs are their reality, despite that this isn’t the reality for those outside of loser realm

= beauty haters, who think that more attractive people are more evil, reveal their own ugliness
