Studies: It takes less than one second for people to accurately judge beauty
Beauty can be identified and processed in under 1 second
Palomares et al. (2018) found a similar result that only 33 ms were necessary for a high degree of agreement

Studies: Babies can easily differentiate between attractive and unattractive faces
Newborn babies can easily differentiate between attractive and unattractive faces, suggesting that face recognition is hardwired at birth, rather than learned
Slater at al. took pictures of a variety of faces and asked adult subjects to rate them for attractiveness on a scale from 1 to 5. The researchers then searched for pairs of photographs that were similar in all respects – in brightness and contrast, for example – but at opposite ends of the attractiveness scale
They then presented these paired photographs to newborn infants, who ranged in age from one to seven days old. All babies were still in hospital after birth. One researcher held each infant upright about 30 centimetres away from the two photos. Another stood out of view and noted where the babies eyes were directed
On average, the babies spent 80% of their time looking at the more attractive face than the less attractive one
This is solid evidence that the social constructionist view of beauty is false

Schools spent ~100% of their time in math on teaching
(1) Memorizing performing basic addition and multiplication — something calculators have long been able to do
(2) Solving equations — something modern AIs and solvers now have nearly entirely solved
When they should have spent ~100% of that time on:
(3) Properly translating from english to the equations — Which computers and humans are still often horrible at
But ofc they wouldn’t do that, because (3) is too g-loaded, and schools hate focusing on actual g-loaded things because sexism and racism or something

Scott Adams on laziness
— Suggests what if laziness may arise from focusing on the cost of things, instead of the payoff
I’ll tell you what though
— Found in the past year though, many dgaf about the payoff
Truly dgaf, at all
E.g. incredible 250x or 750x payoffs, that people not only ignore when warned ahead of time, remaining completely unexcited when true opportunity comes loudly knocking
— But also completely ignoring and disregaring even AFTER they’ve actually fully happened, as if nothing just happened at all
What if the vast majority of people are totally unexcited about enormous payoffs as well?
Maybe has something to do with the “scars” many get from being in bear times, as those VC memos mentioned
Or maybe just the world is a lazy place

Kegan’s Orders of Conciousness Level 1: babies understanding object permanence Level 2: can understand what gets you what you want, but little personal values beyond that very crude values system Level 3: tribal adopting of your tribe’s values which are…
But ofc, many will insist that women who think like these don’t exist,
or say these must be some kind of extreme rare exception, that for some reason don’t count
Kegan was right, that fewer than 1% of people are ever able to truly comprehend that there are many others whose mind thinks completely differently from how theirs does,
i.e. Kegan’s Orders of Conciousness Level 5
