There are probably ways to correlate the military test with a standardized IQ test, and which point the military test might be a rough proxy for IQ. If that was the case, the 80 IQ rule might be roughly accurate.

I don’t know if that’s been done though. Just playing devil’s advocate.

Taylor Swift chose to list on Ticketmaster with full knowledge that those fees would be included.

Interesting topic, but the article’s writing style is god-awful and a bit hard to get through.

I don’t think that’s quite right. The act of changing the channel wouldn’t have impacted the station’s ad revenue because the tech couldn’t tell if the ad was served. On YouTube you actually deprive the site of ad revenue with an ad blocker. And if enough people do it, you could also deprive creators of material earnings.

Mate, a good third of the countries on that list are currently suffering such brutal ethnic violence that it might be considered genocide. Close to half are riddled by islamic terrorism, usually directed towards ethnic minorites. At least two of them are in the middle of civil wars.

I feel like I’m taking crazy pills. You can like the comic and I can not like the comic. That’s perfectly fine.

To be fair, this is how people tend to react to change, generally. I remember every time Facebook or YouTube did a site redesign in the early 2010s people were always up in arms.

Jake and Amir parodied this well in their “Facebook Redesign” episode.
