Autism has nothing to with intelligence. It just means you lack the ability to pick up on otherwise obvious social cues.

The Flood / Re: How is intelligence determined?« on: June 20, 2015, 03:17:10 AM »Zonda bumped this. I read over some of my replies. I noticed an error. Sorry?Knowledge and intelligence are different. Loaf isn't going to be able to just change how smart he is for the better. For the worse, sure, just do a bunch of drugs. But there's really no easy way to increase your IQ, as Loaf wants. It's better to just accept who you are and your limitations, and work with them.do you always edit your posts five hours after you post them 20557
The Flood / Re: How is intelligence determined?« on: June 20, 2015, 03:14:39 AM »One could argue that the best possible determination of your intellect is your happiness with your life situation, e.g. Were you smart enough to overcome any inhibitions you may have had, to make decisions that allowed you to accomplish any major goals you had in life?That's more of just situational success. You can be the smartest guy in the world IQ-wise and still not be able to get over some personal fear. I'd argue that intelligence is just how adept you are in academic and critical-thinking challenges, and that it's largely decided based on genes alone. 20558

The Flood / Re: How is intelligence determined?« on: June 19, 2015, 10:39:05 PM »Knowledge is simply how much you know, intelligence is your capacity for knowledge and your level of critical thinking. Wisdom is something entirely different.Knowledge and intelligence are different.I'm inclined to agree. But to you, what separates knowledge from intelligence? 20568

Obviously, your brain develops while you're a child and teenager, but this isn't fucking relevant to what I'm talking to Loaf about.I don't know what you're talking about, especially when you say stuff like we can't make ourselves smarter. Like, do you mean that we can't change our IQs? Our capacity to learn? I would agree with that, I guess. Some people have learning disabilities. 20569

Obviously, your brain develops while you're a child and teenager, but this isn't fucking relevant to what I'm talking to Loaf about.No, you can't really make yourself "smarter".I'm pretty sure I was smarter after I learned language than I was before I could speak/read/write. 20570
The Flood / Re: How is intelligence determined?« on: June 19, 2015, 10:05:51 PM »No, you can't really make yourself "smarter". But you can make yourself happier, and that's ultimately all that matters. If you're willing to accept your level of intelligence, have some self-awareness about it, you won't be constantly so down on yourself about it.Intelligence and convictions are overrated. If focusing on that shit is making you unhappy, then you're missing the point.It's not the arbitrary level of intelligence I place on myself that I am concerned about, it's more so the fact that I just constant look on the things that I say and I just think they seem so stupid, I can't even get over the fact that I will never just be a more intelligent person. 20571
