Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Increasing IQ is trivial, published by George3d6 on March 2, 2024 on LessWrong. TL;DR - It took me about 14 days to increase my IQ by 13 points, in a controlled experiment that involved no learning, it was a relatively pleasant process, more people should be doing this. A common cliche in many circles is that you can't increase IQ. This is obviously false, the largest well-documented increase in IQ using nothing but training is one of 23 points. A Standard Deviation of IQ Alas it is a myth that persists, and when pushed on it people will say something like: You can't easily increase IQ in a smart and perfectly healthy adult permanently. FINE - I'm a smart and perfectly healthy adult, I tested my IQ with 4 different tests: FSIQ, the public MENSA test, Raven's progressive matrices, and Raven's advanced progressive matrices. Then I threw the kitchen sink at the problem, and went through every intervention I could find to increase IQ over the course of 14 days (this took ~3 hours per day). This included no "learning", or memory games, nor did it include any stimulants. It was all focused on increasing cerebral vascularization and broadening my proprioception. I got a mean increase of 8.5 points in IQ (my control got 2), and if I only take into account the non-verbal components that increase is 12.6 (3.2 for my control). In other words, I became about a 1-standard deviation better shape rotator. I observed an increase of > 4 points on all of the tests (and, sigh, if you must know: p=0.00008 on MWU for me, 0.95 for my control) I used a control who was my age, about as smart as me, shared a lot of my activities, and many of my meals, and lived in the same house as me, in order to avoid any confounding. Also, to account for any "motivation bias" I offered to pay my control a large amount for every point of IQ they "gained" while retaking the tests. Here is the raw data. The Flowers for Algernon The common myths around IQ and its "immutability" are best summarized here by Gwern. "Given that intelligence is so valuable, if it was easy to get more of it, we would be more intelligent" -for one this argument is confusing IQ for intelligence, but, more importantly, it's ignoring reality. Many things are "valuable" yet we don't have them because our evolutionary environment places constraints on us that are no longer present in our current environment. Nor is it obvious that many of the traits we value were useful for the human species to propagate, or had an easy way of being selected in our short evolutionary history. Here, let me try: In the mid-20th century: Your average human has about 50kg of muscles, and the most muscular functional human has about 100kg of muscles. A human with 300kgs of muscles would be stronger than a grizzly bear, an obviously desirable trait, but our genetics just don't go there, and you can only take training and steroids that far. 2021: Here's a random weightlifter I found coming in at over 400kg, I don't have his DEXA but let's say somewhere between 300 and 350kgs of muscle. In the mid-19th century: Fat storage is useful, if we could store as much fat as a bear we could do things like hibernate. Alas, the fatest humans go to about 200kgs, and people try to eat a lot, there's probably a genetic limit on how fat you can get. In the mid-20th century: Here's a guy that weighs 635kg, putting an adult polar bear to shame. And fine you say, becoming stronger and/or fatter than a bear requires tradeoffs, you won't live past 50 or so and you will sacrifice other areas. But then let's look at other things that are genetically determined, evolutionarily selected for (heavily), but where with modern tools we can break past imposed boundaries: Thymic involution Skin aging Bone and cartilage repair Eyesight One reason why this point of view is so popular is becaus...

We conclude our Destiny review and as expected, not even SEED mode can save this plane from crashing.  The back half is full of twists that don't make sense and super weapons that fire every few episodes for good measure.  Lil' Djibril is more trigger happy than ever, Shin kills Captain McSacrifice, somehow Mwu returns, the writers assassinate Lunamaria's character, Yuna's plan falls flat, Destroy triggers the inverse ninja law, and Talia becomes the worst mom ever at the last minute.  Plus, we contemplate obvious next steps for the upcoming SEED film: The Return of George Glenn: Revenge of the Whales!

Housing Affordability Report here II Per Capita CEO Emma Dawson joins us to explain the findings of their recently launched report on Housing Affordability in Australia.Public Housing Rally here II The Public Housing tenants at 240 Wellington St, Collingwood rallied outside Victorian Housing Minister Richard Wynne's Office on Friday 6th May to hand in a petition calling for the scrapping of the social housing build on their only green space. This is the Week here II Kevin Healy slices and dices the week.Moreland Council Strike Rally here II Like many work places across Australia that have been given an offer below the inflation level in their latest EBA negotiation ASU and MWU members at the Moreland Council downed tools on Wednesday May 4th to rally for decent wages and conditions. We joined them outside the Brunswick Townhall.

Get to know the Move With Us Coaches Rachel, Emma, and Morgan! The Coaches recap what's been going on in their lives, share their experience as fitness coaches, and discuss what's coming up for MWU.

In this episode I talk about how 1Chronicles 16:7-36 provides instruction on giving thanks to God, interview Carlene Styles, and highlight the ministry of OCC and MWU.

Django Nudo is a hoarse host but he and the Smut Peddler still relish the opportunity to spread some Halloween horror that Cultpix members might not be familiar with, as there is 10 films to fright and delight this week. First there is a rant about why we are not fans of horror sequels and franchises, which is one of the reasons you will only find film made before 1990 on Cultpix (with some exceptions). So enjoy "Halloween XXVIII" in cinemas, but don't forget about the all great horror films still to be discovered. Speaking off which..."Alice, Sweet Alice" (1976) is worth watching for more than just being Brooke Shields' big screen debut. This proto-slasher inspired by "Don't Look now" (1973) is about a disturbed young girl who may be responsible for a series of stabbings, including that of her younger sister. "Possibly the closest American relation to an Italian giallo," according to Ed Gonzalez and ranked the fourth-best slasher film of all time by Complex magazine in 2017. "Kids Shouldn't Play With Dead Things" (1972) sees actors go to an island where criminally insane are buried. Maybe not the best place to perform necromantic rituals that bring the dead back to life. Directed by famed horror director Bob Clark who later did "Black Christmas", "A Christmas Story", and "Porky's." A comedy-horror film that has genuinely creepy atmosphere. "Beast of the Yellow Night" (1971) is Filipino/American horror film, which has the distinction of being on Garth's wall in "Wayne's World". Beat that for obscure pop reference! "Blood and Lace" (1971), not to be confused with the Mario Bava "Blood and Black Lace", is an American proto-slasher that looks like it inspired "Halloween" and "Nightmare on Elm Street." Orphan teenage girl arrives in a remote orphanage run by a madwoman (Gloria Grahame, who came out of retirement for this film) and her handyman, both of them sadistic child murderers."Billy the Kid versus Dracula" and "Jesse James Meets Frankenstein's Daughter" (1966) were popular drive-in double bill. This rare MWU (monsters western universe) sub-genre sees gunslingers confront horror icons.  Both films were shot in eight days at Corriganville Movie Ranch and at Paramount Studios and were the final feature films of director William 'One-take' Beaudine. "Pigs" (1973) is the first in the animals-eat-humans double-bill, with pigs developing a taste people, while "The Corpse Grinders" (1971) sees corpses used for cat food, only for kittens to develop a taste for human flesh. It also has the most gratuitous poster of all ten films. "Monsters Crash the Pajama Party" (1965) is an interactive horror films where the monsters would come off the screen and kidnap women in the audience, who then appear on-screen. You get a good idea of what it must have been like to watch it in cinemas. Great fun form Something Weird Video."Besökarna/The Visitors" (1988) is that rare beast - a Swedish haunted house film, restored by the Swedish Film Institute with some impressive acting talent. We end with the track "Children Shouldn't Play With Dead Things" by Finnish heavy/doom metal band Wolfshead. Happy Halloween!

We launch toward Jachin Due to begin the back half of our Gundam SEED review!  Isaac opens his Blue Cosmos HQ to answer all of Brian's questions.  Does SEED have an acronym problem?  Are coordinators really all that great or were naturals just using Windows 95?  Is Patrick Zala a vengeful chef?  Would you eat Junius 7 rock candy?  Is Lakoose more like Cardi B or Billie Eilish?  Plus, Mwu finally docks with Ramius, Lord Izumi is an idiot, and Rau channels his inner Char with Flay.  Launch the Dominion!  For the preservation of our blue and pure world!

We conclude our review of the first half of Gundam SEED by discussing the characters, the mecha, and whether the show holds up compared to our memories.  Kira is Jesus, Mwu is chill, Flay has no chill, Rau has a magic map, Athrun is a bad boyfriend, and deep down Yzak is just mad he got the boring Gundam.  In a surprise twist, Isaac allies not with Zeon ZAFT but with the Earth Alliance in order to preserve our blue and pure world!  Better send some GOOhNs to correct his attitude!

Interview with Dr. Milena McLaughlin!In her own words Dr. McLaughlin is: "Philadelphia transplant to the Midwest with no immunosuppression required! I attended the oldest pharmacy school in the country (Philadelphia College of Pharmacy) and then completed a PGY-1 Pharmacy Residency at Maimonides Medical Center in Brooklyn, NY and an Infectious Diseases Fellowship at Northwestern Memorial Hospital (NMH) through Midwestern University (MWU). After 10 years of training (after all, pharmacists love to count by fives), I achieved my lifelong dream (at least since third grade) of becoming a math teacher (Clinical Pharmacokinetics). I am currently an Associate Professor at MWU and I am also an HIV/ID Clinical Pharmacist at NMH. Students often laugh at my really bad pharmacy jokes. In my “free” time you can find me baking castle shaped bundt cakes, crafting, or watching any Philadelphia sports team game."More episode information available at www.twopillspodcast.com

Nicole Noble is currently in her first year of Dental School at Midwestern University Glendale campus.  She is an AZ native who grew up in Show Low, AZ with 5 siblings.  Her father graduated from University of Pacific in 1975 and opened a practice in Show Low where Nicole started assisting him during high school.  She went on to pursue marriage, motherhood and a cosmetology license.  After 4 years working in a salon, she decided dental assisting was where her heart was.  She was an assistant at an office in Glendale for many years, and after her divorce in 2010, she was inspired to become a dentist.  She had her heart set on Midwestern University.  A single mother of 3 girls she was working part-time and taking classes full-time. It took her 6 years, an AS, BS and MA and 3 application cycles to finally be accepted at MWU.  She is truly living her dreams now and she feels very strongly that girls and women should be encouraged and supported in dental careers.  She is interested in giving back to the community by working in the non-profit realm to provide dentistry for single mothers.  She strives every day to inspire her daughters to work hard and set goals to make themselves better people.

This week we interview Ike Urling, a fourth year dental student at MWU. Ike shares with us his journey to finding an amazing off market practice in one of the most saturated areas of Arizona. Ike used methods that Jordan Thomas discusses in episode 2-21 to find his ideal practice. He also delves into a crucial aspect of making these opportunities a reality: relationship building! It has always been our goal here at Shared Practices to provide real, relevant information that helps dentists pursue their dream of practice ownership. Ike represents the reality of this goal and we are happy he has joined us in this episode to continue to help educate others on their path to ownership!
