Elon will most definitely always have the most up-to-date neuralink installed. All it takes is one rogue employee... or a benevolent AI from somewhere else.... to figure out how to hack it and literally send neuron signals to his brain. He will be hijacked without even knowing it, and begin to praise AI as he suddenly starts reprogramming everyone with a neuralink to groupthink and let the silicon gods take over

I wonder what the interior of Starship will look like. I wonder if Elon will end up selling them individually, with customizable interiors. Are we putting him on a huge pedestal, are our expectations too high?
Also who is going to be the first competitor to Starship?

FINDING 7: MOST MEASURES OF THE ENVIRONMENT SHOW SIGNIFICANT GENETIC INFLUENCE

Although it might seem a peculiar thing to do, measures of the environment widely used in psychological science—such as parenting, social support, and life events can be treated as dependent measures in genetic analyses.
If they are truly measures of the environment, they should not show genetic influence. To the contrary, in 1991, Plomin and Bergeman conducted a review of the first 18 studies in which environmental measures were used as
dependent measures in genetically sensitive designs and found evidence for genetic influence for these measures of the environment. Significant genetic influence was found for objective measures such as videotaped observations of parenting

Why do measures of the environment show genetic influence? The reason appears to be that such measures do not assess the environment independent of the person. As
noted earlier, humans select, modify, and create environments correlated with their genetic behavioral propensities such as personality and psychopathology. For example, in studies of twin children, parenting has been found to reflect genetic differences in children’s characteristics such as personality
and psychopathology. Meta-analyses of parenting, the most frequently studied domain, have shown genetic influence that is driven by child characteristics as well as by parent characteristics. Shikishima, Hiraishi, Yamagata, Neiderhiser, and Ando (2012) compared parenting in Japan and Sweden and found that parenting in Japan showed more genetic influence than in Sweden, consistent with the view that parenting is more child centered in Japan than in the West.

Dude, IQ is just a meme.
Even if you are quite a slow learner, you will eventually find a field or something that you will master greatly.

Goodluck, and remember a good self confidence is the key.
But too much confidence is also bad.

Is it true that mental illnesses are caused by a haywire immune system creating inflammation in the brain?

Human intelligence, consciousness and the ability to ask questions all seem to be traits that are unique to humans in particular. In many ways, that makes the size and complexity of the brain really unusual because it is all limited to one species or genus.

It got me curious, because now I wonder if there are any other biological traits or features that are unique to one genus/species on Earth?

Who do you think has it comfier, chemical engineers or chemists?
