Why do IQ denialists on /sci/ run and hide when asked to explain why coof researchers are forever mentioning drops in IQ? Clearly modern science still sees value in IQ tests.

My stepdad faggot always knows everything better. He is mostly right, but sometimes, like in this example he defends stupid shit with all his certainty, dignity and superiority. So he told me that the longer the screwdriver then more leverage it has on a screw and therefore one needs to use less power to twist it. I obviously said the leverage rules don't apply here, but I wasn't sure how to explain it.
Who's a retard here?

A good scientist has to be a troll.
The reasoning behind this, is a good scientist must be willing to put aside ego, values and power in exchange for the knowledge that betters the human species.
If no one questioned anything, and we blindly followed, no one would've come up with the idea of agriculture circa 10-15,000 years ago.
No one would've come up with new ways of engineering, advances in tech or new ideas opening our horizons.
It might take a collective to form an opinion, but it took one person to spark the idea in the first place.
Sending love, not that we believe in that sort of thing cause yknow we know how it works now but the sentiment is there nonetheless.

My theory is that humans originated from Africa and spread out around the world. Initially, we had skin color that was black which means that people with white skin are the most developed humans. If skin color is paler, it indicates more development, such as in people from China, Germany, Netherlands and Japan, who have the highest IQs and also the palest skin.

what if free will cannot coexist with rational thought?
think about it, if one always makes decisions that are the best, the most optimal at given moment and that include every possible bit of information, then how can that be called free will?
one may find himself making a difficult decision between several options being equally rational -- then whatever he picks might just as well be a random choice
in other words we could reduce purely rational thinking into an optimization algorithm that takes as much information about a decision to be made as possible and then picks the best one. On that basis one could dare to say that purely rational thinking is deterministic in a scope of knowledge at hand which is the only scope possible for any given decision.

Why do so many provisional beliefs call themselves "fact" and very very loosely and casually use that word. Wouldn't "most likely" be better terminology?

At what point does what is left over stops being a pile of sand?

Hello sci.
I am an undergrad student, struggling A LOT with commutative ring theory (the stuff in Artin Algebra chapter 11 12 13 15).
I am struggling with problems of factoring stuff in a ring, finding which two given rings are isomorphic and in general i have been unable to develop intuition for the subject
I studied group theory from Keith Conrad's notes, Rotman an Introduction to the Theory of Groups, Herstein Topics in Algebra, and Martin Isaac finite group theory and liked them a lot
But I have not found similar resources for ring theory. Should i just do Herstein and call it a day?
Any good books /prerequisites/pathways to develop a strong intuitive familiarity and deep understanding of this topic?

I found out some people think there are only a finite amount of integers.
If the integers are finite, what is the biggest integer and what happens when you apply the Successor Function to it?
