    Slightly related:

    I’ve heard that on average men and women are essentially the same in intelligence scores, with men doing better in certain aspects and women in others but it’s essentially a wash.

    I’ve also heard that the grouping for women is tighter, i.e. there are more dumb men than women. Now, depending on how you calculate the average that raises as interesting question: does this then mean there are more extra smart men to make the overall average the same? Like, if intelligence was a bullseye women would be grouped in the same ring, while men would be spread out over the wider and tighter rings than the women?

    Same vibes as this video with Adam Savage. Apparently this piece of armour was a big mystery with tons of different drawings etc trying to place it as horse armour when Adam almost immediately correctly identifies it when first looking at it.

    This is the power of diverse experience where experts can have a blind spot that’s easily solved by others that have a different perspective.
