    an hackernews:

    a high correlation between intelligence and IQ

    motherfuckers out here acting like “intelligence” is sufficiently well-defined that a correlation between it and anything else can be computed

    intelligence can be reasonably defined as “knowledge and skills to be successful in life, i.e. have higher-than-average income”

      ooh can I play? A species’ or race’s intelligence can be reasonably defined by how rapidly it extracts resources from the surrounding area.
