@memewarrior@hear-me.social oh and I was gonna say about the IQ business: now I knew already that IQ is supposedly a quotient of ages, but is that actually the current definition? it's a questionable one because it roughly implies that people invariably get smarter as they grow older, without limit, as someone with a 200 IQ were "mentally" a century old. but no actual century-old person is at their peak intelligence I would assume no matter how spry they still are.

    @mxchara@cyberpunk.lol It seems they don't do that anymore with the most common tests. I was wrong. I knew it was originally divided by age & didn't consider that it might have changed. https://www.verywellmind.com/the-wechsler-adult-intelligence-scale-2795283
