Would Eugenics Work? Simulating millions of people, using quantitative genetics and the UN's cohort component method I estimate the outcome: A $20,000 annual child benefit yields 2-18 IQ point gains over a century

The Yookay is a joke. Everyday my timeline is filled with the most absurd, clown world news.
16-17 year olds to vote in the next UK election: "Oh no, should we make politics a compulsory subject in schools?" "No it's fine, we already cover that in civics." Can Middle England comprehend that religion and clan are 1000x more potent than our bullshit education system?
I projected South Korea's population beyond 2100. To 2300. The population decline is so violent that, by 2300, their population will be ~50 thousand, 0.1% of what it is today! According to Gapminder, SK has not had a population that low since 2000 BC!

It's so good to see more gene therapies getting worked on. This one is particularly amazing because it's effectively a one-shot, permanent Exenatide—making humans produce a version of the compound in Gila monster venom like lifelong Ozempic! But is it safe? Probably! Short🧵
Japanese researchers got obese mice to lose weight using single-shot gene editing to get their bodies to produce the same drug that is in Ozempic. Being overweight will soon be a problem of the past.
In an article on eugenics, blogger 'Uncorrelated' analyzed a hypothetical policy where child benefits are scaled based on how far a couple's IQ is above the population average (measured in SD). The simulation looks like this:
