it never went anywhere
high IQ
work for free
lmao, hard pass. Thanks.
Staff it with rich fucks looking for relevence deep in that Musky sphincter and change it to "Department of Getting Eaten". Efficiency accomplished.
These people who get so incredulous about "soft" social sciences, (think critical theory) yet talk about IQ testing like it's Newton's 4^th^ law do not value, or do not understand the science. Even the serious people who defend IQ in good faith, speak of it with qualifications.
What is so attractive about a system to categorize and rank humanity? And what do the people who are attracted to it have in common?

Honestly, most of that headline should be in quotations.
"Elon Musk's" "new department" seeks "super high" IQ "staff" for "unpaid jobs"
Would you do that, Elon? No you would not. And you'd be tweeting unfunny mocking bullshit at someone who did in any other circumstances.
i would consider signing up just to see how much shit i could irreparably fuck up before they notice
Sorry, I need to like, not starve to death.
"If you're good at something, never do it for free."
Earth to Elon: Time is money you rich prick.
Seems like something people would not want to do.
Appointed by President-elect Donald Trump, the panel is tasked with recommending spending cuts, regulatory rollbacks, and agency restructuring by July 4, 2026.
I don't know why all the people who defended Biden wasting two years of the House/Senate are so worried about trump having 2 years of the House/Senate.
According to them no one can get anything accomplished in 2 years, and historically trump won't hold onto both the House and Senate for midterms.
The big difference seems to be Trump's incoming admin isn't waiting till 1/6 to start thinking about stuff, so they've got a big headstart on Biden's admin.
It's going to be real fucking embarrassing for moderates if trump pulls off something they just spent four years claiming was impossible.
The big difference seems to be Trump's incoming admin isn't waiting till 1/6 to start thinking about stuff, so they've got a big headstart on Biden's admin.
You’re right, the appointment announcements so far weren’t a result of thinking.
