If he's so smart then why can't he walk?

nerve gas

So the only person thinking this is in a wheelchair, can't move, can't clean himself and babbling about aliens and AI ? Makes sense lol

Gee I wonder why

he drank a potion of wisdom which sucked the iq points from his central movement system part of his brain and moved them to the science part.

IQ test shows nothing.
I saw people with IQ less than mine. And they seemed more intelligent.

When Hawking was an undergrad at Oxford he started developing the first symptoms of ALS. He became worried that this was affecting his intelligence, so he took an IQ test, just to be sure.

Fuck off, sci is also for solving probability problems and sharing the college you go to.

>sharing the college you go to
I think you mean pissing on people who didn't go ivy league

I'm fat.

since your parents spoon feed you everything, I'm not surprised

he invested his skill points differently

abnormally low LUK

the fuck is LUK. if it means anything to do with chink culture you are very wrong

Low IQ brainlets detected. This thread is now forbidden to sub-130s.

Underage detected. The entire board is forbidden for you.

IQ means nothing, dedication, luck and wisdom do. The latter you get (maybe) with age. When i was 20 i also thought im the shit.

btfo

This. IQ means nothing.

And I'm not just saying that because of my small IQ

>when i'm finished, i calculate the results manually
>tells me my IQ is schizotypal

you just cant win with this stuff

IQ science is pseudoscience
>but muh genetic correlation
depending on what your definition of intelligence is (basically whatever you're looking for as an indicator if intelligence) you will find different correlation

like how shoe size isn't really correlated to dick size, but dick size and shoe size are both correlated to height

Chad can say this. Chad can shout "loser!!!" when he sees a nerd. Stephen Hawking is a nerd himself. Some jock should give him a wedgie.

According to the movie, his first symptoms were at the start of hid phd at Cambridge

Why don't we estimate intelligence by the number of neurons or synapses in their brain or something?(factoring in different types of neurons)
Are there any other reasons excluding "because it takes too much resources?"

if you're going with just raw numbers of neurons... shouldn't whales be the smartest creatures on earth?

If you're going by how often those neurons get used, as well as how many there are, dolphins should be smarter than us as well, right? Since they sleep with one half of their brain at a time?

And whenever someone has an epileptic seizure they're actually having a 'smart-attack', right?
