I once went looking for where Nimrod became an insult, and the only likely thing I could find was an episode of Looney Toons where Bugs referred to Elmer as "Nimrod, the mighty hunter" in derogatory tone.
I mean I don't know about you but even excluding the empty ones, the median room I walk into doesn't have 50+ people milling about in it.
I think anything above 90th percentile would probably still qualify as being the smartest in the room more often than not. The real question is do we tend to rate that metric too high?
Also true. I guess if you include the individual's room selections I suppose being the smartest in the room becomes as much a proxy for how much you interact with the general public Vs insulated groups of your peers, as it does for intelligence.
Isn't 85 IQ the average black person? Being in the same room as a black person wouldn't be all that rare in America (or even in some parts of Europe, nowadays).
Exactly. And being "suspended" means nothing when you can get a job at another start-up doing exactly the same thing, comprised of all the same jeets who worked for the other contractor that just got "blacklisted," while all the government officials take bribes to look the other way. That's India.
I'm not so sure. Adding random 90-degree angles to a bridge you're constructing in order to pad the construction costs and fees that you can charge for it is some next-level jeeting.
You guys think leftists believe india wouldve been a utopia without the british coming along? Seems most of india still lives in a shit hole not unlike haiti and subsaharan africa.
There's been genetic studies that show Brahmin Indians (aka elites and rulers) share much more genetic code with ancient East Asian and European ancestors than indigenous Indian ancestors. Essentially they were foreigners who came in and took over the region with their super powers of not being retarded, who then set up a strict no-interbreeding system with the castes and continued to rule the area for millennia. By then enough cumulative rule breakers for the inter breeding meant that they ended up with a significant degree of native Indian genetics, then the British came in and supplanted them with the super power of once again being marginally less retarded.
So now globohomo doing the opposite and its irreversible.. transplanting tens of millions of retards into white/east asian countries. To make sure no "smarter" races arises.
I tend to believe the vast majority of the asian world worked that way throughout history, having Caucasian or East Asian rulers. They would either dominate or push out uncivilized tribes to harsher border lands. But over time the browns eventually gain enough numbers to overwhelm the ruling minority in every country. Arabs tried to reverse the decline through White slavery. Jews did it via mixing with Europeans during the diaspora.
We kind of see the tail-ends of the phenomenon in real time with Egypt and Syria which still have affluent ruling classes who are whiter than a lot of the common people.
I hate to ask, but I'm not an engineer. But aside from the retarded turning it makes drivers do. Is a 90 degree bend in a bridge structurally weak at the corner part? or is it just plain ole retarded?
It makes things more complicated, but it isn't inherently weaker.
It was certainly built this way because it was easier to make it strong than a curved bridge.
The reason that it is shit is because there is going to be a pile of vehicles at the bottom where they came off the bridge trying to speed around the turn.
If there’s no support at the bend it would be weaker (I believe). The length difference between the inner and outer bend would definitely make it more unstable.

If Indians were legitimately high IQ, then India wouldn’t be India.
Aren't even the "high IQ" ones just in the 115-120 (midwit) range?
120 isn't midwit range. 120 is often being the smartest one in a room.
Huh.
To blow your mind further, a midwit Nimrod would be a slightly above-average intelligence but extremely cunning and quick hunter.
I once went looking for where Nimrod became an insult, and the only likely thing I could find was an episode of Looney Toons where Bugs referred to Elmer as "Nimrod, the mighty hunter" in derogatory tone.
Yeah... like almost every insult, it's started to see increasing use as "dumb and/or gross person," but it isn't really a synonym for retard.
If you’re in a room of jeets maybe. 120 isn’t even in the top 2% of IQs.
I mean I don't know about you but even excluding the empty ones, the median room I walk into doesn't have 50+ people milling about in it.
I think anything above 90th percentile would probably still qualify as being the smartest in the room more often than not. The real question is do we tend to rate that metric too high?
Depends on the rooms you’re in. In my experience being in a room with an 85 iq is infinitesimally more rare than an 120 iq.
Also true. I guess if you include the individual's room selections I suppose being the smartest in the room becomes as much a proxy for how much you interact with the general public Vs insulated groups of your peers, as it does for intelligence.
Isn't 85 IQ the average black person? Being in the same room as a black person wouldn't be all that rare in America (or even in some parts of Europe, nowadays).
If you’re around 85 iq black people you’re somewhere urban which isn’t a good life choice
Yes. At best that kind of thing suits you for middle management.
I feel even worse about that.
Brushing your teeth in the Ganges is very high IQ mayomonkey.
Imagine how many hundreds of incompetent Karen managers signed off on this.
Every qualified engineer can see its retarded
Apparently not many in India
One Indian bridge has THREE 90degree turns. Imagine the malicious compliance needed to build this abomination.

or sheer incompetence
Is it still incompetence if the incompetent individual is so successful at deliberately monetizing his incompetence?
They're competent at being jeets i.e. scamming

yes....

You don't have to be an engineer
It would be ok for a foot bridge.
Okay but still stupid without a good reason
You guys think leftists believe india wouldve been a utopia without the british coming along? Seems most of india still lives in a shit hole not unlike haiti and subsaharan africa.
They think any non-white people are superior to all white people no matter what, it's one of the most fundamental parts of their religion.
Its weird. Indians, like most of asia, light skinned asians are seen as superior.
White people are the most light skinned people. Hehe.
Whenever white girls or asian girls go to india, they get harassed and molested.
Lighter skinned Indians roleplay as White to get more respect from other Indians.
It's just seething and jealousy, like all ethnic grievances.
I think leftists believe in the eat pray love kind of india

Even leftists hate jeets. Sort of like how even the most "progressive" Euros despise gypsies.
Gypsies are jeets lol
....no wonder they used the British for SO MANY YEARS to repair the railways they had after they left.
Someone took "use the right angle for the turn" far too literally, didn't he?
I don't know what you're talking about, that's exactly how bridges work in Sonic Adventure 2!
Reminds me of when I tried playing Cities Skylines.
The worst part is that to my eye, it's not even 90 degrees, it's like 88 so they couldn't even get that right.
I hate to ask, but I'm not an engineer. But aside from the retarded turning it makes drivers do. Is a 90 degree bend in a bridge structurally weak at the corner part? or is it just plain ole retarded?

How is that a bad thing? It's in India, right?
If there’s no support at the bend it would be weaker (I believe). The length difference between the inner and outer bend would definitely make it more unstable.
It’s horrible for driving and considering its a vehicle bridge….

In fairness it would cut down on speeding.
It really wouldn’t i think. It’d just be a death trap. But I’m that cynical
They'll remove the guardrails for population control. It's genius actually. //s
I would suggest that mediating the India/Pakistan conflict was a major misstep by Trump.
we clearly need millions of them here
Do you want a bridge or not, Saar?
