What for? It's all upbringing and connections.

I wanna do cool stuff like program game engines, rocketships, physics and math.

Maybe you should go to college for that, senpai.

I don't have what it takes to really do all that though. The people who do that stuff solve stuff like complex logical riddles in interviews really quickly, while I struggle to solve them at all. Clearly this isn't something I can fix by studying, so I wish I'd be able to change my brain positively like every other muscle, instead of only negatively through mental illness and lack of use.

You get better by practicing. Maybe you should train your problem-solving skills. There are a lot of resources for that.

You have to start somewhere. People aren't just born doing cool stuff they have to learn. Even Beethoven had to learn how to play the piano before he started playing.

Programming is useful if you want to get better at problem solving.
Start with python and write simple scripts. Try to do easy things at first and make more and more complex projects

There is definitely an iq floor to certain tasks a 100 iq person will never be a physicist or even a programmer.

Semax + P21 + anti-inflammatory diet + lots of cardio.

I'm ascending, boys.

Diogenes was the proto-wizard.

Why is it that now, wizards and robots are frowned upon while they used to be revered men of philosophy and sciences in the most successful and prosperous times of Earth?

What happened?
