IQ psychologists figured out what we saw instantly from the graphs: performance stops at 1 STD (& reverses in top 1%!) But they still can't get it's a negative measure, one of unintelligence, not a positive one. The IQ test,too ludic, doesn't measure cognitive abilities . https://t.co/MkDskiL9Tr — PolitiTweet.org

Things are worse for IQ & heredity: if diabetes or myopia are uncontroversially detected (tiny false positive), IQ tests vary by 1 standard deviation FOR THE SAME individual. — PolitiTweet.org

@arthurzqx That A sin[T] + B cos[T] becomes a sinusoid function is trivial. But the challenge as @alexbilz also found, has been expressing f in these terms unless asymptotically. — PolitiTweet.org

@jaffer_ali1 Bad example because Churchill kept fighting Chamberlain, Halifax, and others and was said to be the first to see Hitler for what he was. Actually this quote must be out of context because Churchill was very suspicious of Hitler early on. — PolitiTweet.org

@arthurzqx Here is the probability transformation. Programmed it, sort of. THe problem is that I can't reduce to Sin[x+\Delta]+C, I get a sum of Sine or Product of something. C * Sin[T/2] Sin[(1 + T)/2] https://t.co/Vc2yG5ZAW5 — PolitiTweet.org

2) Actually (h/t @arthurzqx) if can can express f as a Sine function, which we almost can, then the Sin of a uniform distribution is ~scaled ArcSin. I am too lazy today to work on an analytical fit. https://t.co/Uust4UESci — PolitiTweet.org

@arthurzqx @octonion I can't ignore the Cot etc. terms, but close enough. If so can pull the exact distribution. https://t.co/Tof9sPjcrI — PolitiTweet.org
