    IQ scores, in the way they are currently used, are absolutely useless and cannot tell you who is smart and who is not. They tell you who is good at taking tests.

    I highly recommend the podcast series “My Year in Mensa” - it is a nice little story showing that high IQ probably does not account for much.

    To your question - the answer is humility. Be humble and understanding. Everyone has something to offer.




  • No joke, I have been receiving random emails with possibly privileged information from the largest corporation in my country for some 10 years now. It is as if Nokia started copying a random Finn to internal emails.

    It is usually minor but relevant stuff - like invoices, B2B pricing, cargo reports, etc. Really boring. Probably a professional in the field could still make sense of it but for me it’s gibberish.

    Last year I got an invite for their Christmas party, with a request to select a menu option. That was nice of them.

    So, yeah. These things happen. The ethical thing is to just delete the emails.
