 Evolution is probably not a fundamental, but an emergent rule, a phenomenon of scarcity. Structures are self-sustaining by harvesting negentropy (exploiting order) from their environment.
 As order is a limited resource (only exists in pockets of reducibility), systems compete with each other, inhabiting and therefore blocking spacetime for other self-sustaining systems on their level of existence.
 
-On earth, we currently dominate most levels; our intelligence allowed us to build structure and harvest negentropy in regions where no other organism is able to compete.
+On earth, we currently dominate most levels of interest; our intelligence allowed us to build structure and harvest negentropy in regions where no other organism is able to compete.
 
 It is a universal law that entropy is increasing over time. As previously mentioned, it is a unidirectional phenomenon in time. On a low level, we build structure for species-homeostasis by harvesting structure somewhere else;
 it is a limited resource, decreasing over time.

 I am not here to discuss the validity of IQ. It is one of the best researched and most reliable metrics of psychology.
 Although one has to keep in mind, psychometrics is in general a field prone to biases and imprecise measure. Because IQ correlates strongly with some cognitive capabilities, it is used to approximate intelligence.
-However intelligence is far too complex, multi-faceted and individual to even compare among humans in general form, instead IQ tests usually focus on predictors (e.g. pattern-matching, language, math and processing speed) of the so called *g value*, representing general intelligence.
+However intelligence is far too complex, multi-faceted and individual to even compare among humans in general form, instead IQ tests usually focus on predictors (e.g. pattern-matching, language, math and processing speed) of the so called *g factor*, representing general intelligence.
 
 Instead of rambling about its validity I want to focus more about the biases and misrepresentations of IQ scores online.
 Over the decades, the world and jobs became more and more complex. With that, intelligence is assumed by many to be an important resource for success in work and life.

 But in practice, they generally aim to align the IQs of the new test, with the IQ in other tests which were considered valid and highly g-loaded (measuring general intelligence well).
 
 To produce a final IQ score, we let a large test group representing an age group in society, answer the questions, calculate how well they did relatively to the rest (calculate percentiles) and produce IQ scores from the percentiles by calculating how many standard deviations, the percentile was away from the mean.
-Usually one standard deviation equals 15 points (SD15) and from now on we assume this SD if not further specified. So someone who is 2 SD over the mean, has an IQ of 130 (≈ 98 percentile).

 But let's be real, most people in the high ranges seem to either lie about their score or use scores from unscientific sources, unstandardized and inflated in nature.
 
 Either way, it is apparent many humans fail to understand the underlying statistics. There are still reports of people with SD15 scores over 160, just not measurable in any well-standardized manner.
-There are people like Chris Langan, stating 210 IQs without standard deviations, which is hilarious, as its rarity is **magnitudes** over the whole population for SD15.
