Now I'm just honestly disappointed... 130's?!??!
I thought we had a GENIUS on our hands here... I'm surrounded by people with IQs in the 140-150 range all day long and now I have to come here and interact, NO, worse, WASTE TIME, with someone that is a mere 130? Guy, not even MENSA is interested! Jesus.
Please, let's just forget this ever happened, return to the job you were meant for - manager (at most) of your local KFC (or burger king if you think you can handle that).
ps. honestly, how old are you? Because maybe you still have some time to bump it up over 140.
I probably should ignore this, but one time I will respond...
I'm sure you have, I know how smart you are...
I've documented how smart I am:
... but I display sometimes genius level insights

I have tested > 140 IQ twice on some tests but lower (high 120s to 130s) on other tests. I don't have the score from the only formally administered IQ test I received in elementary school. But from what my mom said, I can correlate my SAT scores to an IQ that is roughly the same ballpark around 130, but note I showed up with a hangover to take the SAT, I didn't study for it at all, and I was clearly more accomplished in mental creativity than my best friend who studied for it and scored a 100 points higher than me. I generally don't perform well on tests that attempt to test skills that I am not interested in, such as puzzles that have no purpose. I am a very purpose driven thinker. I want to explore my imagination to solve problems or challenges that are important to me. If I try to motivate myself to become interested in solving puzzles that I am not really interested in by imagining that the ability to untwist their structure in my mind enables me to solve some other problems I am interested in, then my (especially timed) performance increases. What I have noticed is that I have 2 gears. When I am very motivated, I engage the hyperthinking gear, then my IQ is higher. It also seems to correlate with my energy level and my physical health, because I consume a lot more energy in hyperthinking gear. I don't know if any others have experienced this phenomenon?
https://robertlindsay.wordpress.com/2011/12/05/why-you-dont-want-to-be-a-genius/I remembered that my ACT which I took when I was sober (but still didn't study for it) over the summer between high school and college (as it was a requirement for L.S.U.) corresponded to 100 points higher than my SAT, so that was another confirmation that my IQ is in the 130s. I think my "g" is some where between 125 - 135 and I note my verbal scores are significantly lower (just above average in high 80s percentile) than my math (98 - 99+% percentile). But I think when it comes to creativity and the
ability to conceptually abstract a problem or issue, my IQ is higher.
Seriously, you should probably spend more time trying to work with other teams directly - most of the time the things we think others are overlooking are there for a reason
There is a reason I have interacted with the smartest developers on this forum,
including Gmaxwell.
Unfortunately the developers here are not the best. I would prefer to work with the best. They typically are not interested in working on crypto currency, but I will be able to motivate them because I have a project under way which can be a real software company startup.
