Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single
She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.
12-year old kid with Aspergers smarter than Einstein

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

This boy doesn't sound autistic. This is insane though.
The kid is not "smarter" than Einstein.
IQ scores are like money: it only makes a real difference if you're poor. Science has found that after 130, IQ scores are no longer predictive of productive success. There is no real difference in talents between someone of an IQ of 130 and 200, but what does make the difference is persistence and resiliency towards the labors of hard work. Jimmy Carter has an even higher IQ score than this kid, but I wouldn't place significance on Carter as smarter than Einstein. IQ tests are excellent for measuring whether if someone has the neurological capacity to lead a normally functioning life, but only as a modest measure of intelligence.
The kid is brilliant genius. He's Doogie Howser, Jr. He has a brilliant future ahead of him. But don't pay too much attention to his IQ score.
That is because he is a savant. Most savants are "idiot savants" but a very small handful of autistic individuals are autistic savants. One example of the autistic savant is Daniel Tammet, who memorized the number pi to the first 22,514 decimal points and learned to speak an entire foreign language (with native fluency) in a week.
"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
this kid wants to take a run at the big bang, and since the theory is unproven as of yet, I see this as a good platform to advance our theory our understanding of quantum theory. I think this kid has better tools mathematically than einstien ( who's strength was not mathematics), but einstien had a unique way to looking at the universe.
Einstein had a few strokes of luck when it came to proving special relativity. Evidently, he needed some sort of emperical proof of space/time bending, and was going to use an eclipse to do so. However finding a perfect eclipse in his days was difficult and he had to abandon his plans several times and almost didn't get it. In a sense, getting to the guts of this theory requires a few strokes of luck. If this kid is going to disprove modern physics, and the big bang ( which will require disproving the unification of the strong/weak forces) - it'll be a pretty amazing thing.

This kid and others like him are what make me feel like a full-fledged retard. I know a lot of it has to deal more with genetics than anything that his brain has the capacity to be capable of genius work, but this kid would probably treat my advanced economics classes like pre-school addition/subtraction. I'll be living the majority of my life trying to make a decent living and a decent life, but the sky is truely the limit for this kid. I am beyond jealous.
I'm sure we could but you think the powers that be will ever allow that? it's kinda like a cure for cancer. Cancer is big business so don't ever expect a cure but rather expect more and more medicine to where it's manageable and they can still make money off you.search1ng said:

I just don't see the autism. I mean, he talks and answers to Glenn just fine. He stopped talking altogether when he was a baby but clearly can talk again. Then again I don't really understand Asperger's since I have heard far too many different descriptions on what it really is. I think this boy's brain is working at a very accelerated level. Gifted but quirky fits him better.Rogue said:
"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
Something about his mannerism and speaking style, to me, would suggest that he'd have some form of Autism. I can't really place it but it's just the vibe I got from the video. I admired his confidence though, but he probably gets redundant questions all the timeRogue said:
The whole "smarter than Einstein" schlock seemed like an empty title with no weight. Check the comments; most people didn't know wtf he was talking about anyway
It WAS pretty cool how he wrote on windows though; anyone seen A Beautiful Mind? :yes:

He certainly talked animatedly, but having a speech impediment is not within the diagnosis. There is a delay in speech, early in childhood, but then speech develops, especially with speech therapy.
I totally agree, and yes.

It's funny how a brain defect can turn somebody into a super genius.

Off topic, but I feel that I have to chime on this that there's more forces at work to why we haven't cured cancer yet. Some media and started to noticed this with a big article noticing how the rate of finding new drugs have tricked while the rate of discoveries of proteins that can be inhibited or causes cancer have exploded. We other words, in the past 30 years, we learned a ****-ton of how it is caused, but developed almost nothing in prevention or cures. A big reason that is not some conspiracy is how our incentives have developed. Finding causes is much less risky than finding cures.
For the private sector, the result is obvious that they aren't too jumpy on putting money on an all-or-nothing medicine that will either cure or fail (and, of course, the question if they really want to find a cure).
Then there's academia, which have it own perverse incentive issues. When a young researcher who dreams of becoming a tenured professor, the usually path is having a lot of publications, which is done by doing a lot of research with some kind of meaningful results. Also people in charge of funding are incredibly risk averse and highly prefer to take experiments where there's a high chance of useful results. So what type of experiment is most likely to get funded? An incremental experiment that won't find a cure but have a good of finding another interesting protein? Or some research where there's a high chance of failure, but it's success means pay dirt?
So add that academia have been hiring private sector to gain their "efficiency." Even people getting tenure are still pushing to do safer experiments that is likely to get funding. Some government funding cuts... And you get what you have today, a field where we still use the same drugs we discovered in the 70's for chemo.
This is not to say we're completely screwed, but there's a hard road ahead in using our knowledge to find cures.
"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
The whole curing cancer thing does have some fact to it though,
I've got a friend that is a Dr. who has specialized in Oncology and stuff - she works in the private sector and she tells me a lot of her patients are wealthy individuals who are able to actually pay for the very expensive drugs and procedures that normal people just don't have the ability to pay for.

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
