Boobs & Brains ...

Believe it or not, according to the International High IQ Society, not only do I have boobs but brains too!
Last night, I took a couple of their IQ tests and I was pleasantly surprised by the results. Apparently, my tits aren't the only well developed lobes on me.
I was already aware that I wasn't a moron, the scores I received on my SATs and my GRE proved that. But if this test is anywhere near accurate, then a score of 151 puts me in the 99+ percentile.
I tried both of their tests and got a 151 on each of them. And I did this at the end of a very long day and under the influence of the better part of a bottle of wine...
I had both my sister and a friend give it a try this morning and neither one of them were able to score that high.
My sister didn't do to bad at all. She got a 126. As for my friends score... uhm... well, the less said about that the better.
If you want to give the test a try, then Click Here.
If you do take it, let me know how you did. I'd be interested in your results.
Who knows... Maybe all these years of getting my brains fucked out hasn't left any permanent damage after all...

Travis County Appraisal Protest Result 2024

I’ve been protesting property tax values with Travis County for 30 years. Not only for myself, but back in the 1990s, into the 2000s for my property management and real estate clients as well. And also assisting by providing market information to clients and others who ask for help from our Free CMA page, which I think I first put up in 2005. For 2023, TCAD valued a property I owned in Southwest Austin in Legend Oaks neighborhood at $677k. This was excessively high, by more than $100k, but I was unsuccessful at the ARB Hearing (Arbitration Review Board), despite presenting clear objective data. They did lower it to $651k though, still about $100k too high. So for the first time ever, I filed for a Binding Arbitration hearing, paid the $500 deposit, and hired an appraiser to value the property for me as of Jan 1, 2023. TCAD generally ... Read more

fractal terrain generation

The other day I read an article about how to create fractals using the midpoint displacement algorithm. It's a simple recursive algorithm where you take a square, and split it into 4 smaller squares while displacing the height of the corner where the 4 squares join by a random amount. This process is repeated, creating smaller squares which gradually make a smoother terrain. I spent an hour or two writing a PHP script to make a terrain image using this method. After I got some decent looking greyscale images, I added a color map so I could create colored oceans and mountains. Today I modified my old 3D graph script to generate 3D terrains using a bitmap and elevation map from my new fractal Here is what it looks like: sproutworks.com/artgraph.php?bitmap=image_1296466523.jpg&elvmap=elevation_1296466523.jpg&height=200 I might work on getting a terrain generator running in the iPhone, and rendering it with OpenGL.

Roger Schank Sets Straight Education Curricula-Again

Once again Roger Schank cuts to the chase better than lesser experts in his field of how people learn:

When you think about education, think about this. We have made people so stupid through our absurd system of memorizing nonsense and repeating it back on a multiple choice tests that we have set the stage for FOX News to simply say what it wants to say, and having millions of people believe it, because no one ever taught them how to construct or refute an argument...

...the problem is that school is boring and irrelevant and all the kids know it. They know they will never need algebra, or trigonometry. They know they will never need to balance chemical equations and they know they won't need random historical myths promoted by the school system. When all this stuff was mandated in 1892 it was for a different time and a different kind of student.



My daughter is a top student in a class of 650. She is taking advanced algebra in order to not have to take it at some future time in high school or college when there will be other, more important subjects she wants to put her mind to. She drives herself down that road to her goal regardless of the burdens and problems in the way.

I'm not so lucky--I hate automatic authoritarian rules that require school children to have to master any subject which not only may not be necessary for them at any point in their lives, but for anyone's life. But I am lucky that my daughter will get through this morass and prevail--I only hope it happens without her losing her divine right to question.
