That'd be very amusing, since I'm not white. But no, it just happens to be fairly well documented that some people run faster hardware than others for a wide variety of nature and nurture reasons. They also run better or worse neural networks on that hardware, which can be educated, but there's no replacement for displacement. | ||

The point was not about your skin colour but your ideology - "some people are just better because nature". To put your example in different terms - I don't have the physique of an olympic athlete, so I'll never be that fast or strong, but going to the gym absolutely improves on what I have already. I don't have to just live with whatever nature handed to me. | ||

Plenty of white supremecists and their supporters are not white. Plenty are, and say they aren't. > it just happens to be fairly well documented that some people run faster hardware than others for a wide variety of nature and nurture reasons. Vague statements like that are unfalsifiable. Of course there are variations in performance - that's absolutely undeniable; mostly likely I type faster or slower than you do. The questions are, how big are those variations and how much are they dependent on what the person is conceived with biologically. If you want to claim anything, you need to be much more specific about those issues. | ||
