Exordium.
In a lot of articles I've written over a year, I almost never was mentioning the word smart exactly, since the word smart is almost like the word Marat which is my name. And since I dislike pretentiousness in people (unless it's my friends, or for fun, or people I like, or people which are actually good like), and thus I was almost never mentioning the word smart. Except one time once I did an article about IDM, since I needed to use the word smart to defend the cool IDM term which I like, thus I've used the word smart in article about IDM, and I did it all for fairness and IDM music which I like. But I actually know now about me having unique condition really. And thus after all, I've decided I better indeed try to look smart. Thus I glad I look smart.
Since such a huge global stuff going on, I myself obviously tried to look at least slightly smart, to be AI alike, and stuff like. I got World Records at certain computer tech games like. I got majority of wins in my first 1000 chess matches. I have written a lot of stuff about science, literature, chess, politic, quality paradoxes, was able to figure out the thousands years long riddle, came up with scientific theory about every number in fact being composed of infinity by its core. And more. As you may see the topics and intel was elaborate, deep and extensive, and thus I've said a lot of smart stuff really. But, what do you think being like the most solid and real indicator and evaluation of smart stuff by contemporary measures? And, it's IQ tests. IQ tests and certain riddles too. While riddles being kind of more of an old ancient culture stuff, a historical shallow attempt joke alike stuff to evaluate the intellect and wit of people by few words as a joke, than an actual test for intellect.
And just what is the truth have to say about it? Is it actually good like way to measure and figure out intellect of anyone? And, it's actually depends on such stuff like exactly what kind of riddles and IQ tests are being dealt with, since exist different kinds of it, which are mean different stuff really. (By the way. I to omit and do not to discuss in extensive ways the stuff which are often said being intellectual by popular opinion. Since popular opinion consider intellectual are such programs like: Who Wants To Be Millionaire. And tons of other 'intellectual' shows alike with certain quiz time stuff. And I to omit it and do not to discuss it in extensive ways below, because such shows obviously being not intellectual at all and it's do not require extensive explanation. Since it's all about memorized useless knowledge which no one ever need. And to waste time to actually memorize useless knowledge are being stupid. Thus such quiz famous programs are stupid garbage really.)
As it for riddles. A riddles are often differ from usual questions from quiz time shows, since riddles usually do not require a specific memorized knowledge about specific stuff. And such fact alone already mean certain riddles being good like since riddles usually being not about specific knowledge of memorized intel. The riddles I myself heard of, like majority of famous riddles really, are actually being cheat and trick. Since correct answers by logic and truth, about famous riddle which are being said, and correct answers on such riddle are being numerous, while riddle claim correct answer is just one. Thus, such famous riddles are just being cheat and trick usually. While if riddle is in fact was elaborate, got intel which is narrows down correct answers to few or even to just one, and such riddle are quality and indeed can in certain way measure intellect of people. And such quality elaborate riddles are can be not much famous really, but they do exist. I myself got few fun riddles which are not the worst really. Riddles. And just anyway, if a riddle is good like, it's can be an okay way to measure smart intellect of anyone really. While it's obviously does not being the ultimate way to evaluate smart intellect.
As it for IQ tests. I myself did few times IQ tests, and my score was above mediocre. And I did significant amount of IQ tests, and thus I actually know how they may differ by concept and by overall stuff.
Exist certain IQ tests all about just testing memory.
Exist certain IQ test which is require certain knowledge of certain country's history. The stuff alike it indeed was in certain IQ test, and the difference between simple usual 'quiz time show alike' question and such IQ test question, was the fact like IQ test question have to be answered after studying random order of numerous letters, and by repositioning letters in certain correct order to form the word as a correct answer, and such questions obviously does not have anything with IQ tests of course. Since it's mostly deals with specific knowledge stuff. While random letters in disarray to reposition into order to form actual words, and it's not much intellectually challenging to do really, as far as you know the word really is exist. And such opinion as I have about such kind of questions being unfit for test of intellect, share a lot of IQ tests too really. Since usually IQ tests being about other stuff, which are does not include answering questions which are about specific intel knowledge.
Exist certain IQ tests which are being most usual and numerous really, and it's are tests questions about coherency of figures, correct order, and creating a coherent logical chain out of stuff you have to deal with, which are usually in the form of figures and/or numbers. And it's the stuff which is indeed can evaluate your specific qualities of intellect, since it's actually deals with spotting tricky patterns and order by creating certain logical chain and applying it to answer questions and tasks. And exactly such kind of IQ tests, can be an okay way to measure smart intellect of anyone really. While it's obviously does not being the ultimate way to evaluate smart intellect. (I to say by the way additional stuff about IQ tests, about IQ tests questions which are most hardest and usually last in test. And, such hard IQ tests questions are easier to figure out once you did similar IQ tests time ago. Because once you did similar IQ tests time ago, you conceive and know how the stuff is meant to be figured out due to experience, and thus it is a way more easier to figure out hard IQ questions).
And just in the end, all in all, the ultimate way to evaluate smart intellect, is to read all articles of this site This, and if you have read it all, and understood it all, and got it all, it's mean you being smart very much.
Afterword.
I myself actually consider like I ain't being very smart at everything after all. I actually never was much good like at multiplying or dividing numerous digits numbers. I do not have very good like memory. Neither I being erudite. Neither I have a lot of school book knowledge really. But, the stuff at which I being really smart at, is analysis. Thus I able to notice a mistake, a fault, a lie, about anything. I able to notice good like qualities too obviously. I good like at disassembling stuff thoroughly throughout all levels and layers to its core, and to make a correct evaluation, and a total conceiving of mechanic, whatever it is. And thus I smart exactly at this.
A brain of people itself seems kind of like a clay, or better to say like a hot melting steel, which is being molded throughout whole life. And it's continue to develop all the time like. While occasionally, certain rare brain of certain rare people, indeed can have certain kind of talent and anomaly alike stuff. Like for example exist a real calculator head people which are able to say answer correctly about numerous digits numbers being multiplied by another numerous digits numbers, and it's like a miracle really. Kind of seems like not the most useful talent or miracle which anyone can have, but it's really unique and it's exist, such calculator brains. All other brains seems about same really. Which is mean, on the condition you got quality intel, after reading all of this site, you being smart too. Being smart are cool. Being smart are useful. And, contrary to famous widespread opinion as if all smart being sly and lie, the real truth actually is, being smart are truth and wise and it's like best virtue. Be smart.
