I wonder if Michael has figured out Neural Efficiency yet?

Very vague How What do u do Examples

Wtf

Double decision game.

I think it would be better stated "farming brains for biopower"

[@kravenofspider]

Didn't research show that a person only improves in the task and it doesn't help cognition? Also, if the speaker is correct, then these guys should be showing us how they have become polymaths in later life.
