I love it when non-Africans think our continent is a Tarzan cartoon with free food everywhere. FFS the pygmies specifically adapted to be smaller because there’s almost nothing to eat in the rainforest, so their bodies changed to require less food.

With the exception of the Pygmies and Bushmen our livelihood has almost always been agriculture.

>> No.15580631

Not actually true about the pygmies at least not entirely.
There's this interaction betwen body size and the immune system so given the shear level of bacterial challenge they're under they evolved to that optimal range, other forest populations seemingly have similarish adaptations.

Having a big brain doesn't mean you're smart. Simple as. Even Neanderthals had bigger brains than us and they were not smarter than us. It just doesn't matter as much as some might think. The biggest brain on record is from a mentally retarded guy and on the other hand, Einstein's brain was below average.
You will notice even on the map that England, the most accomplished country in Europe is smaller. Japan, the most accomplished country in Asia is smaller. Even South India, better developed than north India, is smaller. Horn of Africa is smaller etc. Jews have smaller brains on average yet they are still the smartest on average. I could go on but you get the point.
The correlation between brain size and IQ is very weak (0.3) and is dishonestly used only by pseuds. In any field except for self-publishing IQ-jerking retards like Lynn and co, such a statistic would be thrown in the trash. But thats's what their entire life is built upon, so obviously they can't do that. And even that weak correlation is almost entirely held up by the dichotomy of the big brain big IQ Asian/White and small brain small IQ Sub-saharan African. Otherwise, brain size is not predictive of intelligence.
What matters in reality is brain structure and neuron density, not brain size. Even some animals have bigger brains than us, but again, it's not the size that matters, otherwise sperm whales or Neanderthals would be apex predators not Humans.

Genetics. ACTN3 gene is responsible for the types of muscle you have. Populations with low muscle mass just have slow twitch muscles, which means they are built for Endurance as opposed to strength. Kenyans Indians etc are that. Strength muscles are different from Endurance muscles. East Africans have the highest rate of the C variant of the gene, which means they are the most deficient in the strength related muscle genes. West Africans have the highest amount of the T variant, which means they are the highest in that.

the sneeds will germinate, they will lay practically dormant and grow only ever so slowly during the cold season and if no frosts kill them they will grow fine in the spring, even slightly better than if they had been planted in the spring.

no they wont, not in northern europe anyway. though some will below 3 or even 2 degrees i've seen it happen, they don't survive though. fungal issues due to the weakened defenses and time when they are vulnerable as seedlings. or being eaten by very hungry insects or animals who dig for roots tubers and sprouts, and of course just being killed by a frost or layer of snow which is guaranteed in cold areas. you have now pissed some or maybe all of your seedstock up against the wall, barely have enough for a dozen loaves.
and having a couple warm days doesn't help. you'd need 5, or ideally a whole week where the temps aren't so harsh. otherwise with the film and hormones washed off the seeds are eaten by microbial life. not above 3 all the time, but just not so harsh. that'd never happen in a northern european winter though. central europe easily, but see my previous points.
seeds can sprout during winter, but they have evolved to avoid it. the anti sprouting hormone is there for a good reason.
