"look at this 0.2 sigma diff! ignore the fact that there's a 2 sigma difference with genpop tho lol" this woman has done more damage to data science than almost anyone that's not a fascist leader

literally talked about the big diff from population in the next tweets, you're deliberately ignoring context so you can make fun of me. this is bad and you should feel bad.

I just cannot imaging reacting to these numbers with anything other than “no gender difference is visible in this data”

there's a small difference, 2-3 point difference is mildly interesting to me
IQ difference of 2 to 3 is not really statistically significant, it'll be almost impossible to find a difference in capacity of people with that small difference.

it is statistically significant given the sample size. it wouldn't be significant on most smaller sample sizes that are more common in academic research though, you might be calibrated on that.

Honestly, I do find it a bit intriguing that they're so close despite your male and female respondants being (IIRC) largely drawn from different websites.

but all of your numbers are more than 20 points off from the actual average. you cant draw any conclusions from such an incredibly biased sampling method lol.
