      A lot of you know insane outlier kids (11yo - 22yo). Helping them let go of the whizkid identity will reduce how long they're sentenced to the void when their transition to whizadult inevitably destroys themhttps://twitter.com/tayroga/status/1305966208697749516 …

      In the first Thiel Fellowship batch, the gaggle of ex-whizkids I know best, there's basically a 100% correlation between how obviously outlier they were at 12yo and how long they spent in the void at ~24yo. I'm not sure I know anyone who avoided it entirely

      I think the lesson here is you probably don’t want to be an outlier young in anything that is easily measured. Being great at math at 6 is probably bad as you get tracked quickly, being good at art/coding doesn’t.

          I dont think it matters. If you're obviously 4 sigma capable at 12-16yo in any way high status you get tons of inbound from high status people (billionaires, etc) who remind you how special you are and you're not ready for that and it fucks with you http://nickcammarata.com/writing/empathetic-reappraisal …

          do you know if the top couple people who are best in the world at competitive programming at ~12yo were ever sentenced to the void? I know don't that community and this isn't rhetorical, but I'd expect they were
