doesn’t the idea of a persistent ranking system, and the concern with it imply a belief in intelligence as a static factor? Less Wrong is a diverse community, but I was by and large under the impression that it was biased towards a growth mindset.
I’d just like to point out that a growth mindset is fully compatible with fixed intelligence. Fixed intelligence doesn’t mean that growth is impossible, only that some people can grow faster than others.
