The centerpiece stat is a self-own: she cites a 35-year study where 12.3% of 677 gifted kids reached "eminence" (full professor, Fortune 500 exec, federal judge) as proof the category is a lie. The general-population base rate for outcomes that rarefied is far worse, much closer to zero than double digit percentage. 12.3% is the selection mechanism working spectacularly.
最核心的那个统计数据反而是在自打脸：她引用了一项为期 35 年的研究，称在 677 名 gifted kids（天才儿童）中有 12.3% 达到了“eminence”（杰出地位：full professor、Fortune 500 exec、federal judge），并把这当作“gifted”这个类别是个谎言的证据。可对普通人群来说，这种极其稀有结果的基准发生率要低得多，更接近于零，而不是两位数百分比。12.3% 恰恰说明这种筛选机制发挥了惊人的作用。
The community note clearly specifies the writer Katie Arnold-Ratliff is the one whose understanding of gifted is inherently flawed Stop making it cool for writers to in-group signal with lies
那条 community note（社区注释）已经明确说明，真正对 gifted（天才）概念存在根本性误解的人，是作者 Katie Arnold-Ratliff。别再把靠谎言进行圈内身份信号传递，包装成一种很酷的事了。
Gavin Newsom came for a @garryslist event at YC and we were proud to talk little tech, YIMBY, how to stop the the asset seizure tax, and how to keep California's innovation wave going while making sure things work for every Californian. Thank you @GavinNewsom
