How different does sport look if all the mangers were autist?
I was recently listening to a podcast in which an ex professional football player talked about the politics that go on behind the scenes.
He said a lot of what determines if you are a "good" player beyond the fundamentals is akin to astrology or colloquially known as the eye test.
At one point he said "You could be the most talented midfielder in the country but because of manager bias, your reputation and other external factors you will never reach the higher levels."
This strikes me as highly inefficient and got me to thinking about the types of people that become coaches, scouts and managers.
This is an assumption but the types of people that become football staff are different from the people who become engineers. People who become engineers may have interest in the sport but they often choose jobs more explicitly built for their way of thinking.
What would sports look like if it was run by the STEM type? I'm mainly talking about basketball and football because they seem to have the highest degrees of freedom.
Will these sports look completely different when the STEM guys get to them? How long will it take for the STEM guys to influence sport? 10 years? 20 Years? 50 Years?
I think hyper optimised basketball contains two types of players. Big men and three shooters. The big men try to stop the shooter from shooting threes. There will be no more dunks or two pointers.
I understand this is kinda like the concept of Moneyball. I never watched it tho.

Disclaimer: I am not a creationist.
I've had my doubts about evolution as it is presented for a while now. It seems to me that natural selection has become a semantic stop sign.
Reading the comments it seems you are receiving quite a lot of push back. It seems the main point of contention is the word "tautological". If you really care about spreading your ideas I suggest you taboo the word tautological and try again.
Really think over your ideas and try to distil your thinking into an undeniable argument.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to potentially defend against these attacks?
I could see regular people finding a way to get their hands on this in the far future. It would be nice to start preparing now.

Assuming you're correct do you think schools will still exist in the near/far future?
Optus the burdened. I don't see why a hedonist would chose anything else. I would turn my tap water into gold and sell it. The vault would be extremely useful. You can summon a weapon, use it on someone and then disappear it. You could also store all your cars, helicopters, jets and boats in the vault so no worry of theft or vandalism.
Lux Divine Watchmaker is amazing but no sex is a deal breaker.
Why would anyone chose Quet? You would have to be so angry at the world to want to fight disciples you've never met.
Ah, fixing my sleeping pattern at 65 was quite the journey, but I'm proud to say I've finally cracked the code. Firstly, I realized the importance of establishing a consistent bedtime routine. I started winding down an hour before bed, turning off screens, dimming the lights, and enjoying a calming activity like reading or listening to soft music. This signaled to my body that it was time to prepare for sleep.
Secondly, I made my sleep environment conducive to rest. I invested in a comfortable mattress and pillows, ensured the room was dark and quiet, and adjusted the temperature to a cool, comfortable level. Creating a tranquil sleep sanctuary helped me drift off more easily and stay asleep throughout the night.
Thirdly, I prioritized relaxation techniques to quiet my mind before bedtime. I practiced deep breathing exercises, meditation, and gentle stretching to release tension and promote relaxation. Letting go of the day's stresses and worries allowed me to transition into sleep more peacefully.
Lastly, I stayed consistent with my sleep schedule, even on weekends. I set a regular bedtime and wake-up time, avoiding naps during the day to regulate my body's internal clock. Over time, this consistency helped train my body to fall asleep and wake up at the same times each day, leading to a more restful and rejuvenating sleep.

Can you please tell me the names of these autistic genetic forums? I've recently picked up an interest in genetics and behaviour in different groups of people.

Is it possible to go from sensitive to not so sensitive?
Being so sensitive does not allow you to function as well as other people. Things that get people down for a day, gets you down for weeks or even months.
If it's not possible to turn off high sensitivity then how does one use their high sensitivity for gain?
According to random youtube videos and quora posts, high sensitivity is a "superpower" which makes you creative and gives you the ability to "read" people.
Does this mean if someone who's sensitive starts creative endeavours they will be better than average?

I'm glad that facepulls helped you with rounded shoulders as I'm trying to do that myself. Can you give more details? How long did it take you to get rid of rounded shoulders? What weights for the facepulls allowed you to achieve this?
When will women overtake men in soccer ability?
So right now there is no competition between men and women when it comes to soccer. There are various stories of high school boys annihilating their respective national pro women team. Just type in women's football/soccer compilation and you will see professional female footballers make mistakes that even half decent teenage boys wouldn't make.
However, who's to say this won't change in the far (/near?) future ?
First of all, women's football has only become a sport that has gained serious attention in the last couple of years. I'm sure men were not that good when football was first invented. It will take time for the most talented of female footballers to be found.
Secondly, football is as much as a game of skill and teamwork as a game of strength and speed. Men have an obvious inherent advantage when it comes to strength and speed and I don't see that gap closing anytime soon. But skill and teamwork is something that we don't really understand to the same degree as strength and speed. Strength and speed are easy to measure and they have an almost objective quality to them. Skill and teamwork however, are more nuanced abilities, more hard to measure, more "I know it when I see" type of ability.
My main argument here is that women have advantage over men in terms of social skills mainly because women find people endlessly fascinating. I think their ability to read body language and facial expressions far surpasses men. So much so that I think most men don't even realise how much better they are in this regard. It's akin to a 100 IQ person interacting with a 150 IQ person. The 100 IQ person might think the 150IQ person is a bit weird and may even recognise that the person is smart through socially sanctioned indicators of intelligence such as prestigious university, hard degree, cognitively demanding job. But the 100IQ person doesn't really grasp how vast the inner world of the 150IQ person is compared to theirs. The 100IQ person doesn't grasp how much more information the 150 IQ person is collecting and processing.
Anyway, I believe that women's interest in people could mean their ability to coordinate in soccer is much higher than men's. I think given enough time women will be passing the ball in way we have only seen in glimpses on the men's side. I believe that Barcelona's tiki taka will become the standard template of play for women's football in the future. It might be so good that they will be able to beat men despite the strength and speed gap.
