Out of curiosity: because rationalists are supposed to win, are we (on average) below our respective national averages for things which are obviously bad (the low hanging fruits)?
In other words, are there statistics somewhere on rationalist or LessWrong fitness/weight, smoking/drinking, credit car debt, etc.?
I'd be curious to know how well the higher-level training effects these common failure modes.
Have you looked into the census numbers?
I've skimmed them, but I don't remember seeing these kinds of statistics. I'll take another look though. Thanks.
