That might be true! Maybe my main takeaway from those articles is that to be a good math/science historian, you have to be good at history (by reading a bunch of primary sources) and good at math/science (like be able to solve concrete problems), and that there are a bunch of people who only know one of the things, and only a few that know both.

What is the tradeoff between having a baby now and waiting a few years? Like if I have a baby now with the current technology, how many IQ points, risk of Alzheimer or depression etc. will the baby miss out on if it was instead born in five years?
Also, how is similar technology but for adults coming along? Do you think it the case that it doesn't really matter when you have kids because you can do gene therapy (or something like that) to adults that will give the same benefits?
