No, but I am saying that there are differences in population-level intelligence distributions across groups. The data is pretty clear on this.

I'm not sure I understand the distinction. If there are differences in 'population-level' intelligence, then some populations are less intelligent, correct?

If some populations are less intelligent, then it is OK to not hire them in the tech industry.

In your opinion, how do you tell the less intelligent populations from the more intelligent populations?

If you use population-level characteristics to make blanket individual-level determinations, you are an idiot.

You can't use statements about populations to draw inferences about individuals - and we hire individuals, not populations. Your entire framing of this issue is 100% backwards.
