Not a chance, especially if the person has better quantitative than verbal skills.

Yea Verily
I don't know about guessing IQ but I can tell if you have something worth saying. If it's about your IQ then I guess it isn't.
No you can't.
The only person I know who can do this is my wife. Why? because she gives the IQ test a few times a week.
I’ve got a rough idea where my IQ is despite not having taken a formal and properly administered IQ test.
Interestingly, I’m pretty sure my percentile standing with respect to IQ roughly corresponds to my percentile standing on the SAT when I took it and and to my percentile standing with regard to earnings.
Coincidence, or not surprising at all (at least as a starting point)?
this by far one of the dumbest thing I've seen on this hellscape of a website

Sounds like grounds for divorce.

I wouldn't get too discouraged, if I were you. IQ isn't everything.

Full disclosure: Like thousand of others in the mid-1980s, I took those tests largely in response to the "Women of Mensa" pictorial that ran in Playboy magazine.
Ha! I love it, I didnt know that was a thing, I'd love to see something equivalent today.
I figured yours out just by reading the title. Believe me, you don't want to know.
no hardloper, I will not train your algorithm with my writing
Americans are obsessed with IQ’s.
No one else gives a sh!t. The rest of the world judge by accomplishments.

No you can't tell a persons IQ just from writing.
Lexical ability is only one of the seven major CHC factors used when calculating a person's intellectual global capacity.
Not just about lexical ability. Within a few paragraphs you can tell if the writer is capable of independent thought and good faith arguments. I think a human can do this better than the ML algorithms that only analyze vocabulary. Good points about the different IQ tests though.
“Pinpoint”?
What about writers where English is not their first language. Just curious if you can still pinpoint their IQ?
You guys are putting stock in Hardloper's claim to "guess" IQ from a few paragraphs?
Can I please direct you to my Patreon account, as well?

I don’t think most people know their own IQ +/- 5 so how do you verify your guess?

Liberals are obsessed with IQ's. This is why they tell others that they are intellectual superiors, and fawn over their associations with university's, etc.
I have seen a notable number of my liberal friends post articles talking about intellectual superiority of liberals. They are the epitome of echo chamber reinforcement.
'loper you should just go through the threads and start labeling them by IQ.

Maybe. Other people can also do the same and we can compare notes.
Fun fact : before I went to Penn my IQ was small, Now it is big.
