Do you know anything about fuzzy logic? Is it good or just a meme?

It's only a meme.
>>7694528
its good for what its good at
>>7694538
you are stupid
>>7694655
Only sorta
>>7694655
Stupidity is a meme

Multiple intelligences is actually a pretty good idea, but it seems to be spoiled by the intelligences that people pick.

If not at all supported by any research and contradicting a lot of research means something is a good idea then sure

To be clear, I don't deny the existence of a g factor. As a neuroscientist, I suspect that it has a very interesting neurobiological root - but I also suspect that there are a numbre of other statistical factors that correlate well with performance on different mental tasks (along with g to varying degrees.)
Of coure to be honest I'm not an expert on psychometrics. If there is a psychometrician reading this, feel free to enlighten us.

If everyone is intelligent on something, doesn't that mean everyone is stupid on most things?

I messed around with the idea of building a ternary computer a while ago, but it was very difficult to build logic circuits and memory without using many more transistors than the equivalent binary circuits. There are probably much cleverer designers than myself out there, but I couldn't come up with anything that was nearly as efficient on a per-transistor basis as with binary circuits. In the case of memory, for example, storing with 3-value variables means you can store like 1.5 times more data per "trit" (ternary bit), but each memory cell requires 3 times as many transistors. It might be worth using in some very specialized situations.
It's useful for taking a discrete state machine and trivially making it continuous.
