I love how HN always floats up the answers to questions that were in my mind, without occupying my mind.
I, too, was reading about the new Epstein files, wondering what text artifact was causing things to look like that.
Same here. I did notice what I think was an actual error on someone's part, there was a chart in the files comparing black to white IQ distributions, and well, just look at it:

Something clearly went wrong in the process.
Me too. I first assumced it was an OCR error, then remembered they were emails and wouldn't need to go through OCR. Then I thought that the US Government is exactly the kind of place to print out millions of emails only to scan them back in again.
I'm glad to know the real reason!
I just want to add that I would expect the exact same thing from the German government. Glad to see we're not all that different
