  • Ah, you just did it. I will give you some time to edit. Let me know when you are done.

    Hey, sorry, I'm an idiot.

    You don't seem like the kind of guy that's particularly bothered by someone like me immersing themselves in impetuousness, but I feel bad about being a deconstructive idiot and wanted to make amends.

    Did I mention I'm an idiot, because I'm an idiot. I don't even know the definition of idiot. Okay I'm gone now.

    There is in the middle a slightly different section, in particular a climax which is a cool theme. Also, this was more about experimenting with more abrupt chord/scale changes than I had done before. I was just wondering about any comments/criticism you may have, with regards to the piece mainly (I played and wrote it). You could listen passively, I don't mind. But as I said, I'm particularly interested in what you think of the ending (and that it ends in a scale that barely appears in the piece, abruptly).

    AA: well, when did you see that "Oh, this has momentum, it could get big" as opposed to stopping somewhere near the other ask threads?
    Architect
    Sounds nice. Not sure what you're looking for, on the playing, or the piece assuming you wrote it? I spot checked and it seemed like you've got the same idea going on through the whole piece. Wouldn't hurt to spice it up a bit, put in a diversionary different idea in the middle, then come back to the main at the end.

    AA thread: blowing up? Not sure what you mean, in terms of number of posts? It's been pretty steady except for last year where it went crazy.
    Ah Archie down to the last post. You wrote the tech post very neutrally, but it's very very positive!
    Re estj and es pushiness I recall the pm, yes they can't be blamed that they didn't evolve, but they're still annoying as fuck.

    Just like psychopaths can't help they were born that way.

    Lol

    Fusion wasn't my specialty, but without running calculations I don't see why it's theoretically impossible. I'd first look at the compression ratio of an engine like this, and off the bat I'd be willing to be that the contribution of the compression would be peanuts compared to where you're trying to get. Seems unlikely but I guess we'll find out.

    And no cheating! This should have gone into the AA thread :)

    Um, you asked a question after I go to bed and get excited it it isn't answered yet? I do have to sleep sometimes :0
    peoplesuck
    IDK if your ask architect thread is still being seen but i asked a ? and would appreciate an answer ;p
    Architect
    Yes, I've heard that many times before, but it's based on a shallow and narrow view of a person. I channel a particular part of myself here - namely Ti, which is a judging function. Secondly I learned a dry, declarative writing style from years of writing emails in an engineering environment. Finally, I project a persona with my Avatar and such. So basically it would be surprising if you didn't think I was an INTJ.
    Architect
    My approach is probably partly motivated by Psychohistory, though I'm not as inspired by the books (and idea) as much as many.

    "For the purposes of not looking like a complete asshole, thanks for the answer"

    What do you mean by this?
    nexion
    For the purposes of not looking like a complete asshole, thanks for the answer (even if it looks more like you just reiterated the text surrounding the question rather than answering the question itself). For a long time I have preferred to think of types entirely in functional stacking rather than alignment in the four dichotomies (although maybe there is something to them both in the MBTI model). Speaking of which, I should go find out how functions generally manifest in each place.

    No problem with PM / VM chatter, any other queries I have I shall direct to the thread. And I shall have more queries assuming my vestigial interest in the subject remains after a few days.
    nexion
    Heh, you answered my question but seemed to have ignored my last request. Clever with the symmetry there.
    Architect
    I really prefer the public thread, it cuts down on the amount of PM's I get. I'll respond to this one but don't make a habit of it.

    J/P has a very special place in MBTI because of that property. So does E/I, because notice the functions are simply the other preferences with an E or an I attached. This doesn't take away from their reality. The point is simply (correctly) made that people prefer closure (or openness) in different ways.
    nexion
    I didn't post this in your thread because I really dislike asking people specific questions in a public thread. For one, it feels like what I am saying is lessened in relevancy to my interlocutor since his attention is also captured by the others who speak in that thread, and for two, it makes finding the conversation much more difficult for meditation purposes. Obviously, for the second purpose, PM is even more preferable, but I am trying to comply with your request that questions and responses be public. At least with visitor messages others can see them.

    Also, I find it interesting that you think I write like an INTJ. One other person thought similarly years back. I mostly disregarded her conclusions despite acknowledging her reasoning and other observations as being entirely spot on.

    Oh, and could you post your response on my own profile, please.
    nexion
    The reason I haven't responded to your last post directed at me in your thread is, well... merely because I don't have anything to say about it.

    However, there is a somewhat-related MBTI question I wanted to ask concerning the nature of J vs P. My curiosity was piqued when in this you said 'P/J just refers to the first extraverted function you have.' That makes the entire dichotomy seem more like something which does not really express itself for its own sake, but is merely nomenclature to help describe how other things do. So the question is this: How exactly does the J / P dichotomy manifest itself in the context of the gestalt of type?
    Architect
    Actually Ti "achieves" as much as Te, but differently. Te achievement is (sometimes) more obvious than Ti based achievement. I'd rather say that Ti+Ne has a hard time getting traction in the "real world", compared to say Ti+Se (ISTP).

    It's good. There isn't an eBook variation available and I don't want to collect another book, so I put a request into my library to get a copy.

    Around 1:04, during his summary, he has a validation for my theory. In there he says that for different individuals it takes different amounts of stimulation to activate a region. My theory is that type ultimately traces to data flow in the brain, and people can handle stimulation to differing degrees. Namely, N's and I's have a lower tolerance for sensory stimulation than S's and E's. Likewise for F's.

    Not really groundbreaking, it's a fairly obvious observation from how people operate.

    The problem with it looks like you have a hammer and you're looking for a nail to use it on. Consciousness is, it is in a deterministic state at every moment, from both the personal and external perspective. I don't see any QM in that.
    Base groove
    What if ... consciousness itself is the wave function? The combination of P and J waves. When oscillating, the psychic mind doesn't occupy any single energy state but all energy states. Interaction can be as simple as any conscious activity, which defines the collapse. Until interaction occurs, the mind is all types. Interaction occurs at every moment of course but time might be a 3 dimensional concept where there are moments in between moments.

    "Yes, it was primarily an analysis, but not...so..."narrow?" er. yeah"

    Correct, a likely synthesis between my primary functions to analyze a situation by incorporating disparate elements, namely "Flow" and "Type", ISTJ and INTP.
    Architect
    OK a lambda function, which is an anonymous (unnamed) function.

    I was just doing an edit on that post, but interesting as I would have characterized it as more analysis (Ti) than Ne. But who knows, I use these tags to analyze things but don't see reality in those terms, to me I'm just figuring some stuff out.
    λ (meta-function relation programming?)

    I just meant that you garnered a **** load of Ne in that last post of yours (the one you're working on right now)
    Architect
    Good point, I like what you said on the previous post. Don't feel like you can't add commentary to AA either, as long as it's relatively contained I have no problem with that.

    But what are you referring to when you say I went "full λ"?
    Sigh, I really hate posting things on your wall/threads that aren't a question and are just an end in themselves, but I just wanted to say one more thing

    heheh

    "deconstructive analysis."

    don't get me wrong, I agree with you 100%

    I just wanted to point out the "beauty" in your words ("beauty," is not sarcastic, just a point of reference that I see)

    If you look at the syntax of the word "analysis," the prefix "ana-" is to "move upward," the suffix "-lysis," is to destroy. So therefore "analysis," is "upward destruction." Now "deconstructive analysis," would be "the breaking down of upward destruction" (Specfically the Ti > Te definition of this)

    This only gets better when you give it to the INTP, Specifically, the upward/expansive movement of the auxiliary Ne via the dom Ti; So in the pure denotations of "deconstructive analysis," INTPs are..."Deconstructive Analyzers."



    Fucking beautiful :cool:
