Yeah but then you have to sit next to smart people instead of fun people or you won't have good tests to copy from!

Maybe just think of it like prison. Hope that helps

Back in the day when school seemed like the rest of your life... Now it seems like I just blinked and it was done.

Women thinking isn't even a real category. They think alike not at all.

Some people simply don't reason it out. Their morals are strictly programmed into them society and upbringing. The complex reasons listed are way more advanced than the thought processes actually taking place. In fact it isn't really a thought process but instead a knee jerk feeling.

They need to make phone pay completely touch less. If the card machine has stupid questions to ask, why cannot I keep my hands Corona free and answer them on my phone?

Virtual feelings mostly, some images. When I start talking dialog to myself I do so having created entire concepts of people with their own minds feelings and even looks. Although their images are blurry. When having internal conversations with these concepts of people I lose almost all focus...

Deniers and skeptics are two separate things. A skeptic doesn't deny the the core theories of AGW.

A believer in what exactly? Climate change is a over inflated term that can mean many things. You didn't believe CO2 contributed to any warming? Or you now believe that contribution is more significant than you originally thought?

Actually he said Man Made Global Warming is a Chinese Hoax. Everyone knows the climate changes!!! Even the ladies!

Better to focus on local deforestation and charity groups instead of giving your money to someone in government abusing the term 'climate change' so that they can give your money away to special interests.

Source pleez. Junk argument and sources award! Are these local rainfall graphs that you are blaming on global temp and co2 changes? https://www.climate.gov/news-features/featured-images/2017-state-climate-global-drought (Wow not much change in droughts globally...

Schizophrenia and schizoid personality disorder are not at all the same thing. All INTP are closet SPDs

Where they looking at Schizoid personality disorder? Just sounds like severe anxiety to me. Why do you care so much?

What about same-sex? Why close that door?!

Is there a country where you can go to school to become a prostitute? It's probably not best as a family run business or a trade that can be passed on to your children so it would seem like schools should exist dfor it.

Well geeze if that's the problem, I'll be your friend! It seems like if money were really a sufficient means of incentive, making it would be better than losing it.

It's an audible book as well for those who are being too productive to sit down and read!

Is that like the 'fake it until you make it' argument? Personally I think showering and brusging is for losers! It's not like habits ever advanced mankind. I got better things to do with my time... I would explain more but I am kind of thinking of taking a nap right now.

A build up of testosterone isn't the cause of stress. Sex reduces preexisting stress just like cigarettes do through adding chemicals to your bloodstream. Not having sex only allows that stress to resurface and not having a non chemical means to manage your stress could result in a dependence on...

Women don't like me, so none of them are looking for hairy nose braids and tattoos on my head to look like hair *sad

Calling racism evil is an oversimplification of the underlying problem. In fact, so many things get categorized as racist even though they don't in any way meet the definition simply because people over simplify the concept and then dump any evil they perceive in the same basket whether or not...

Doesn't objectifying morality always result in utilitarianism?

Fibromyaligia. You are screwed but it's a good excuse to get a massage regularly.

It's common with INTPs. What value is their in emotional validation? They also devalue the importance of consensus to such a degree they must begin to question their own sanity.

No I wouldn't want to change it, to answer the question of the thread. Why would a person want to give up the ability? I think any suffering that comes from 'regulating' oneself is due to a false perception of oneself. The standard has been set too high. A true and objective perception of self...

I think we agree.. . Self-awareness is your capacity for introspection. Self-Perception is the interpretation of what was introspected.

It is the opposite. Buddhists meditate to achieve enlightenment. In reality, they deplete their awareness in an effort to reduce suffering. Suffering is a condition of our awareness. It has nothing to do with the ego as we define ego. They wish to delete the concept itself of 'self'. They are...

Why do people often simplify things into a single cause rather than distribute cause? In other words, all cars involved in the pile up were the cause of the pile up to varying degrees. Some were not paying attention. Some were following too closely. Etc...

You find environments where the 'controlled variables' fit the conditions you need to make an observation and record the results. Einstein theory of relativity wasn't proven until there was an eclipse and light was found to bend around the moon. How light moved through gravity was essential to...

A state gives an impression that it is binary but I don't think it is. I think it is an ability that varies in degree. The most basic form of self-awareness is being able to look at yourself in a mirror and recognize that that is you. To know that when you speak that that is your voice. The next...

Oversimplified Example: So if a person put a bomb in a building and blew it up, what would be the direct cause of the building blowing up? Multiple factors are 1) the bomb, 2) the oxygen required for ignition, 3) the person positioning and triggering the bomb All of these factors have equal...

In a controlled environment. If a test is repeated and the result is 100% all the same then you have direct causation. In the normal environment there are many 'contributing factors' and each factor might have a different degree of impact. When talking about 'the cause', generally the factor...

So self awareness is about questioning things you cannot control and cannot change? I suspect a cog cannot choose to become self aware because a cog cannot even ponder enough to recognize the choice. But if you even do recognize the choice, can you even choose? Can you even become a cog? If you...

It sounds like you are debating on whether you want to watch TV or sit in your thinking chair.... But judging on how you asked the question I think you should watch a little more TV and something really meaningless.

I think the math for spin is the same. The only difference is the physical interpretation of what spin really is. I am not sure that 'superposition' is the right term for how it operates in Bohmian Mechanics but basically the particles wave is what is being measured when measuring spin. By...

But that's an assumption and a very big one. If Bohmian Mechanics is a correct interpretation then the variables that dictate its trajectory are simply hidden. In bohmian mechanics the particles wave interferes with itself causing it to have what looks like a random unpredictable direction but...

Yes, but if you could find a way to measure position and momentum, you would prove the uncertainty principle wrong. This would be a huge push towards bohmian mechanics and away from the Copenhagen interpretation.

Identify limitations. Set limitations. Follow through with those limitations. Also, as an introvert, it is important to find and schedule time for yourself. Treat yourself at least as well as your friends. You wouldnt be flaky by continuing to reschedule and not show up when you have something...

A negative of something cannot exist physically. Just because math can show something doesn't mean it is an actual representation of something that exists in physics. It's still just language. It is just an abstract representation to help us understand a piece of reality. It isn't a direct...

It's an inverted cone in time. It is flat in the section that sits in our time.

Vitamin B, eggs, and water. I'm going do whatever I feel like while I'm young and be dead instead of old.

If you don't have an ego, it cannot be bruised. Pride and hatred of others and of self creates meaning where there is none. Acceptance is understanding. It is knowing the self without having to worry about the prejudices of others. It allows one to be free of the ignorant self.

What is the difference between you and your idea? It seems you are your ideas. Perhaps the real issue is that they don't really even know how to know you.

If electrons all pop in and out of existence in the past, wouldn't you see a light glow slightly before you hit the switch?

... Looks like something a crazy person would write!

The guy should have gotten a diagnosis from a doctor before looking for home remedies and spending 8 months hoping.

Vectors. Everything is a vector through space and/or time.

There isn't a indicator for # of posts read. It really isn't about what you say so much as what you read on the forums that enable you to formulate an educated opinion on which to judge this fourm. I for example have only ever read your posts and have come to the conclusion that this is a...

Capitalism is fine so long as you tax things that impact the environment and impact shared resources. The increased costs will direct consumers to more sustainable products. Setting a culture in combination to capitalism would be the best but replacing capitalism with whatever this "If our...
