First of all in MBTI it is kind of agreed that INTPs or some say INFPs are the most gifted intellectually. By gifted we mean particular type of smarts. Smarts that mean INTPs outperform most types in visible academic tasks and problem solving, as well as handling intellectual problems. This...

The world has now days complex problems, that our parents and our ancesters never faced. Before it was kind of OK to circumvent that. Nowdays our generations don't have the luxury. It produces strain on politics. You are correct, that the fault is not in individuals, but system. System of...

I take a bath.

Recharge my batteries so I have more power.

Generally if I view a human as a programmable robot with some kernel and baseline preprogrammed shit, then no humans just are. They are feed information in various not so ideal circumstances. For instance at 15 most kids were considered adults ready to make a life for themselves and have a...

Yet moral complexity arises from instinct, mothers instinct, aggression, cooperation, defense, empathy, adjusting to groups collective thinking, sharing, play, intimacy, talking, organizing group dynamics spontaneously are all instincts hardwired and many more. So to me even baseline things...

complexity requires time and space and work. Over time there are growth spurts and evolution and devolution constant to and fro and a long process. We humans have infinite capacity for complexity, but we kind of require time for it. We live in a hamster wheel where thinking is for-bitten luxury...

Hate is not evil.

I love Zizek, but when he says I totally agree and so on and so on- I am dead. They guy talks like rabid Duffy Duck.

@Animekitty you do kind of have anime eyes. But you look good. @Cognisant that actually looks kind of cool, how long did it take to grow? Generally for my beard its pretty much first time I grew it this much so I am really just experimenting and learning. I actually also have curly hair when it...

What does lasting mean? I certainly want to do a lot of stuff, but most of it I don't share, because most of it is besides the point, as I cannot be sure I don't get hit by a car tomorrow or die of cancer or something. Like I could say I want to do X, but essentially that belongs to category...

I had the beard cut, but essentially I don't do upkeep so it kind of shows. I kind of like the idea of beard, because I don't have to shave.

I actually did. But I was too lazy to take a photo of my current self and upload it. LOL I just hate the process of uploading photos. But I will upload me now I just got to accumulate enough motivation.

Ok, I understand. Well for me personally creating something just seems fun. I like when I contribute. I like when I feel good. Thats about it. I don't really wish to be atemporal or anything. I really don't have motives beyond what is good. Or what is optimal. I don't see much value in...

What is transcendence anyway? Life is what it is, regardless of what happens say after. To me my brain is here to solve this life. Whether there is something more to stuff is to remain to be seen. If my brain is made for this life, I kind of have no point to break my head over something...

OK I see. Well you came off as super cryptic there, so I kind of interpreted things wrong. But when it comes to complexity we kind of have to be mindful of fact that most people don't have the luxury of taking the time to complex thinking in life. That is also why propaganda is so easy to use...

Well honestly I cannot help you with this stuff. Its kind of what people, and what situations. Its just not always about you, but you talking like people will kill you if you talk complicated "something here stinks". Either you are misinterpreting situations, ergo people actually just annoyed...

Look, in perfect world, no neurological difference should be a problem. Maybe its not. I think autism is always implicitly a complication. Whether its a problem is not always in our control, but usually I find it hit and miss. Depends on situations. Sure they can. Question is would they or do...

OK, but this information here is irrelevant to the functioning of interpersonal real, or optimizing for actual real life interactions. Your IQ is what it is. What you can and cannot do with it is something very important to know. How you look is good to know. But you look different to other...

I can't really tell for sure, but what you might be doing is common mistake. You are projecting your own mind onto others. So you kind of have unreal expectations. Watch this vid and see what you think. This guy kind of explains ....

If you can learn the curriculum alone then you can still be history teacher. Everyone is different. Lots of smart people will shut you down because you need to know your audience. You cannot express random information to random people. Most people think about their own things. You have to talk...

Yes, we kind of always do learn wrong information. There is always some given and take in learning. So learning does mean also correcting for wrongly learned things. Yes, I think what you mean is implicit type of long-term memory.

This I understand. But what you are describing here is experience and learning from it. I fail to see where this links us to God. As for the diagrams you posted or made, I cannot figure out what you mean by them actually. But more or less I tend to agree. In so many words though you already...

also ought consider how long word moral was actually used as tool of people to control other people. Still is. For instance in Roman army morals were equal to corporal punishment. So the word moral has many implication in language which are often confused with meaning. Moral complexity means...

Yes, its current problem. Not all leaders are bad. But it takes one bad leader for Rome to burn if you know what I mean. So we kind of live in a world where it takes few people to fuck things up for many. Despite the ideal democracy, we still are under the spell of this paradigm.

Generally I think INTp in socionics does not correspond to INTP in MBTI. Factually though I did the socionics test again. I tested positive for INTj. I am doomed.

:applause:I honestly did not imagine you being this guy for some reason. I guess subconsciously I just thought you looked like your avatar or something. Nice. Also nice beard. NO homo though.

Its not measuring a single factor yes. Human skills are many. But how do you explain that there are people with IQ 160 and the best they can do is a stick figure. Then you get an autistic kid with IQ less than average doing art work that exceeds skills taught in academics. That is just one...

Nah. I don't follow any traditions. I do whatever I need to do. I hate funerals, weddings, birthdays even so its kind of unusual for me to be traditional. I am kind of like my grandpa, he kind of looked like a gypsy. My eyebrows are getting thicker and thicker. Yeah I tend to think its more of...

That can change any minute now. It depends how we define consciousness. What is it? Can you feel your pinky when you think about it hard? Can you feel your right ear? Can you feel both at the same time. Can you train yourself to feel more? Is thoughts consciousness or emotion? If both are...

I have few looks I suppose, one that attracts people and always makes them ask me for change and cigarettes. Not sure why. The other look is a kind of stone face expression, some people confuse it with thinking, sadness or authority. Its neither. It usually just means I am relaxed and kind of...

That was Nietzsches point. If for instance you seek power what then? You get power what do you do with it?

I cannot drink, and I do already exercise. I will do sports probably. I want to run 50 km and swim and do yoga currently. But I do solitary sports, as team sports are killing me.

I don't know. Everything with sufficient complexity can always be reduced to something simpler. Ergo 1 and 0 digital logic can define the world just as well as some analog computer. But just because the computers today think in 0s and 1s does not mean it corresponds to reality. It does not mean...

The way I see this is, that we kind of have to learn this. Its a continual process. It never ends with "and now you know" you never know, you just kind of learn on and on and adjust to facts, reality and situation, options etc. For me hurting people is wrong. Its kind of general principal. Its...

I am not trying to be contrarian. But there is intellect that IQ simply does not measure. I seriously doubt Da Vinci had IQ 200, not that is its possible to know, but actually we kind of know he was smart, but also worked hard. Hard work means a lot. Another factor is Da Vinci was born in Italy...

I can see your point.

You mean face to face? Well for past years, few. I kind of schized out. Its actually why I bother with this. Its kind of like every-time I interact it feels like I am doing mental gymnastics to appear normal.

Yeah, but lets face it. Those are not unusual or big issues per se. Kind of like most people lose one parent at some point. Being rejected is also not that unusual for males. You don't have to try to be unique. You kind of always were and are. The right thing is hard. Not necessarily because...

I call bullshit on this. I think Jung had lots of things correct. But a lot of things he said or did, were and are kind of hard to verify. For instance the idea of anima and relationship with women is cultural, biased too. Other problem is ubermensch is not I repeat not beyond human...

I don't like always being smart. I cannot talk normal, because people talk about things and way they talk, just does not make sense. INTP stuff sucks. I like being alone, because alone I can be whatever. But when I am with people I have to pretend a lot. I kind of have issues of variety...

Many things that are not practical do. Generally science is just better version of knowledge. Generally speaking I think ideas in philosophy are kind of dick measuring concept often. To me the fundamental stuff is hard to know. We certainly don't actually know. Even atomism was kind of...

Psychologically present is the only moment you can truly be in. If you are in the past its illusion and future is illusion. This stuff kind of confused me too, as many things we do kind of matter over time with planning. Very few things you can do here and now, will impact you as much as...

lol.

That is pretty freaky.

This is dod what I meant its cap flag game, pretty realistic.

I have never been entertained by soccer as watching this now.

Well the rich want wars, yes, but the wars exist, because we people kind of are complicit. We tend to fight wars, out of primal habits. Ergo you tell a 18 year old you MUST fight for your country. Then we shame them and put them in the brig if they don't. So people fight. But there are...

He ain't got the email either though. Which means he cannot recover the thing. To answer your question I think this forum still operates, but pretty sure admins are not actively participating. At least not visibly. They do make updates of the forum. Why this forum still works? Well there is...

Yeah CS is pseudo coop. The amount of time I played coop in CS and got lemons is astounding. I also played capture the flag DOD> I am old time player. Its actually fascinating that I played coop games, and de facto played solo. Then again even in real life people don't seem to coop. I don't get...
