    Career for INFP?

    Can I ask? Why the hell do you need to get through 4-year degree before medicine degree? Just to get a student to as much as debt as possible? Every European country admits students as young as 17 to study medicine and there are no issues with that. Why's US different?

    Books

    All Joseph P Farrell books. I guarantee that you will learn a lot, especially about WW2, Nazis, their technology and other stuff uncovered by researchers around the world. Books are heavily referenced thus are not imagination of one person.

    I need intp advice. Urgently.

    The plan: don't get into debt, learn what you enjoy on at least 8/10 scale, try to learn subject that is cool(like technology) and hard(so you won't waste your time and money). Get internships starting with year 1. Tell 'fuck off' to naysayers who say you cannot get one. I did, you study IT adn...

    I feel as if there is an intellectual barrier here.

    Hey, just ask questions. I recently got a gig in software testing. I was so overwhelmed during first day that I thought I'm stupid. But I have a nice person who teaches me the ropes and he assumes a lot of stuff. What I do is dissect his assumptions to smaller parts and then ask him to show how...

    Multiple Choice, Transhumanism

    Personally, I do not trust technology too much. You can see it being abused by elite people in this world and once the remote killing with drones will be very mainstream, the need for soldier(who at least have feelings) will be eliminated. Do not fool yourself that elite people don't understand...

    As an INTP, what is your stance on WWE and WWF wrestling?

    Oh my, it was so fun to watch. Sometimes, there were these horrific moments when Umaga used a chair and hit guys head with it. Or the guy jumps from 6 meters height on another person, that person rolls to some side and the guy who jumped breaks his leg :D Lol. And yeah, Ric Flair is a legend. :)...

    Career advice?

    I suggest, if you have money to spare, to enroll on TreeHouse courses. Very high-quality programming teachers. 25 bucks a month or smth I think. I plowed through many courses that are free but nothing came close to TreeHouse. Quality costs money. I used to download courses from the Internet but...

    How do you know you're INTP?

    Mhm, I have some time today to ponder over my development again... During the year of university in CS program, I did not delve into programming only. What I found is that in most cases, I did not tend to stick with one idea and explore it deeply. I went from one to another, satisfied with...

    I just took a look at BF4 recently.

    You should try Stronghold crusader instead. :D Old but gold. I loved and still love strategy games. They are long to play but there you can engage your imagination in full, plus you are guaranteed to meet INTPs online playing it. I have two skype contacts from the time I played this game and we...

    Symbian rulz. :D I need Android though. I plan to expand my skillset in Android Dev, thus I will probably get it later this year. I don't like iphone because I cant develop apps for it. OK, I can but I see it as a waste of time to learn Objective C and not use it anywhere else. Meh.

    Jobs and salary are for dumb people.

    That's an issue, opr. First of all, it's not your company so you cannot really dictate how it's run too much. Secondly, when choosing where to work, one must take into account where you want to work, how managed you want to be and whether there is enough challenging work. If you have enough work...

    The end is nigh [or: Bitcoin wannabes]

    Bitcoin is a nice idea. In fact, it is an incredible idea. It provides you anonymous way to pay money. Hell, even if it wouldn't be anonymous then it still would be great way to pay for things. There would be no need for central banks anymore and they could function mainly as bullion dealers for...

    Physics vs Biology major
