What does this idea even mean? Since humans determine what it means to be obsolete then wouldn't it be impossible unless all humans didn't exist? Unless your suggesting that human subjective value can be rendered obsolete by a third party. Sounds like mystical or religious thinking, but maybe...

I see a rise in specialty manufacturing in the near future perhaps. Mass manufacturing of electronics and other goods has been globalized to the point of being obsolete to make and will increasing be so with automation. But some people still want things can only be done through local experts who...

Yeah also a lot of these theories from 1500 onward are just rehashed concepts from antiquity."Cartesian axioms" is just Aristotle 2.0 mixed in with some sub-developed ideas about science. Descartes was like the first academic philosopher, he studied ideas from the past and framed them in his own...

ENFP

Have fun.

I recommend the book The Theory of Education in the United States by Albert Jay Nock. It came out in 1932 right after egalitarian schooling became the norm in the US(and world). Nock's discusses how political democracy is one of the primary reasons to blame for our modern schooling problems.

This...I believe the further you get into understanding the cross sections of history between philosophy, anthropology, psychology, and political economy you realize it's all culturally relative. But this doesn't suggest that criticism is not important, rather the exact opposite.

I think the best thing for an INTP or INFP to do is some type of work that is straightforward, bearable, and do extreme saving(more than half of income). Learn to invest over time if you want to increase your capital, practice anti-consumerism or simple living and then work can become just a...

This might have more to do with the Kantian idea of knowledge being independent of sensory information and his methodology of apriorism. Kant was probably a INTP, but his ideas are prevalent throughout the world as they manifest themselves in how we understand philosophy and reality itself...

Attreyu you seem like a INTP. Don't mind the dogmatic "intps don't like physical activity". You remind me of myself especially when you mention the connection of brain and body intellect. Have you considered craftsmanship? I think there is a close symbiosis and holistic thinking when focusing on...

Fuck programming, it's like the go-to nowadays even for folks who won't like it's jobs aspects. Keep on with the music since you enjoy it. Learn to build/repair instruments as a way to make money.

INFP

Pretty good. What about other function pairs?

I agree. From reading descriptions and the functions they can seem very similar. And a INTP might feel like a ENTP one day depending on their mood, interest, and vice versa. I really think though it just comes down to if you see yourself as an introvert or extrovert. Reckful had a good post...

What job do you have Absurdity?

Interesting interview by possible INTP regarding nature of work. He did his PhD in Political Philosophy couldn't land a teaching job then tried working in a think tank, finally ended being a motorcycle mechanic: http://www.cc.com/video-clips/neths8/the-colbert-report-matthew-crawford

Yeah NFP for sure, still don't know about E vs I. How would you distinguish between ENFP vs INFP. His biography doesn't seems very introverted in nature and gives off more of Ne dominant vibe(I know you don't care for CF's much).

Passive income is the ideal. Any good niche ideas? What about intpjobs.com or intpcareers.com?

NP is possible. But someone explain why a I rather than E? Or F rather than T?

What about "countries"? I don't see any borders from space.

Everyone can/is a hypocrite and follows based on type. I think this question is important though. One solution could be to limit the Ti-Fe judgements to your "sphere of influence" and not let it go beyond what you can control. Sort of what the stoics, epicureans, and buddhists have talked...

Exactly, so what's the problem with material being distributed freely? The market decides your guys' stuff is better so they are willing will to pay for a proprietary version. Your designs is more than the code but the service you provide. Now these competitors need to step up their game and...

How do we get out...What's your insight?

I give him the benefit of doubt, and say it's coming from Si-Fe like Fukyo says. Who knows though:smoker:

I agree with what your saying, but is there a middle ground? Perhaps the "intersubjective" realm between objective/subjective... I also thought Architect would be reasoning from Ti since he is supposedly Ti dominant?

Explain?

Of course I'm aware that IP has ownership legality but I'm talking about the theoretical justification for such which you either seem to not care about for pragmatic reasons or you have a certain personal stake in keeping IP legal. Think outside the box -...

Property rights have been here since the beginning of civilization, without property rights society cant really function beyond subsistence level. Locke and others just systematized them into theories like the homesteading principle and such. But it might be a non-sequitur to consider IP as an...

Yeah calisthenics is where it's at. Thanks for the book recommendation. I've done some weight training in the past but I stick to calisthenics, some isometrics, and aerobics.

LOL. Glad to hear that didn't go through.

Yes if only I could find a sort of position like this. The difficulty of this has prevented me from going further in the field. Most web development jobs I have encountered are either being a code monkey doing CRUD apps all day or needing to have some sort of design skillet for front end stuff...

Ok got it. I do think though that the dynamic of Ti-Ne-Se-Fe for INTP and Ni-Te-Fe-Se for INTJ could be possible. Jung also mentions how the inferior functions should be opposite in attitude from dominant. Ti-Ni-Se-Fe couldn't work because there needs to be some sort of way for introverted...

What's wrong the idea that INTP = Ni-Ti-Fe-Se and INTJ = Ti-Ni-Se-Fe?

DMAE

:cool:Let us know if you find anything interesting/useful.

Yeah. Well there's ethereum, their trying to be a platform for people to build off of. Not sure what to think of it yet and don't fully understand how it can work. You would have to bypass certain systems already in place. Seems like something that needs broader appeal for it to be effective.

This is key right here.

Worth reading? How is it compared to Our Enemy, The State - Nock, Rise and fall of society - Chodorov, or The State - Oppenheimer?

Good thread. Reckful has put forth some interesting ideas. Interestingly, I have always identified more with Jung's conception of the introverted intuitive type rather than introverted thinking type. On the other hand I identify more with MBTI/Kiersey's INTP rather than INTJ. There is...

Any thoughts on smart contracts?

This reminds me of what Ludwig von Mises distinguishes as theory vs history. Theories are deductive based models while thymology/history/psychology are inductive based fields which is capable of changing as new input is added.

All theories including type, are tentative in some form but have certain validity based on it's predictive or descriptive power. I use MBTI/Socionics/Keirsey as models(tools) to try to understand other personalities and myself. The foundation goes back to Hippocrates during antiquity and the...

Socionics is more in depth compared to MBTI and includes all 8 functions into their model.

lol

"ENTP's CS" is in writing related fields - editor or critic. I think ENFP's are better suited for more journalistic roles encompassing current events and reporting news. But both fit the role due to being Ne dom.

Bill Gates is a INTP.

Sometimes, not really. I go through phases of interest in investing. Mostly internet related work or odd jobs.

your musings are interesting. What is difference between mbti introvert and extrovert or are these labels meaningless without attaching a certain function to it?

This has me thinking I am a ENTP, especially the bold. The thing is one of my good friends IRL describes himself as a ENTP, but compared to me he is a lot more utility oriented, externally successful, and good at networking, ect...Perhaps hes not even a intuitive? I always thought I was a...
