How do you know if evolution is progressive by nature?

Summer or spring for me.

I ment # 10 and 3. Gender,racism,sexuality issues seem very Fi related subjects. I don't really see how Ti could find interest in trying to understand an issue that is so low-level besides trying to see why people are actually interested in them.

Numbers 10 and 4 are surprising. Rather superficial issues if they even are at all.

Yes, I dropped out then taught myself skills to make money and self-educate on my own time. College/university has essentially been mostly training centers since the early 1900's. It's only really important if you need it as a credential to practice a certain vocation(law,medicine), want some...

DJ Tiesto - In Search of Sunrise 1,2, and 3

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersubjectivity

Pretty much sums up. Another one is is impatience with ignorant/narrow-minded people or "suffer fools gladly" as they say.

A problem is that in a ever increasing bureaucratic world, many occupations/jobs require experience or certain credentials to practice. You could find yourself doing something which requires years of preparation then changing interests. Work can be approached in different ways. You could do a...

Cool. I think another example for INTP would be a critic. Continuing with praxeology you could say paranoiac values come from having critical behavior. Critics make sense(a) of established frameworks(b) by presenting new perspectives(c), while neglecting feel good truisms(d).

I like where you are going with this. But could you clarify the terms(challenge, intent)?

You mean INTJ's? Isn't technology/software external?

I share your sentiment. I think in general Ti is used hidden or internally and what is seen or observed is Ne from INTP's. Se for ISTP's. This complicates matters as society usually wants a Te approach or at least the ability to use Fe. ISTP's have easier time since Se is more practical oriented.

I have one but never really use it. I think it important for certain positions though.

I think the premise of this topic is differentiating between Greed and greed, similar to Success and success or Ambition and ambition. The capitalized from is associated with the external standard or what "everyone thinks of those labels". So Greed equals(to most) being after money, recognition...

Waking time and sleeping patterns wouldn't be any issue if 9-5's, the rat-race, and similar were obsolete. It is the epitome of extroverted thinking to delegate the division of work onto a set time structure regardless of individual preferences.

I find the show retarded. The main dude is annoying as well especially how he appears in Intel commercials. He reminds me of nerdy/geeky ISTJ's and ISFP's.

Yeah your right. History proves this as well.

Value is subjective. I guess you could argue Architects point that your mind/neo-cortex is the most valuable entity, as without it you couldn't even comprehend or think about valuation. But then this presupposes that human cognition has value in itself.

The thing is MBTI is very generalized. You'll see a variety of INTP's based on environmental conditioning and it's effects, as well as other typologies like ones with different Enneagrams. Even here on this forum this is pretty evident. It can be tricky to type people or expect people with...

I always thought of him as ENTP.

Anything which I can use to further my understanding of truth and my place in nature/society or whatever you want to call it. Geography was my first interest that I can remember.

Swim in the ocean.

He was probably an INTP as it seems that few people understand the importance of his thoughts.

You have summarized the problem INTP's face.

I would re-frame this as INTP's are becoming superfluous rather than obsolete. Perhaps we have always been this way. The fact of the matter is that there is exists a knowledge problem in society. Read Hayek and you'll know what I'm talking about. The more tools(computers) advance and add to...

You say you've escaped the 4-year prison sentence of high school...college is the same deal. If your looking to be educated it wont happen in university anymore unless you do some self-education on the side. It's all training if your lucky or brainwashing in the social realm, your not going...

I only have experience with software for web applications but what about planes or embedded devices? I'm sure there are systems in planes which are synched or tested using software. Flying people around in a metal container can be life threatening.

The best channel is the Weather Channel. Local on the 8's especially. It's good background noise and straightforward. Although things have changed now that they feature reality shows. Looks like TV programming has been subject to the law of diminishing returns, like most things.

I would say INFP's can fall in this as well. ISJ's and ISP's are more grounded in the present and INJ's while Ni dom, they insist on a somewhat ordered external. But these things could happen to ESTJ's. Developing Si I think is key here, to be aware of these cycles. Totally putting off the...

I pretty much agree with this. This reminds me of the Hayekian idea of dispersed knowledge. In fact I think his article "The Use of Knowledge in Society" is one of the most important writings on the consequences of trying to improve, change, modify, plan the world. How do humans expect to...

Yeah saving money(including investments) is the biggest factor, but I think economic conditions play a big role in how retirement occurs. The nature of work is not static. I'm on the same boat. Not sure if you have ever read "The Richest Man In Babylon" but it suggests to always take out 10%...

I wonder is this concept will become obsolete especially in the US where people the under age of 30-40 will probably never get the entitlements that their parents received. Retirement is essentially only valid for people who have pensions and are waiting to stop "working" once they a hit certain...

Yeah that's interesting. Were they responsible for turning education into training or just insisting that the mechanics of the world is the only thing that matters? Classical education in general has become either a novelty or irrelevant in today's world. The consequences have been or are now...

I've never enjoyed math but was good at it growing up. Got bored of it and lost complete interest in my mid-teens. I enjoy letters, maps, and languages more than numbers or puzzles. Geometry is the only math subject which holds some interest, but not really. I struggle with anything above basic...

They are fools because warfare and increasing of state power will make it a bigger quagmire for the territory which they reside in(as well other regions). I don't deny their legitimacy and I wouldn't be surprised if this situation escalated with more geopolitical warfare. Why do people support...

Nice analysis. If OP really buys into the propaganda then either he has some interest into what the US Government does or has an over developed Fe. War on terrorism is a joke along with war on drugs, poverty, or anything else.

Cultivate your own garden.

Te/Fi axis is annoying.

Out of all the feelers I wonder if INFJ's have the blankest faces.

Truth is dependent on some ontological system.

That inferior Te makes them act or think like they are logical people. They enjoy using their value systems as a way to modify or build systems. I have known couple INFP's who were really good at maths and sort of prodigies. I wouldn't be surprised to find more INFP's and even ISFP's than...

estp vs istp

Beach house preferably on a hill in C. America, S.E Asia, or anywhere tropical but not so developed. Runaway with jet to go wherever. Clean and elegant furnished rooms, something to connect to internet, and huge library with books, maps, and music collections that would take around two lifetimes...

What is a human?

I think this is why I'm pretty quiet in social situations, especially when discussing "intelligent" ideas. Unless I know I am with like-minded individuals or in a one on one setting I won't really put my two cents in. Honestly what's the point? Do you really think you can change someones...

Yeah digital technology has made it easier to be location independent and it's sort of a like a way back to a more "simpler" lifestyle which was present before the industrial era peaked. The trend has been that work like you mentioned is becoming done in a decentralized manner, the only thing...

When it comes to sports, surfing or skateboarding if you don't live anywhere with waves. Why? Few other sports have the amount of freedom of movement along with technical ability and ease. Of course you'll never be better than ISTP's though.

Why is this?
