Re: bostonimproper's journal
The conversation that you are having with yourself about money and your family is almost the same conversation I recently had with another tutor (who is definitely a serious core helper/leader type) about math/reading skills and our students. As Hristo's follow-up makes evident, there's no necessary...

Re: 4th, 5th, 6th Person Perspective
Gotcha (now.) Sounds good. However, I would suggest that this should actually be first in your chronological order: The key is to make each mod (including the first mode) attractive enough to bring in the people with the financial, labor, social, and intellectual resources to make the project a succ...

Re: Advanced Retroadaptics Podcast
There are two solutions. The third solution would be to take off the other three legs. ;) The funny thing is that I was actually thinking about sex, more than money or water on a permaculture project, in terms of "solved problems", because the fact that there is a shortage of young women ...

Re: What doesn't kill you might make you dumber?
There is the 'grad level' definition that points to a more granular/specific/exhaustive analysis than required in undergrad. Maybe this is Master's level thinking. AI might be really helpful with that. But 'grad level' can also be though of as a creative synthesis that builds upon and approaches th...

Re: Advanced Retroadaptics Podcast
Whereas the zones in permaculture is trying to prescriptively build up a sensible daily / weekly / monthly / annual to do list (micro). Interesting. This is almost exactly like a note I recently made to myself while re-booting GTD (Getting Things Done.) @Axel@J&G: Great podcast. Some thoughts/n...

Re: Is dissatisfaction necessary to change?
There’s also boredom and curiosity to consider. Humans are more or less innately programmed to sometimes seek out change for the sake of change. We’re explorers of our environments and also out-breeders. Only the Hobbit within us is likely to be satisfied with just the “cottage” portion of Adventure...

Re: Damn it Feels Good to be a Gangsta
How does our specific time and place encourage heterotelic goals as opposed to other times and places? By accelerating everything. Overly simplistic model might have average American sending 25 of his "energy slaves" off on one task which is heterotelic to the task on which he simultaneou...

Re: What doesn't kill you might make you dumber?
I think "brain fog" vs. high IQ is a bit of a false dichotomy. Maybe you Te types are sharp through and through, but when a Ti type is deeply engaged in thinking, she is also most likely to walk into traffic or eat 6 cookies absent clear intention. :lol: Also, it's important to realize tha...

Re: guitar player's journal
I kind of like PowerBi. It's like the big box Playdough Fun Factory. I wouldn't want to make a 30 year career out of it, but it might be a good skill/tool with which to rent oneself out on smaller contracts.

@jean:
I lived in Houghton for 2 years. It is quite cold, very snowy, very isolated, and full of young male engineering students. I would suggest Alpena, MI as similar in terms of access to natural beauty, but more generally appealing.

Re: Female role in series "Happy FIRE Relationship & Bicycle tour around the World"
What a good idea. I think it would be great if more humans offered clear (and interesting/appealing) relationship contract as opposed to nebulous default to conventional. If I was 30 years younger, and more sporty than bookish...

Re: 7Wannabe5-Take9-One Ordinary Day, With Peanuts
@mF: Doing something spontaneously onsite is a great idea! I should mention that the very cheap table-rent flea market in which we plan to be participating this summer is not necessarily towards the "loves old books" crowd. That's one of the reasons why the overall project-scape is going t...

Re: Gaming/virtual economies (EVE online)
The whole thing about living rent free in someone's head is a killer's ultimate goal. This is a very good discussion! I think I am finally getting a glimmer on Ni function. For a human Explorer with primary Ni, the Killer would be in your head, because your exploration/learning is largely internali...

Explorer try to know which side is right, and will annoy wathever side they are with with nuances. Also most likely to blithely note that the Emperor has no clothes.

Re: Gaming/virtual economies (EVE online)
it's more about having power on others than killing them. I agree. This is an extremely important distinction. Whereas Achievers are more interested in having Power Over Themselves. So, for example, patronizing behavior is often the behavior of a Killer. And the reason many/most heterosexual women ...

Many of us don't know what we are doing in that realm when we are young. For instance, I would describe much of my youthful behavior as being akin to that of a Dodo Bird in relationship to boys/men. It's difficult to change, but at some juncture I at least managed to level up to Cautious Squirrel in...

@jacob: Gotcha. I think as somebody who is strongly Explorer/Socializer, it can be difficult for me to sort out Achievers from Killers, because Wanting to Win isn't all that different from Wanting Others to Lose in many contexts. For example, I was thinking of an ISTP Virtuoso I know whom I could ea...
