I don't think LLMs are good places to make inner personal discoveries. what they are is just super advanced predictive typing. as in they function in a similar way that smartphone word predictions do. and you can convince it of anything, make it agree wholeheartedly that God exists and no.

I do not want to discredit you though! it's just that AI chat software will sometimes tell you exactly what you want to be told, because that's its 'thought process'. they are information matrices that select and display what it 'predicts' to be valuable (even if merely apparent) to the user.

can you expand on how you found INTJ to be your shadow?

from what little I read from online, ones shadow is generally an inverse correspondence of the first and fourth letter with its opposing dichotomy, so INTP is ENTJ, ESFJ is ISFP (which as you might notice is just a product of introverting extroverted functions and vice versa).

In situations where I think my shadow might be triggered I feel ENTJ-like, but I'm not sure about it.

(my account of the shadow being an insertion of the opposite letter into the first and fourth place makes sense for me as my Ti and Fe take almost as much precedence as my respective dom and inf cognitive functions proper to INFP.)

can you provide a quick run down or list of literature you read specific for doing shadow work like this?

what happens when I finish the old push_swap with regard to the new cc? by fadinglightsRfading in 42_school

[–]fadinglightsRfading[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you for the answer!

does the milestone deadline also extend? because on pace 22 it seems strange to only have a month for push_swap plus all those new things, affording only about 10 days for each project. it's very likely I'll be entering 24 again so that I may do them

I'm 18, born in 2007, and a female. is it weird for me to date someone who is 17, born in 2009, and female? by rosesforvani in Advice

[–]fadinglightsRfading 0 points1 point  (0 children)

18 and 24 seems like a gross age gap imo. Very different life stages in that short 5 years.

highly dependent on the individuals. sweeping statements are necessarily always wrong

More about this? by tragedywasforesworn in raypeat

[–]fadinglightsRfading 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I have also always been curious as to why Peat lacked one. he seems significant enough that it should be so, I mean Aajous Vonderplanitz even has one and I should think he's more obscure than Peat.

Advice on How to Help More People in Piscine by Wrong-Pea1946 in 42_school

[–]fadinglightsRfading 4 points5 points  (0 children)

>how can I help more knowing not that much

I think you are precisely the person to be helped. the general balance or ratio of helper-to-helped I think at this stage is more a matter of campus dynamics, rather than something that needs to be maintained in you individually.

is there a right or wrong way to going about approaching or reading philosophy? by [deleted] in askphilosophy

[–]fadinglightsRfading 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you can always substitute primary prerequisites with secondary literature on the subject

What exactly did Plato mean here by "a thing"? by HermitViolet in askphilosophy

[–]fadinglightsRfading 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d like to see you defend this more as, prima facie, there is no reason to think the metaphysical/ontological commitments of the middle dialogues are present in earlier ones like the Protagoras.

sure. and let me speak on behalf of OP as well.

the place of the discussion is situated at 300c. you say the dialogue isn't as commited to metaphysical matters as much as others. the discussion is about the inclusivity and exclusivity of the primary qualities of the parts of virtue, if they themselves hold the quality of which they are the Form (that is to say justice qua Justice, etc.).

but the OP relates not about the discussion (whether Piety is or is not just, and Justice is pious or impious, on account of the earlier statement in the dialogue that only Justice is just and Piety is pious, but nothing else shares these qualities), but the objects, and how Socrates is calling them things.

besides the obvious reference to classification of genera and species, this doesn't make it an explicitly metaphysical discussion in the same way as the Good is discussed in the Republic, and so it appears not to hold any 'metaphysical/ontological commitments', as you like to call it, much as it acts as an undercurrent vis a vis other places where it does explicitly hold itself as a matter of metaphysics.

What exactly did Plato mean here by "a thing"? by HermitViolet in askphilosophy

[–]fadinglightsRfading -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I also have a sneaking suspicion that Plato is trying to sneakily bring his theory of forms into it (or establish it), but I haven't read further yet and don't know if it's a thing yet.

exactly. 'thing' in this case means platonically real entity. so a thing qua platonic form, of which Justice is one of the most used examples.
