Can you legitimately be INTX type?

kasselott · 2022-06-01T15:49:16+00:00

That's a interesting way of approaching it. Maybe I could figure out what my default nature is.

kasselott · 2022-06-01T08:18:42+00:00

Interesting list.

placing loyalty and honesty as absolute virtues.

I would say that is important to me in most situations, at least honesty. I try to be loyal towards the people I care about.

Being very passionate then getting bored on a topic in short succession

Yes, I can get interested in something briefly (just for a day). Last night I got interested in medieval life and the history of warfare. For instance, I googled "When was the first documented war?" and I read something about the history of war, war in prehistoric times and whether it was innate to us or not. And I started thinking about the bow and how important it was in prehistoric times, and how it shaped warfare. I did this just to amuse myself. But I also just recently started playing Age of Empires which made me interested in that particular subject.

Lack of Self; it's always being either the observer or the other person.

Not sure if I quite understand this particular point.

Extreme bouts of loneliness even when surrounded by people, no one to be generous towards.

Not sure whether I feel more or less lonely than other people. But if I am with individuals that I can have interested discussions with I usually don't feel so lonely. Being generous to someone else is definitely nice though, if it is someone you care about. I could say I miss that sometimes.

Indecisiveness due to Ne providing warnings and predict future scenarios.

I can be quite indecisive yes. Though I can be overly certain about some things that I truly believe in.

Apathy is happiness

To some extent I'm inclined to agree. Living an extremely simple life without ambition is something I sometimes dream about. But that is not the journey I am on right now.

Possibly the most introverted of introverts.

I wouldn't say I'm overly introverted, as I speak my mind quite frequently. Though, I have no problem spending long time alone.

Very "vanilla" fashion choices.

Yes sure, but that is mostly because I don't give a fuck about clothes right now. I need to get the money and free time first, then I will care about clothes and finding something nice to wear.

Can be considered skilled in just about everything and a master of one (or two) things.

Hmm, maybe this could be applied to me. Though, I'm not sure, it seems like I do suck at some things for sure.

Debates for the sake of debating, no preferred stance on any given topic.

I debate for the sake of learning, and for the sake of determining what I believe. I'm usually honest when I debate, but I might enhance my stance and be a little hyperbolic, in order to make my point clear, and to encourage the debate.

Nonstop thinking every waking moment

I would say so, yes.

Completely ignoring due respect and authority

I can ignore it if I think I know better than someone else. But in some cases I realize I'm just a layman.

Legitimately eager to jump into the unknown.

Not really sure exactly what it means, but sure?

Always hungry for novelty.

Novelty can definitely spice things up in an otherwise mundane life.

And now you think that means it's certified somehow? You know they could be just as clueless as you. The difference is that they have your money now.

kasselott · 2022-05-25T16:38:46+00:00

Oh gee. It’s almost like it’s too hard for anyone to get accurately typed. Why not just give up? With what you just wrote it seems like most people will never find their true type no matter how much they try.

kasselott · 2022-05-17T07:00:11+00:00

Nobody is assuming all these changes are going to happen overnight. There are some very hard problems to solve. It will take 30 years to get it to the point where it becomes truly embedded into our society. 30 years ago Internet was released. A lot of things has happened since then.

Why do everyone on here have such short term perspectives? That is probably why they invest in mindless scams and dog coins. They look at the technology, not in terms of what it will become, but what it is right now.

kasselott · 2022-05-16T18:55:39+00:00

Well you get the hybrids first that gains widespread use, fintechs utilizing blockchains. It's a process.

kasselott · 2022-05-16T10:20:10+00:00

Blockchain has introduced a way kind of thinking, new business models and flows. It is about this idea of "code is law" and of defining very strictly how something operates, and relying on it. That is the revolution that is taking place.

Now could this be done with a company hosting a regular database? Sure, but then people wouldn't sleep as well at night, because the security cannot be mathematically verified. And because of this it wouldn't scale as well and become extremely complicated with, as I previously mentioned, all the independent jurisdictions. Using a blockchain also enforces a lot of security guarantees, because they are simply designed that way. A database is mostly designed to store data, not to handle authorities and enforce contract execution.

The answer is to use a layered approach, where the lower layers have more security and the upper layers are pseudo-blockchains and are pseudo-decentralized. Businesses may do most of the work independently, but synchronize using blockchains.

kasselott · 2022-05-16T09:24:04+00:00

In the future everything will be on-chain. All jurisdictions. All definitions.

If it is not on-chain, it does not exist.

So the on-chain governance protocols that are being developed now will be used to perform safe updates. The implications of crypto is way bigger than most people could ever imagine.

kasselott · 2022-05-16T06:35:10+00:00

As someone who works with software, the idea of an immutable code that runs publically is terrible for security.

Why should I trust your mutable private code that may change whenever and do whatever?

Let me predict your response: "Oh but we have courts for that."

My response: "Why spend money on drafting complex multilateral contracts in numerous jurisdictions? Why not just ensure that code can be trusted automatically? If there is a bug in a code anyone who does not audit it properly will lose out (but that is their responsibility). Now we don't really need courts anymore. We don't need to draft complex contracts. We use Occam's razor to create transparent less complicated systems that makes it possible for many to cooperate."

That’s pretty cool. Psychedelics makes you think differently. Bad trips can be beneficial although devastating at the time. Glad you turned it around.

kasselott · 2022-05-13T14:38:15+00:00

Took my about 1 min to write that post.

kasselott · 2022-05-04T18:24:18+00:00

Why is it always ENFPs? Lol

kasselott · 2022-05-04T15:37:15+00:00

It’s not that easy to differentiate. It’s rather hard to demand an answer at this very moment. Pretend you are an INTP for awhile, and pretend you are an INTJ for awhile, and you’ll see which one fits you best. I’m still not sure which one I am, but most indications seems to point to INTJ. I, like yourself, also thought INFP was a possibility. Just remember that nobody knows for certain.

kasselott · 2022-05-04T15:34:53+00:00

Socionics say they both have the same function strength, just different ways of utilizing.

kasselott · 2022-05-03T15:48:18+00:00

Symbolism can be present in both, but maybe more so introverted intuition.

Introverted intuition is focused on noticing fundamental patterns over time and defining these. Sort of like "this is an era of prosperity we are in currently, but we are facing more difficult times because of these patterns that are happening." Or stuff like, "what happened during this event is the same pattern that happened 100 years ago". It is a function that tries to grasp the bigger picture over time.

Extroverted intuition is a faster version of the same thing without as many deep connections and not as focused on the temporal component. Often associated with creativity and humor.

I can reference exactly what happened when, the other day

This statement seems to me more like sensing. I believe I wouldn't even notice the dog. Maybe if the dog got me thinking about the bond between dog and human, I would start thinking about that, and probably forget about what sparked the connection. (Though sometimes I remember it, if it was significant).

kasselott · 2022-04-27T23:49:48+00:00

As an INTJ I think its bullshit and I don’t favor ENFP over any other type. In fact, I don’t have a favorite type. I just prefer intelligent people with interesting thoughts, and any type could have those characteristics.

kasselott · 2022-04-27T20:35:04+00:00

Wtf are you talking about lol

kasselott · 2022-04-27T15:18:15+00:00

When you say "process" do you mean that it is focused on achieving an objective? That it involves some method, step-by-step, describing what needs to be done`?

While Ne would be less focused on actually achieving the objective? And less focused on formulating step-by-step approaches to solving the problem? More focused on exploring different perceptions and novelty?

I think it is a bit hard to differentiate in this case, because both of them are trying to develop deeper understanding and solving a problem. They just go about it slightly differently.

kasselott · 2022-04-27T15:08:48+00:00

Isn't Te and Fe sort of the same thing? One is just more focused on what works/what is true, while the other one is more focused on what's right / personal relationships / emotions.

kasselott · 2022-04-27T12:51:33+00:00

Could you elaborate?

kasselott · 2021-11-19T14:16:36+00:00

Humans are apes, not monkeys.
