'I thought this article was very enlightening. It basically asserts that national debt is a measure of our nations wealth and its fundamentally impossible to pay it off; it's just a balance sheet...
Hey guys. Long time since I've made a peep. I had a best friend, let's call her Alice. I knew nothing as wonderful as my friendship with Alice. We would talk about anything and everything all...
I can't tell. They sound like very enticing words in the moment but when I try to grasp them later they just waft away like wisps of smoke and all that's left are the vague feelings. The only time...
Edit: Turn this into a useful post. When I plug in 1 for x, I get 400000*2^(ln(24000)/ln(3)) = $232,094,896. I have a feeling this rule breaks down the closer you get to either extreme.
Okay, so you want to find the number of people N between incomes a and b, you would integrate the second function between those points, like this: P = P_0*1/3^(ln(I/I_0)/ln(2)) =...
Sure! I opened it and played with it, so let's say you know that 20000 people make $40000 - that is your arbitrary point, meaning P_0 = 20000 and I_0 = $40000. If you're solving for income I (y),...
Okay let's see, you got two variables exponentially related... Yeah I think I can do this. Income as a function of people: I = I_0*2^(ln(P_0/P)/ln(3)) Where I_0 and P_0 are an arbitrary point....
Yep, I started by picking up html and css over a week, using CSS: The Hidden Manual and redesigning some bad sites. Then I found w3schools and began using it as an entry point into every topic:...
Hopeless. Despaired. On all fronts. Had a week of failure everywhere and today just politically cracked – I am accepting death by our worlds politics and all my personal mistakes. It will be long. It...
If it doesn't make you happy, then what the hell is the point? Besides, the things that make one happy are usually the things they are particularly competent in, and that competence can go a ways...
Oddly I am attracted by the big, 4x games. Galactic Civilizations, Sid Meiers Civilization, Aurora (in small amounts) draw me in. Something about building expansive empires or just hearing stories...
I believe I have a very hard time accepting things that do not agree with my ideals. I cling to my fantasies and look towards reality as a change far off in the future that I shouldn't worry my...
I absolutely love the rain! Time and again I wonder why the general consensus is that sunny blue skies are nice when they are so featureless and predictable. When I asked my friend why a lot of...
I would pick ENTP, because I would like to know how the mind of those closest to me turns. I feel like it would make communicating much easier and more fulfilling then on after : ) Edit: I spend...
I understand your confusion. I hope my perspective can help answer your question. Values as I define them are beliefs that we hold on the deepest level, statements that we simply accept as true....
Thank you all sincerely for your encouragement, advice, and understanding. I slept on it and read these first thing in the morning, and I think I can give a good effort towards writing my paper now....
I am very frustrated right now because I've just entered college and I am leaping into a college level English class on rhetoric and argument, and as expected I have to adjust to writing papers....
I think I can sympathize, though it comes about a bit differently. Usually I will be thinking about something intensely then get distracted by something else, and then be physically unable to recall...
I personally love the feeling of being thanked, and figure I have the thanks to give and make other people happy, so why not? I'll thank your post for pretty much any small little thing, including...
Hey everyone, I have been thinking about something else and I wanted to share. When I read that INFPs as children are described as living fanciful lives, pretending to be princes and princesses, I...
I am a terrible liar. I hate myself for lying to anyone so when I try, I can't help sabotaging myself; it feels like I try to make comedic slip ups and reveal myself in a silly way. I think the only...
I am very good at math, I think. At the very least, I am persistent. I seem to possess a compulsive need to understand why certain concepts work, and create equations for convoluted problems that...
I've noticed over enough late nights that when I am tired, but still aware, my brain begins to function somewhat differently. The emotions I previously talked about being unable to really feel come...
I don't know.. I think I am more concerned with the fate of humanity more than that of the environment, though the two are tied together. When environmental disasters arise or are hinted at, I fear...
I tested as nearly perfectly balanced with a slight leaning towards right brain dominance (on a different test). Looking at the various traits of the left and right side of the brain, I don't think...
Going by what I see in debates and intelligent articles on controversial issues, I cannot. I always seem to speak in concepts rather than examples, and I have to circle my argument around several...
Thank you very, very much for posting this and elaborating as you did Niki. You finally put words to the feelings I had about capitalism, pinpointed and described the part about it that has always...
For Souled In, in my case these emotions explode exclusively when I am alone. Even though what may trigger them may happen long before then, it doesn't seem to click until then. So when I am around...
I often wonder what exactly introspective feelings means and the consequences of that. My impression has been that my emotions run constantly under the radar, imperceptible even to me, leaving me...
Not quite, my conversations with myself are usually short and defined by arguments and slapping. It would seem I need couples counseling :tongue: You must have a very interesting and colorful mind...
I see Ron Paul as a step in the right direction. I do not personally agree with a few of his views, but I respect them and admire his integrity. If he was your typical politician, I think life would...
It depends on what kind of trolling that is being done (though, I suck at both :tongue:) If it is the type of trolling that you would observe in a youtube comment section, or rather among the...
Yes, I do get curious about that quite often. I noticed that I really like being feminine in certain ways, and I like how gentle and gracious women can look. I also seem to get along with them much...
This is probably a little out of place, but I noticed that it seems to come up and tickle me every time I read some political article about the place of governance so I thought I could discuss it....
5 Centimeters Per Second (Byousoku 5 Centimeter) is an absolutely amazing animation, most certainly for an INFP. I love it for its stunningly beautiful visuals, its heart touching soundtrack (which I...
Guess :tongue: Hopefully no one finds that disturbing. I just feel like I relate to her timid and socially conscious nature, or I would like to at any rate. I would totally take care of animals...
I imagine if I explained it, my best friend would accept it completely, because she is simply awesome like that. I don't mean to deceive anyone (except perhaps myself), I just tend towards liking...
..Or shallowness, I am hoping to find that out here. I've noticed lately that as a rule I get very interested in the things that my close friends are interested in, but only to the degree that...
I understand your feelings on this completely! I am actually relieved to see you write this, because I have the very same issue. I cannot focus long enough to appreciate a book unless I get to share...
Actually, I seem to favor having one best friend, then a few people I consider really good company. I feel I can't be as sincere a friend with several people, so I pick one and stick with them. Then...
Oh my god, I LOVE your mind Frixtion! That sounds so incredibly entertaining and colorful everyday, truly the kind of imaginative world I wish I could live in. And to you, yourebffjill, I love your...
One of the reasons Im fairly sure I am an INFP is because I have that voice in my head that never leaves me and constantly looks over everything I do, usually with a critical look in its eye... ...
Through the scientific process we have been able to explain the majority of everything around us, or at least reduce the questions to relatively tiny nuances. Physics for instance explains the...
This is the best thing you can do. Then, hopefully, he may be able to find someone else. (Since he is not an INFP from the sounds of it, that should be much easier for him :happy: )
Yes, god yes I have a problem vocalizing my thoughts and emotions. Part of it is because I am afraid of being completely open about what I am feeling, yet I don't want to be dishonest, so I have to...
I think we'd love to have you here, you seem very nice, and could bring an interesting perspective to our lot while getting quite a bit out of it yourself! At any rate, we should be the last to...
Hmm, I noticed that the leg had a bias towards clockwise perception after a little bit too. I'm not sure how accurate this is as a indication of side dominance, but going off of the simple...
Huh, weird. I am actually very afraid of being late to things, especially when a friend is involved, so I am usually there early. Then again, I've had to set my alarm clock 10 minutes ahead just...
Modern politicians, who think they're playing a god damn game and use societies' resources to try and win instead of bettering society, often hurting everyone else in their boundless vanity. ...
After a curious turn of emotions, I noticed that I seem to work my hardest and do my best when I feel deeply depressed. The grim passion that comes with the sadness always seems to push me way beyond...'
