'This was the issue I had with my leadership role. I'm very egalitarian and like to treat others as equals. Due to that, I find it difficult to tell others what to do and assign them tasks. In my...

This question reminds me a lot of this greentext. :laughing: http://i.imgur.com/9lOQCj2.png An AI could definitely create or become god-like. There's already talk that we might be living in a...

The other dark side of rep is that it replaces potential meaningful conversation with a near useless nod of approval. I say useless because the only thing you can infer from it is, I know that...

Trying to meet other NTs can be frustrating. I would think that meeting up with other NTs would be awesome, but 1. they are so few and far between they are hard to find 2. Once you do meet an NT,...

Rep is interesting, but I only pay attention to it depending on the site I am and on some sites, I will stay away from people from have a high rep. For example, Instagram. Celebrities have a lot of...

The only thing that can increase IQ is NZT, but that's just a movie. :D  http://www.collider.com/wp-content/uploads/limitless_image_bradley_cooper-600x333.jpg

My code is much too long to post here, but it's available here https://github.com/CharlieTheProgrammer/ComputerVisionWorks/blob/master/MotionDetector.py This algorithm detects motion and whether...

It must be really odd to live a life with no interests.

Also is the 70K or 80K doesn't say much about how much money people are spending. 70K to 80K means a lot more in rural Kansas that in LA or SF. Regardless of location, I'm sure a person earning that...

I envy your ability remember things easily. It's something that I haven't been able to do, even after reading about memory castles and the linking method for memory, which is what you're probably...

I like systems because I can grasp the big picture very easily. However, the details are my weakness. For the smaller things, having automation definitely helps with that. I've recently started using...

Ditto that. Money is a tool that be used for good or evil. I hope to earn enough passive income within the next decade or two so I can stop working or at least do what I want to do. I wished my INFJ...

It's going to be terrible for a long time before it gets better because someone (namely, corporations) are going to own all this equipment and software. They are going to build incredible wealth from...

You're making a big assumption that people aren't going to be dicks. In Star Trek (I've only watched Enterprise), the people on board there are all trying to be the best they can be and are all...

I'm never an early adopter, mostly because it's a terrible value proposition. I know that in a year or two, I can get something much better at a cheaper price. Tesla is an exception. I won't buy a...

Absolutely, I enjoy the design phase (or more accurately, the architectural part of it) more than the implementation. I also tend to have more planned out. I like to future proof my creations as much...

I'm going with 16GB of RAM, not because I need it now, but because I keep my devices for 5-8 years before replacing them and as time goes on and developers take RAM for granted, they just keep using...

Thanks for looking into this. I didn't realize there were more powerful laptops than what that Lenovo had. It was the highest CPU of that line of the ultraportable, I figured it was the fastest...

I've recently become interested in using a high end laptop + dock to replace my desktop. I want portability and don't really need two computers. With a dock, I can just keep my keyboard and monitors...

I have to agree with this. There's something special about traveling and going away on a roadtrip (or further) that nothing else can really come close to. I think you summarize this neatly in your...

1: Cut a hole in a box 2: Put your junk in that box 3: Make her open the box And that's the way you do it.

Yep, motivating others is difficult. Also, I find it difficult to explain my vision to S types, who usually need greater detail.

Take the red pill bruh. (*derails thread)

....can I be a master at being a jack of all trades?

I was recently trolling around the internet for greek names when I inadvertently stumbled upon a new dating app called Sapio. It claims to links users based on intelligence. I was immediately drawn...

I most often program with my hands. I tried programming with my feet once, but that didn't quite work, it's hard to stretch that pinkie to the Ctrl key.

I learned about test driven development yesterday and today with examples. http://www.codekoala.com/pdfs/tdd.pdf is a good book for those that know how to program a bit and have no idea how to...

To play devil's advocate: how easily one forgets the good. Technology has also made other things more humane. For example, advanced in medicine and education has allowed more people access to those...

Changing the world can just be an end goal onto itself. I never said anything about doing good or assuming that changes would be good, I'm older now and not that naive. Still changing the world is an...

SolonsWarning People hijack photos that aren't theirs and make up fake digital lives. That's what I would do as long I personally don't have to make any videos. Sad to say, but being attractive...

There's an ISTJ at work and we get along and work fairly well. I like that he's pragmatic so he keeps my ideas from getting too impractical. We communicate well enough to make an effective duo. The...

atamagasuita, tell me about. I've spent about 10 hours of my free time this week trying to make some changes to my network, which I was unsuccessful due to lack of documentation. Now it's back to...

It depends on how old he is, but something that would be used a lot would be great. I dislike gifts that look cool, but I can't do anything with it. I second the scented scarf. As an INTP with LDR...

I found the nihilist! :) I don't know if the vast majority of people will be able to cope with the reality that there isn't really the one. I agree that people need to de-program from that...

I must say I disagree with this notion that technology somehow enables males to mate serially. The only thing that enables this how many women give it up and how easily they do it. If anything, the...

I'd rather not bring up unrelatable things (because hardly anyone does what I do) that would just serve to make a social situation awkward. I just nod and comment on the weather and anything else I...

Perhaps the rule that something ends and begins isn't true, but we are simply too limited by our current understanding to fully comprehend what that means. Ie. everything we have seen so far has a...

I only breakdown when the 1-2 key people in my life let me down consistently, which is almost never, due to the pre-existing requirements in order to become a key person in my life. Everyone else can...

I think the closest we would get to time traveling is traveling into the future through cryogenic technology. You would just be put to deep sleep and wake up in the year 3000 like Fry.

The hole is there is the multiverse, which supposedly, there are an infinite number of. In that case, you could time travel if you jumped into one of the universe that is identical to ours, just x...

I plan on traveling, not soon, and I wouldn't really do it with someone I didn't know. Can you confirm you're not a dingo trying to eat unsuspecting INTPs?

Welp, we are getting closer to a Psychopass like world. Detecting emotions with wireless signals | MIT News Just a small excerpt. “Our work shows that wireless signals can capture information...

I guess I still don't understand. What other example of a dependency do you have and what exactly would be automated as a result of it?

What I was saying there is that a relatively large amount of people would craft the automation, which would be open sourced and open to the public, such as in your example of having 300 people in an...

True that. It would be cool if they we could see the story line from the different houses especially Slytherin.

Maybe the best and brightest can take over an small country and we can start from there.

Not quite, I don't think prohibition worked very well. However, I disagree with how our society currently deals with this problem. We don't rehabilitate anyone, instead we throw the worst of these...'
