- GeneralMaximus 16y agoThis was recently linked from an HN article[1]. I think it's worth a thread of its own. [1] http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1486708 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1486708
- lhorie 16y agoThe article has too much fluff and too little data. It almost reads like a self-help book on "learning to love your introverted self" The whole thing reeks of subjective validation bias: >> Possible aptitudes: >> >> Hands-on task-organizing ability, spatial orientation, >> sensory threshold/overload point, body memory, common >> sense, green thumb, competitiveness, auditory >> identi/fication, day/night alertness, intuition, >> synesthesia, healing, affinity for animals, seeing auras. http://youarenotsosmart.com/2010/06/29/subjective-validation/ http://youarenotsosmart.com/2010/06/29/subjective-validation...
