> If we train on every piece of knowledge, then statistically that should average around 100IQ right? Interesting point - I'd never considered that.

I believe the critical failure point of humanity is that is requires enough humans to act in a "global idealist" manner, eschewing the societal easy fruit of the local maximum for building a global minimum/maximum, while givi

There are going to be a lot of pessimistic & pedantic startup ideas. <because the past few years the HN comments have moved from idealistic + optimistic to political + pessimistic + pedantic>

What you pointed out is adults have responsibilities. We all have responsibilities to work around to follow your goals and dreams. Not having responsibilities is not a sign of privilege - but just a sign of a different phase of life. So tha

Sure - those are some very specific examples. But whatever town you're in, drive around the nice areas. Those $1M-$5M houses with BMW's or etc. Are they gangsters and warlords? No, they're just normal people who tried and too

The only thing that matters is your OWN personal situation. Sure, some make it in 1 shot. Most don't.

You can always afford to continue - just with your after hours work job nights and weekends. In my experience, the stress and mental aspects are the hardest because each has to decide what to give up for potentially nothing in return.

Of course you can miss your shot. Many, many times. But it just means each time you have to give up a little more of your personal time and freedom for the next shot. No nights or weekends after the j.o.b. - each has to decide if that is wo

Realize the game you and your family are playing. Middle class have 3 paths out: - Single shot entrepreneurship - Repeated entrepreneurship with a job (no free nights or weekends) - Long term, multi generational wealth building over the cou

The goal is absolutely logical (training the model with data that is undesirable). It is the method you are questioning? I guess I would have just labeled them "terrible" or something in a bulk assignment to not have people observ

Why wouldn't a company want to have a better understanding of who they are hiring? A manager can use them to shape the role, shape the goals, and approach people differently. Example: If you are a xxTJ "thinker judger" I know

A suggestion is people project themselves as what they want, and not what they are - and answer that way. Self reporting & self contextualization of meaning of the questions could be considered low accuracy.

But people aren't unique. Their dominant behaviors and dominant social shaping are a distribution. Call it 5 buckets, call it 16 buckets or whatever - but people really aren't that unique on the whole.

> I think most people do this by instinct, and have self-made buckets for people. It's really error-prone and not very accurate, and ends up leading to a lot of prejudice. I agree with you. I noticed I held myself and others to a ve

I believe a framework gives you consistency and can be used to predict or understand the weighted probability of a human's decisions. We want to believe we are all unique individuals. To the Nth DNA strand, we are & to our localize

Wholly disagree. 1/12 of the population born during a period having the same behaviors is easily testable in one's personal life and can reveal the lunacy. Example: 140M people born globally a year, so all 140/12M would be &q

I've never understood people outside of a work context. They're just balls of emotion that to me appear to do illogical things for random reasons. In an effort to understand, about 10 years back I dove heavily into the traits of t

I'd suggest unschooling is good if the parents are regimented, habitual, and knowledgeable or willing to put in all the work. Teachers learn how to alter teaching styles to a child, and to repeat information often. Parents have none of
