truth-o-meter comes built in

2017-08-16 19:55:47 UTC  

well I agree it's better to look at the whole thing as magic, especially in the hermetic sense

2017-08-16 19:55:50 UTC  

of that word

2017-08-16 19:55:59 UTC  

yeah, that's how I mean it

2017-08-16 19:56:00 UTC  

sorcery

2017-08-16 19:56:02 UTC  

alchemy

2017-08-16 19:56:11 UTC  

yeah

2017-08-16 19:57:31 UTC  

Breeding the Spawn is their creative peak.

2017-08-16 19:57:41 UTC  

@fallot So which is the best test to take?

2017-08-16 19:57:57 UTC  

I remember you linked m e some months ago but I can't remember their names

2017-08-16 19:58:28 UTC  

I agree it is their creative peak

2017-08-16 19:58:47 UTC  

@Spinal the test I linked before is the one I now ask people to take

2017-08-16 19:58:56 UTC  

it has some advantages, overall I remain displeased with testing

2017-08-16 19:59:21 UTC  

there is no best test, there are only good test takers

2017-08-16 19:59:31 UTC  

some types type themselves easily

2017-08-16 20:00:15 UTC  

some types (not MBTI) may not have sufficient insight, personal honesty, or take the test seriously enough

2017-08-16 20:00:59 UTC  

Ok

2017-08-16 20:01:04 UTC  

Effigy is probably still the better album

2017-08-16 20:01:10 UTC  

you're not very ambiguous Spinal

2017-08-16 20:01:18 UTC  

unless you found the designation to be jarring

2017-08-16 20:01:47 UTC  

You mean my results?

2017-08-16 20:02:06 UTC  

I've found that one's results with the MBTI change with age.

2017-08-16 20:02:52 UTC  

That's interesting, and seems reasonable

2017-08-16 20:03:02 UTC  

yes, your results

2017-08-16 20:03:08 UTC  

your results can change with age due to personal growth

2017-08-16 20:03:11 UTC  

your type doesn't change

2017-08-16 20:03:31 UTC  

if your type changes

2017-08-16 20:03:34 UTC  

MBTI is worthless

2017-08-16 20:03:45 UTC  

Hmmm. Aren't results and type tied together?

2017-08-16 20:04:03 UTC  

there's a lot of room to mistype

2017-08-16 20:04:18 UTC  

I think best results for reproducibility

2017-08-16 20:04:21 UTC  

are like 0.7

2017-08-16 20:04:25 UTC  

@fallot I wasn't planning on taking further tests, just curious

2017-08-16 20:04:34 UTC  

in that case yes, best as far as I am concerned

2017-08-16 20:04:38 UTC  

It is magic and therefore subjective. How much worth does it have in explaining a person's psychology?

2017-08-16 20:04:49 UTC  

I think a lot

2017-08-16 20:05:00 UTC  

there is nothing comparable

2017-08-16 20:05:14 UTC  

it can give you a holistic insight into many different aspects of a person's behaviour

2017-08-16 20:05:16 UTC  

motivations etc.

2017-08-16 20:05:38 UTC  

@fallot Do you know who else got the same type?

2017-08-16 20:05:40 UTC  

My impulses are different from what I actually do
