(FB 1546719526 Timestamp) IS IT THAT SIMPLE? Seems to be a common observation that men informationally limited and insensitive and women are informationally oversaturated and hypersensitive, while we both have about the same limits on calculating decidability. You hear this a lot: –“Men are stupid and women are crazy”– But honestly it’s just cognitive structure. The drawers of the male mind and relative insensitivity, and the nets of the female mind and relative hypersensitivity. Evolution must have had a lot of fun rolling up those characters sheets…. Seriously. I wonder how many times Zeus rolled the dice before he said “Wow, do ya’ know how much fun we’re gonna have watching THIS pairing of the sexes? We are gonna be entertained for the next million years!!!” The gods have a mischievous sense of humor.

The Beatles spent a lot of time playing in germany and adapting their style, method, and content. These are two ends of the spectrum of 10k hours. There is no substitute for continuous market testing. There is no substitute for testing your arguments. Welcome to the revolution…

(FB 1546804687 Timestamp) GOALS IN ACCORDANCE WITH OUR AGENCY AS WELL AS NATURE. I prefer we target the virtue spectrum from stoicism (little agency), to epicureanism (personal agency, to aristocracy (political agency) rather than a universal. The technique serves the mind no matter what virtues we seek to give it, but that does not mean ‘monotheism’ so to speak in that we must all seek the same. We each have different agency. We require goals that provide mindfulness in accordance with our agency.

(worth repeating) (just like IQ the most accurate measure in psychology). from: http://www.spsp.org/news-center/blog/stereotype-accuracy-response/ THE EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE This blog is not the place to review the overwhelming evidence of stereotype accuracy, though interested readers are directed to SPSR and our updated reviews that have appeared in Current Directions in Psychological Science (Jussim et al, 2015) and Todd Nelsonâs Handbook of Stereotypes, Prejudice and Discrimination (Jussim et al, 2016). Summarizing those reviews: Over 50 studies have now been performed assessing the accuracy of demographic, national, political, and other stereotypes. Stereotype accuracy is one of the largest and most replicable effects in all of social psychology. Richard et al (2003) found that fewer than 5% of all effects in social psychology exceeded râs of .50. In contrast, nearly all consensual stereotype accuracy correlations and about half of all personal stereotype accuracy correlations exceed .50.[1] The evidence from both experimental and naturalistic studies indicates that people apply their stereotypes when judging others approximately rationally. When individuating information is absent or ambiguous, stereotypes often influence person perception. When individuating information is clear and relevant, its effects are âmassiveâ (Kunda & Thagard, 1996, yes, that is a direct quote, p. 292), and stereotype effects tend to be weak or nonexistent. This puts the lie to longstanding claims that âstereotypes lead people to ignore individual differences.â There are only a handful of studies that have examined whether the situations in which people rely on stereotypes when judging individuals increases or reduces person perception accuracy. Although those studies typically show that doing so increases person perception accuracy, there are too few to reach any general conclusion. Nonetheless, that body of research provides no support whatsoever for the common presumption that the ways and conditions under which people rely on stereotypes routinely reduces person perception accuracy. -
