I have enough followers now who are sufficiently competent to contribute to the work, to answering questions, to educating others, that I can see the pattern in their development and the extraordinary leap in their ability to articulate explanations with high precision – and it’s the most rewarding experience of my life to see these amazing men demonstrate such extraordinary competency. I’m sure some profs feel this way about their Phd candidates – but they expect it. Conversely, until a few years ago I thought it might be impossible for others to learn and apply the method. It isn’t. It just needed a few years of hard work at simplification. And a few years of work by each of them to study and apply it.

Yes. We teach this ordinal math (The Method) but we havent found a process for doing so that doesnt take years and require a certain personality type.

Just finished another awesome interview with author and institute fellow Luke Weinhagen, (@LukeWeinhagen) discussing chapter 14 of his book “The Primal Primer”: entitled “Situational Awareness: If Something Feels Wrong, It Probably Is”.
Will publish it here when I receive it. π

Liv-
Going to blame this one on ‘movement’ women too, Liv:
1) women select (even in their own children) for socialization and manipulability producing infantilization.
2) women in education and workplace select for non-adversarialism producing men absent adversarialism.
3) subsequently men select for non-adversarial women.
4) women supply non-adversarialism for revenue extraction from males.
5) women continue hyperconsumption and extraction, while men abandon production and hypercapitalization and defense of the commons: it’s very cheap to be a male, because given fire, tools, something to hunt, and a few friends we’re generally happpy. While women’s acquisitiveness is endless.
6) so, the intersextual market equilibrium is preserved.
Why? You (Liv) as an outlier aside, the cognitively female select for non-regulation, hyperconsumption, and status by irresponsibility for commons and capitalization (which would produce conflict) and seek resources by extraction. Conversely the cognitively masculine select for regulation, production and capitalization, and status by responsibilty for commons and capitalization (despite producing conflict).
Poison the well and you get this behavior. It’s deterministic. And it’s obvious.
The market should correct. But we’re going to have a population collapse before it does, and that means an end to all our redistributive programs, and an spiral toward antisocial behavior.

True.
Interesting: In the early seventies when I wanted to take typing both because I wrote so much, and so that I could work with computer terminals, I had to have my parents intervene because it was considered a class for girls only.
I can still touch type today and at speedβ¦

The reason for the stress of PhD programs:

Such a great thread.
QUESTION:
Why do so many people find the PhD experience so tragically stressful, end up in therapy, or worse? What contributes to the stress?
Is there a difference between PhD program models (as in the oxford self directed vs some of the american managed)? Is it just the personnel? Or the subject matter? The workload? The difference in workloads between programs?
Or are we just admitting too many people into the programs without screening them sufficiently (and is it possible to screen people other than by trial and error)?
