  • @sk8rdman

    9 жыл бұрын

    SlideRulePirate A relevant point about that note is that if you're in a relationship where someone is asking "what's wrong?" it's too late for you to choose not to play. You're already in the relationship. If you value that relationship, you're likely better off discussing the issue, because avoiding it is as bad as neglecting the relationship.

  • @SlideRulePirate

    @SlideRulePirate

    9 жыл бұрын

    sk8rdman I see where you are coming from and I was that idealistic as well once, but...The partner who asks "What's wrong?" is demonstrating that the relationship is valued because it shows care and concern, through recognising the existence of a problem and is taking the first step in addressing it. Doesn't sound too much like neglect to me so far.. . The partner who replies "Nothing" is actually devaluing that relationship by being emotionally manipulative and is also insulting the intelligence of the other. It is, in effect, a tacit effort to shift the centre of mass toward the "Nothing" side so that going forward there is unequal investment and power in it. If you are on the receiving end of a "Nothing" then you have learnt something about the person and about how they really see you. Your self respect should be screaming at you that the relationship has either just changed or was never how you thought it was. If you carry on exactly as before you do so in the fantasy land of wishful thinking. Life is far too short to waste any of it being lead around by the emotional nose by someone who does not respect you.

In reality though, I don't think you could do that since class consists of many people with diverse personalities, etc.

    This makes sense with how friendships work, too. The friendships that I always see being the strongest tend to involve a lot more criticizing and small arguments. On the other side (and I've experienced this), friendships that fall through are the ones where you are actively trying to ignore the small negatives until finally, you've had it.

    I think one thing that I do question about this is the scoring system. I think some studies have shown that a negative reaction is more ...powerfully negative than a positive, because it is more unexpected in society. Perhaps that study only applies to first impressions, but I would think it probably would have some affect in a relationship, too.

    That's really nice to know that you actually argue a lot about small things. Well of course when you think about it now, it feels so obvious. When you constantly argue about small things and get them resolved early on, the issues aren't going to get any big scale and emotions involving those constant small arguments are also going to stay small so there's no fear of losing anything big or that eagerness to "win" the argument to gain something big. The arguments stay on civilized level and they stay small and life continues.

    Thanks for the great video, I love Numberphile! This one was especially cool in that this time I could share Numberphile with my girlfriend (who is HR, not an engineer like me) and SHE liked it too! I wanted more, however! It was great to see the one equation and scoring system, but I'd like to see the dynamics demonstrated more concretely. And the comparison with countries going to war is fascinating--but where's the example showing two countries and how they did or didn't go to war?

    What i got from this video is that your significant other is a nice person, especially to you since they got you a beautiful diamond ring. Also you generally speak up about things they do that bother you, but you are aiming to set your threshold higher to push your relationship toward the more positive quadrant.

The second may be implemented as a calculator using Bayesian statistics, demographics and some custom parameters (such as size of population and a safety factor)

    This makes a lot of sense. My dad's family airs all their problems all the time, and makes no secret of being in each other's business. The result: no divorces in the last three generations. My mother's family on the other hand is much more reserved and keeps things hidden and secret from one another, in the name of being polite above all else to each other. The result: four divorces in the last three generations.

    That is so weird that couples with a low negativity threshold get on the best. Does that mean that they constantly pester each other with big fights over little things? I cant see how I'd stay in a relationship if I am walking on eggshells knowing that my partner could have a strong negative reaction to something only slightly negative. It makes me wonder if the people designing the tests, and deciding whats positive or negative (or whats worth positive or negative points) are perhaps biasing the tests for the kind of person they are. I've seen disagreement, even among professionals, on what constitutes stonewalling; one party is stonewalling but when the other party does seemingly the same thing, no stonewalling is called out. So basically, how do you remove bias from the tests? And do any of the personality models factor into the equations? INTJ, etc? I would think that would change the results. Maybe not. But I dont think I could ever be happy in a relationship with someone who had a low negativity threshold, and so were always irritated. So I guess I'm a bit surprised.

    Limits are the ONLY way to consider such expressions. Without limits, 0^0 is undefined. Period. Otherwise, you run into the mathematical version of an unstoppable force meeting an immovable object: 0 to any power should be 0, but any number to the power of 0 should be 1.
