It's at least consistent pseudo-science. I opened this page, saw it was Meyers-Briggs, and immediately thought "Welp, I bet there are a lot of ENTJ and INTJ". Lo and behold.

Exactly. I guess I don't totally understand all the complaints about "Pseudo-science" if its so consistent. That at least means something. This is the third time I've taken the test, and given the same result every time.

As I understand it, ENTJ and INTJ are no more than 9% of the general population[1] (12% max, if male only), and yet they are dominating the poll here; and that very much aligns with types expected to be common among the Hacker News population. That has got to mean something.

But then, I guess that's why I'm not a Guardian type[2] (Enforcing/Certifying specifically[3]).

Same. I think this poll and Myers-Briggs are only interesting insofar as they are a reflection of how we want to see ourselves.

I've variously gotten ENTJ or INTJ over the years.
