Optimizing Blog Speed

I have connected my blog with Google Analytics so that I can see things like average time spent, bounce rate, new v. returning visitor, etc. It is very helpful and interesting.

I just looked up how fast my page loads through Google Analytics. I was a bit surprised and embarrassed. It was around 7 seconds which is pretty slow especially since my users are probably only half interested/just wasting time on the internet. Who would actually wait 7 whole seconds for something they did not even care much about? No one, not in this fast-paced, impatient, give-me-entertainment-now-culture.

So I optimized it. I'm not sure how it all works, because I just followed a youtube demo. But it was excellent so here you go:How to optimize blog speed by eliminating render blocking

My site was so slow  because I have all these widgets that take forever to load. Now my site content will appear before the widgets are done loading. The loading time is down to 1.53 seconds!

At least I think that's how it works.

From watching this demo, computer coding looks a hella lot like DNA coding. On every blog spot, the html is nearly identical. There are just a few pieces of the code responsible for the different phenotypes. Ahh sorry, is my INTP showing?

Comment below. and let me know how long it took for your browser to load up my site! Thanks!

"Historians are bad communicators of their diligent research. 

Politicians are diligent communicators of their bad research"

-Sufia

This is why problems exist.
The silence of our wisdom is lost with the noise of our politics.

Historians, speak up! Connect with scientists. Connect with doctors. Connect with engineers. Connect with lawmakers. And most importantly, connect with the common people!

In our lovely democracy, the common people are capable of the most change.

Why do I write about this write now?

Today I attended a medical history book club at Case Western Reserve University's historical Dittrick Medical Museum. It was great. Enlightening, I felt apart of an elitist club,

The problem? Historians were communicating their observations with fellow historians. What good does this do?

If we were to confer back to MBTI, then historical societies are simply groups of perceivers who like to sit around and think about interesting things, but lack the desire to do much about the world's problems.

Most people are Judgers. They are doers. So perceivers, please educate the doers on what we should do. Its your societal contribution.

Sorry this post is so crappy. I'm starving and have this terrible migraine.

Which brings up a question: Is the mood of an INTP highly dependent on his or her physical condition? Because when I am just slightly hungry I get moody and all my cognitive functions are pretty much hopeless. Thoughts?

That's me...

About INTPs

Introverted, Intuitive, Thinking, Perceiving

Take the MBTI Personality Test HERE

I have noticed that INTPs dominate internet forums. There could be a few reasons for this:

1. INTPs spend an unhealthy amount of time on the computer
2. INTPs soul search a lot
3. INTPs are in need of confirmation and self actualization

Regardless of the reason, here is my attempt to logically define an INTP

1. We consistently have among the highest IQs of all Myers-Briggs Types
2. We have a tendency towards laziness
3. For reasons 1 and 2, we have a higher-than-average ability to bullshit.
4. Because the product of our BS is usually better than that of other types, we get away with it.
5. Because we always get away with BSing, we rarely work to our potential.
6. This amplifies number 2. Chicken or the Egg?
7. We value our thoughts more than the general consensus
8. This causes us to possibly be impractical and insubordinate
9. We have an amazing ability to cut through the heart of an issue and understand what must be done
10. Problem is, we often don't carry through what must be done
11. We are natural historians, philosophers, and critics. We are silent observers who often sit back and watch rather than take part
12. We care about humanity, but not humans. 
13. We hate ISTJs because of their tendency to be cliche, boring, judgemental, brainless followers. We fail to admire them for their dedication, timeliness, and discipline - qualities we lack.

Conclusions

1. We can be one of two things: a chameleon (assimilate) or a social pariah
2. We rely on soul-feeding (religious, charity, or service-related) activities to develop our EQ, which we lack.
3. This is why INTPs aren't as likely as other rational groups (NTs) to be atheists.
4. We need to gain discipline. This can be done by playing a sport or by pure will-power.
