I scored 12 out of 30 on tht quiz. Supposedly that score makes me
empathetic when it is convenient to me. That scares me. I was rather
hoping that that I am completely unempathetic to the suffering of

Btw the article claims that "OUR SCORING SYSTEM WAS CREATED IN
CONSULTATION WITH BERKELEY'S PAUL PIFF..", though it also adds a
disclaimer.

Piff is the researcher who is prominently profiled in the article.
