Do they still use the term socially awkward to describe nerdy people who work in IT? I thought it was quite on point, at least back in the days.

- eyko 3y agoI'm not sure tbh (English being my second language), but I guess I would? I mean, we were all very young and very nerdy and thought it was pretty cool to be having dinner with RMS himself. Still, by our nerdy standards, he stood out as being a bit awkward – perhaps partly due to the language and cultural differences (even though he spoke pretty decent Spanish).
- johnisgood 3y agoMaybe he is on the spectrum. I probably am, although I have never bothered with a diagnosis.
