Initially that company didn't even have their own computer and mailed programs to a bureaux with a two day turnaround (I read previously on her website). So being in the office didn't noticeable speed things up.
The bureaux was a third party, I think their clients didn't have a computer either but I don't know.

Sending them through the postal service is mind boggling. I don’t think anywhere near this many neurodivergent people could have worked in IT back then. It would have been too much.
- ajb 3y agoIt would have required a different mindset, more like the degree of manual checking needed to write a mathematics paper. Plenty of mathematicians seem to be neurodivergent, but maybe not the kind of neurodivergence you are thinking of?
