To your point about relevance : nobody here has claimed this competitive advantage is wildly useful in a “first world” context, something the GP actually framed explicitly.
Personally I don’t think one needs to invoke post apocalyptic scenarios, as there are plenty of “first world” professions or scenarios that benefit from the same skill sets - military, emergency medicine, firefighting, just to name a few. The first world isn’t all spreadsheets and jira tasks.
- emptysongglass 2y agoI honestly don't know where you're going with this. You're theorizing about a condition you presumably don't have and then extrapolating your theories to professions you imagine to fit your idea of the "skillset" people with ADHD supposedly have. There is not a skillset attached to the diagnosis of ADHD. There is no time to develop a skillset when the mind is constantly roving and unable to concentrate.
- doktrin 2y ago> a condition you presumably don’t have… extrapolating your theories… You presume incorrectly, and they’re not “my” theories, but they do track with my personal observations and experience. https://www.fs.usda.gov/research/treesearch/38511 https://www.fs.usda.gov/research/treesearch/38511
