I got help. Not when I was 18 when I needed it (could not finish my education), or at the very least nothing of substance but with a severe lack of empathy. As an adult, as part of my autism diagnosis was therapy understanding autism. That

Very good question. I explain her needs and desires do not necessarily align with his and that she must try to notice his (I describe them like do you hear he is yelling because of XYZ). This is largely futile. Because she notices he yells

Broken or not depends on context and who you ask. In the end we are all HR and as many of us must function in society. Add to that that there's an abundance of jobs due to babyboomers quitting the workforce (though less in USA accordin

Fuck BAP and all these people with ASD who don't have it severe and end up being in denial, proposing masking and "getting over it" and other tough boy talk. If you got diagnosed with ASD, you have ASD and there are tons of f

Military and police famously attract people (primarily males) with autism. I am not related to military but since war in Ukraine I followed a channel called Speak The Truth to understand how a US veteran with Republican leaning background (

It is a spectrum and every person is unique. With every disorder, you need to tick enough boxes in order to fall under the definition (currently using DSM-V though I know one org stubbornly sticking to DSM-IV as it benefits them). Not all b

I grew up with the society value of live and let live (if ye do no harm, do what ye will). Not that it applies to everything (it is relative not absolute) but as a rule of thumb. Yet there are societies where my wife would have to conform i

Yeah my first psychiatrist (who prescribed me citalopram vs depression/anxiety and methylphenidate vs symptoms of AD(H)D but only gave me GAD diagnosis) must've thought along that line. Cause he told me [paraphrasing] he could giv

A lot of women with autism mask it and perform the examples you mentioned in your last paragraph. It could also very well describe actors like Henry Cavill. Also, in DSM-V there is only autism spectrum disorder. And people with ASD can be v

My wife's second opinion meant she got her autism diagnosis because she previously got a different diagnosis. Meanwhile her sister got ADHD diagnosis but second opinion also autism diagnosis. Their brother is as obvious on the spectrum

I had a team diagnosis. Cost depends on where you live. Here in NL there's a waiting list (adult nearly a year pre-corona, since corona kids even longer) and you'll burn through your medical "own risk" (currently IIRC 48

There's a word describing that: geek.

Lockdown was heaven on earth. Suddenly normal to have only comms via internet, or play games or watch movies. No social BS like birthdays or drinking coffee with friends (they have coffee at home, too). Groceries delivered to the doorstep.

Many opinions? Huh? We both have autism diagnosis and there are so many traits we recognize in our children (5 y.o. female, 3 y.o. male) that in a few years during a heteroanamnesis they also will surely ding ding the boxes. From stimmung t

I'm diagnosed. No brain scan required, but heteroanamnesis was. People who know you well like your parents or partner will be extensively interviewed. As well as yourself, and you (and they) will get many questionnaires which will be c

Way before that there was SCSI. The low cost is price. Asus for example with their ASUS ThunderboltEX 4 allows you to have TB4 via PCIe card. The neat thing about USB4 was same as PATA and later SATA: widely and relatively cheap available i

My wife was manager at a pop podium, and she worked on a day where Prince might give a concert (it was a surprise concert while he was in The Netherlands, though the rumors were omnipresent). As a huge Prince fan, she was happy she was able

People have flat out done stupid, lethal things on psychedelics such as LSD and psilocybin. I'm one of them. I did a small dosage first time, and took a bath. Fell asleep and almost drowned.

"Robust", good joke. The purpose of these laws is to do what you're doing: mention they exist. But there is a huge process to actively demotivate the applicant to succeed. I know someone who actively tried to get benefits and

It all seems to go a bit quick. The Twitter saga took longer, but was equally dramatic. And seemingly surreal. Then there's Trump. Putin's war. I'm not sure anymore about anything being reality. Perhaps I'm stuck in some

You can make any USB keyboard a BT keyboard with a USB2BT (from Japan) and a battery. If it has LEDs you might have to disable or dim those (I had to enable tachyon mode on my keyboard).

Colin Percival's Tarsnap famously has such mechanic (though not a startup). It ensures you wouldn't fall into some kind of bus problem. However, it creates an incentive where the general public has an incentive to see the product

I'm also curious about the impact. Perhaps we'll see a meaningful Phoronix test on this one?

I don't even have 20 friends. But if you/your team have 15 acquaintances who are willing, you can set up five Google accounts to test the app. After all, all you need for a Google account is a phone number. Which, at least in my c

I mean there are so many epic sports moments. Thinking about football (you may know it as soccer) and not just goals Gerard's goal vs Germany, Maradona's hand of god, or Zidane's headshot versus Materazzi. So you'd have

Because then we'd have comments (I have showdead on) which would call him out, and caching and screenshots would provide proof. If he'd resort to harmful behavior the risk is simply too high as it would infract his reputation.

Either way, for me chances are the Dutch version with pictures and the English without pictures are adequate.
