Big tech is probably best in class due to total engineering effort and data sets devoted to it compared to something relatively small like id.me . FB, Google & Apple are probably some of the best of the world outside of stuff by the Ch

Yeah, pretty common AFAIK with the 'twice exceptional' (gifted and have other issues). The medical system is not as focused on helping people who are getting by well enough and there isn't anything obviously wrong with them.

I think ADHD and it's subtypes is probably a description of something like 8 different actual neurological causes, which all show up as 'ADHD'. I think one day we will figure out what they are and diagnose them separately, m

Mental conditions can have a lot of symptom overlap, which is why if you have a suspicion, you should get assessed by a neuropsychologist, and not the simple kind of 30 minute self done questionnaire type, but a proper 1 to 3 day assessment

IMO there is also 'culture' to various programming languages in their styles, standard libraries and so on. I think Java as language is actually fine, it's all the crap that surrounds it that makes it more unproductive or no

Figma is a C++ application compiled to webasm that paints to a blank canvas for the majority of it's usage. It's about as 'web' as the unity game engine compiling to web. In development they compile to a macOS app and

It would be a bit smarter and generalized than that, it would detect new chromium 'version bases' and differentiate based on that. Eventually it will stop working, but if you don't update your OS after a certain point, new a
