  • C'est la vie de l'autiste

  • Native French speaker here - "C'est la vie autiste" would work better I think.

    "C'est la vie de l'autiste" would mean "This is life for the autists" - which, to me, has a slurry connotation.

    "C'est la vie autiste" would mean "This is autistic life"

  • Impressive that they managed to migrate a codebase of this size in a year.

  • is autism coded characters a thing?

  • His unemotionality. The way he speaks formally. His precise mannerisms. The way he always seems to be putting on a facade, like he's an alien pretending to be human.

    I don't think he was intended to come across as autistic, he just vaguely seems like it.

  • The ones that come to mind:

    • Captain Raymond Holt in Brooklyn 99
    • Sheldon Cooper from the Big Bang Theory
    • Mr Spock from Star Trek
    • Gus Fring (maybe), Gale and Lydia from Breaking Bad
    • Abed from Community

  • Is the Proton (Mail, VPN, Password Manager) ecosystem any good?

  • To me it depends on the context. In a new job, I take a humble stance and repeat to myself:

    • I don't know the full context
    • I don't know who is smart and and who isn't
    • I have my own biases

    And I just work according to instructions assuming the higher up's have a roughly good idea what they are doing.

    After a few months, you can start understanding the broader context and spot some mistakes. Then you can start making suggestions.

  • It's not a bullshit rationalization, she's absolutely right. And given her level of analysis, if her parents have a legit reason to ask her to fix her behavior they just have to say the actual thing instead of relying on trite bullshit.

  • I installed Windows 10 in a virtual machine...man, this is straight up dystopian.

  • I'm confused. What is rude about "Want to save this file"? What would be the non rude way of asking it?(English is not my first language)

  • Personally I treat my windows pc as a gaming console. I play games on it and nothing else. Then it becomes a non issue: so what if they track my gaming activity?

  • I'm in this post, and I like it.

  • That's not what I said. I just said the cost was significant, because you said "at no cost". I didn't say I would never pay it.

    Also, twice now you've relied on wild hyperbolic statements to make your point. If I may offer some advice - I think avoiding those is better online, as they makes your comments seem like emotional knee-jerk, which undermines your credibility.

  • The cost is dishonesty, which to me is significant.

  • "You're just high functioning!"

    Jump

  • A more generic and neutral way to make this distinction is low needs vs high needs (low need being roughly same as high functioning).

    Many people get upset when claims are made about intelligence. This alternate naming sidestep the problem.
