Rich people

Underlegislation leads to a bloated, extortionate upper crust that weilds disproportionate power over those who rely on said financial system. There is a balance, and the problem you outline is the lesser of the two extremes.

Well, when IQ was invented, it was assumed that well-adjusted people generally had higher IQs, and since there -are- people with incredably inhibited mental capability, and those people -are- considered neurodivergent by definition, it was assumed that high functioning neurodivergent people must also be “mentally deficient” if they can’t function properly in society, with some exceptions to savants who were recognized as being so highly capable in their field that it compensated for their “stupidity” in common matters. It’s also noteworthy that public understanding of mental health disorders pre-80’s boiled down to “r****d” and “schizo.”

Maybe publishing houses will never get the memo, but the Helldivers team knew to make a fun game first, and THEN added amazing graphics. If the market prooves they prefer that dev cycle ethos, it will bring change.

It’s more to the point that tasks are easier for neurotypical people to accomplish because the world was built for their minds. Neurodivergent people have to build up skills and workarounds for functions that seem to come naturally to NTs, eventually creating a mosaic of little crutches and scripts to follow in order to fit in or even function at all in modern society.

NDs don’t have “the box.” NTs are born with “the box.” Society says you must stand on the box (that it’s assumed everyone has inherently) in order to participate. So the ND makes their box out of the many tiny tools and workarounds they build to “stand on the box” that they don’t have.

Clippy never had a voice and tbh the one that comes to mind for him is not very easy on the ears. Like downpitched spongebob.

Could it not just be a war trophy? The frog representing some “barbaric hoard” that the great dragon king put down? What is it that makes it pagan besides the lack of a cross?

Ahoy should host

Yet language and abstraction are the core of intelligence. You cannot have intelligence without 2 way communication, and if anything, your brain contains exactly that dictionary you describe. Ask any verbal autistic person, and 90% of their conversations are scripted to a fault. However, there’s another component to intelligence that the Turing Test just scrapes against. I’m not philosophical enough to identify it, but it seems like the turing test is looking for lightning by listening for rumbling that might mean thunder.

Looks like the arduboy’s display. Might look for some C++ arduino libraries. Additionally, it never hurts to have gimp/PS skills for stuff like this, and there are likely plugins for both.

To be clear, you too go into a coma when your core body temperature gets low enough, the vibration just staves it off

I want to see if this applies to toddlers during motor skills development. Can a toddler’s brain tell the difference between falling because they stepped too wide or because the cat sprinted through their legs?

“Surely the weight of a few more gallons will push it th-- ah, fuck!”

Is this a joke or the craziest thing I’ve never heard. Is that like the brown note or something?

Piiiitchforks! Getcher pitchforks heeeere!

Everything seems like the biggest deal when you’ve been alive for such a short time.

“Cool beans.”
