    Questions About Coding

    It definitely is. And web design is extremely competitive right now. It was easier to get into, and now they want you to have 5 years of experience with every single technology and to swear by loving it and only wanting to do that for years and not be interested in anything else. I applied for...

    Questions About Coding

    Maybe I'm not modern, but I meant talking to an actual librarian to verify. Job postings and information online are often divorced from reality Or both 🙃

    Questions About Coding

    I see 🤔 True, it's used for website design and user interface design I find it hard to believe. Is there a way to verify that information? I don't think anyone besides IT professionals actually deals with those. Regular expressions are a small topic and indeed useful in different data...

    The link between use of anti-epileptics (e.g valproic acid) in pregnancy and autistic offspring

    Medications can and do damage fetuses. Fetuses are far more sensitive than adult humans. Also please don't use this tiny font, it's hard to read even when wearing glasses. I'm sorry, I can't read that.

    Questions About Coding

    What kind of coding do they ask for? Is there a specific language, application, technology? You're right that programming is a very broad topic and imo you're asking good questions, so no worries. Isn't the application that the jobs you're looking at want data analysis? My least favourite...

    Title: Beyond the Number: What IQ Often Misses

    I'm not sure how to respond or how it relates. I don't think I know in person anyone who was a bright child and then isn't an very intelligent adult. On the internet... yeah, on the internet I have met people like that, but it seems like the effect of who you compare yourself to - it's frequent...

    Professional Autism Descriptions Vs Practical Examples ?

    I can't remember, was it that you were attempting to get ADHD diagnosed? Or was it your own initiative to diagnose for both ADHD and ASD? My parents suspected I might have autism when I went to preschool and on my first day (I was 3) didn't know how to socialise and divided the number bananas...

    Professional Autism Descriptions Vs Practical Examples ?

    I didn't self-diagnose before my therapist pointed it out. I had no interest in it Although the Asperger's label followed me around since early childhood.

    Professional Autism Descriptions Vs Practical Examples ?

    Neither of us has said that tbh about both forums and mainstream social media. You can't really know what conditions or neurotype someone has just by looking at a few posts. But I meant that in mainstream social media there are lots of people who strike me as what I described above, but don't...

    Professional Autism Descriptions Vs Practical Examples ?

    Hm? Why so? I think the opposite is the case xD That forums tend to attract more autistic people, and mainstream social media are for normies and it's hard to tell whether most self-proclaimed autistics are indeed autistic or have adhd, personality disorders, trauma, bipolar etc. For someone who...
