Hi, I'm new here, but nowhere else. I'm an early-retired R&D techie with no actual diagnosis but a very strong indication from experiences and an online test. I've always been a seemingly natural critical thinker and analyst, which I think comes from being Aspie/ASD-1. It was only problematic for me in terms of socialization skills (the lack thereof), which I've somewhat overcome as a necessity of my career. Tons of meetings, presentations, and networking helped me get much better at relating, but that's always been my shortcoming. But lately with a lot of time on my hands, I've been thinking about how it works. I'm starting to think my case stems back to a bias developed as an infant to learn more by taking in information myself than wait for people to teach things to me. I have a lot of related situational aspects that support the idea, and would love to explore it.
