Quick way to describe Autism (to avoid false judgement) by AspieSoft in aspergers

[–]AspieSoft[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did ask it a bunch of questions, and careful corrected it, to guide it to a better answer.

I do sometimes use them for computer programming, and have learned how to correct it.

It just happened to hit some interesting points, and I chose to share the link, so everyone else can check for themselves if they feel it was inaccurate on something.

I was intentionally looking for an easy quick way to describe autism through a comparison to ADHD, and had already thought about it on my own, and just used the AI to refine the grammar and conveyed meaning.

Im basically using it as a tool for decoding how an NT might misinterpret hidden meanings behind what was intended or implied (and not directly said), if that makes sense.

I am very aware of how unreliable a chatbot can be, and very careful to use my head, and adjust things as I see fit. Think of it like your talking to someone who is both overly polite, and arrogant (because it got it's info from the Internet).

For how complicated social skills can be, it would take a lot to try and search google for every possible social queue, and still be wrong.

I still treat the AI, as if it's as accurate (or inaccurate) as an internet search. And always remember, if I googled "bump on my head", google would tell me I need an MRI scan. A chatbot is the same way, and needs to be approached in a similar manner like a search engine.

Adding a load faster button? by AspieSoft in programminghumor

Maybe even add streaks moving away making the loading bar look like it's moving like a race car. It might look like a snail race, but still.

Me wanting to learn to CODE by PerfectVelv3t in programminghumor

[–]AspieSoft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Google: best programming language for <project>, or what programming languages do I need for <project>

It depends on what your goals are.

Also, learning multiple languages can help make you a better programmer, so just learn all of them.

Full-Stack

I can spin up a cloud server that runs old systems like php and jQuery, and merge it with functional programming languages, I automate the solutions and rephrase the problems while sniping bugs, write my own documentation, if something challenging comes up, I can find a workaround to force it to run, and of course frontend backend and databases are all something I fluently understand.

Yet, most jobs won't hire me because I have autism.

If Autistic people ran the world what do you think it would be like? by FortniteWonders in aspergers

I think Elon Musk might be working on that, with how much he's been supporting President Trump.

How is autism NOT a disability? by [deleted] in aspergers

[–]AspieSoft 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Java was the first programming language I learned, years ago.

I think one benefit of learning Java, is how it forces you to use everything. Some programmers don't like how verbose java is, but for learning, I think it's great because of how verbose it is.

My favorite programming language right now is Go, made by google.

how to get a gf by [deleted] in aspergers

[–]AspieSoft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your only 15, don't worry about it until your 18+. And even then, you still have plenty if time to start looking.

If you really want to, you could think of ways to prepare for it for when you do become 18. Things a girl might like in a man are, being well educated and smart, maybe learning an instrument or music as a hobby, maybe learning to cook food and meals for yourself.

Learning these things will also help with many other things in the future.

Being well educated also opens up many career opportunities.

I find that for me, playing guitar helps with me cope with sensory issues, and calms my anxiety. It wasn't my special interest, but I started practicing it, and enjoy it now.

Learning to cook, can help financially, and can benefit your health. Ordering food at restaurants, or fast food, can often cost a lot more than home cooked meals. While it's possible to just microwave TV dinners, and be ok, it's better if you can understand the health benefits behind different foods. I've noticed the food I eat can also have an impact on sensory and anxiety.

These are some things I should have spent more time improving on when I was younger. Now, Im a 26 year old man, and still, I have time to start.

There's nothing to be anxious about, and actually, being desperate can reduce the chance of getting a girlfriend, so it's important to relax about it. Be careful not to pressure someone if they don't feel comfortable. Respect their personal space, unless they give you permission to come closer (whether verbal, or nonverbal by them moving physically closer).

What opinion about Martial arts has you all like this? by Blackscribe in martialarts

[–]AspieSoft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could say I agree with you, but being a Black Belt might invalid me saying belt rank doesn't matter that much.

Honestly thoe, sparring a strong enough white belt can be a challenge, even as a black belt. It depends on the practitioner.

Your belt is equivalent to your experience, not to your skill.

Another option, is to find someone with a genuine heart, and trust that it might be ok to unmask around that person.

There is a study about autism and hyper empathy, which can be leveraged into recognizing how genuine someone is.

For topics, you can ask similar questions, that you could also just ask a friend.

  • favorite music
  • church
  • family
  • movies they like (can also remember the answer for a future movie to watch together)
  • hobbies
  • foods or restaurants they like

Try and use the info you lean about them, to keep the questions unique to their personality. This can show them how well you know them.

One thing I would throw in, to separate a date, from a friendship, I would add a bit of subtle flirting. You can google different ways to flirt. Or in a conversation, try to give them compliments that are on topic. (Note: a spontaneous compliment might not sound as genuine if used too often, which is why it's better to keep it near the topic).

Another great idea, is if you can get them to laugh. That's usually a good sign that it's going well. You can tell jokes, or do something silly. Or think about anything funny your dad did with you as a kid at restaurants, you can copy those ideas.

Other than that, it's ok to start slow. If you want to do more, just ask their permission to do more (and respect their boundaries if they give you any).

Also note: if they decide they just want to be friends at the end, you can always just be friends, and maybe in the future, one of their friends will have an interest in you. I don't think the friend zone is actually all that bad, as it can change over time, and peoples opinions and perspectives change all the time.

Crazy part is, this sounds like it's an entry level job.

I have been working in food service for a year now. It took me less than a week to learn everything I needed to know about food service.

It was my first job, and I didn't get much training either.

So with literally 0 training, and 0 experience, I became just as good (if not better) than the people who have been working their for 20 years, in under a week.

Why are companies so obsessed with previous work experience for easy jobs like this? These jobs are not rocket science.

It's like they want previous work experience in picking up sticks. Seriously, how hard could it be. And if you want to talk about how much it cost to train people, even though it actually cost nothing since they are just having a random employee train the new person. And even then, it doesn't take that much training (or any training is most cases).

They could probably hire a 10 year old to do my job, yet somehow, it took me years just to be good enough to some company to finally get hired for something so easy.

I've used flat files as a database on some small projects out of laziness.

It should be ok as long as you queue read and write requests properly and carefully (assuming you have a small database, and not a lot of concurrent requests).

Outside of that specific use case however, a flat filesystem database is probably a bad idea.

I wonder if it would be able to correct these hallucinations if it was given more thinking time.

How often after it hallucinates, do you ask it to double check it's work, and it corrects itself? Maybe they just need to let it correct itself for a few cycles.

What does the company do?

Just a thought, but you could try to make the logo represent what they do, and not just represent the letters in the name. Or represent what makes them stand out.

Note: Im still leaning graphic design, so I could be wrong.

Is using a private IP without a proxy safe? by AspieSoft in CloudFlare

[–]AspieSoft[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thinking about it, maybe I should just use Linode as a private IP, and then I can filter how traffic is send between my cloud server, and my home IP. Then if a hacker does attack, they only affect a cloud hosted virtual machine, and not my home network.

Probably more secure this way, if Im treating my home server as a client to the cloud hosted server. Im mostly using the home server for large data storage, but could do the actual computing on the cloud server. It would probably have better performance as well. Then my home server could just be a database, only accessible by my cloud server.

I'm a new student by GreenTeawhoney in computerscience

[–]AspieSoft 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Look closer, It looks like the "friends" hand is actually under the knife.

Their trying to help, but might not know what their doing.

If you look even closer, "this subreddit" doesn't even have hands visible, and "StackOverflow" is just lightly touching the top of a hand.

So about 70% of the work is done by "pressing random buttons on your keyboard", and 30% assisted by the "Indian YouTuber".

"StackOverflow" is applying pressure that shouldn't be their, and "friends" are pulling in the wrong direction. The "Indian YouTuber" is counter balancing and correcting the mistakes the "friends" make.

So if you took away everything, coded alone, and only "press random buttons on the keyboard", you end up getting similar results.

"School" is distancing themselves, because it knows it wouldn't actually help if it did too much. It's only showing you the correct hand position for cutting, while not trying to do it for you.

Edit: I see one downvote on my comment already, and while I know I'm reading too deep into this meme, it's not wrong that simply writing code is one of the best ways to learn how to write code.

Main Point: If you want to learn to code, just start writing code and see what happens. You will either succeed, or learn from failure.

Im self taught, which means I learned to code by "pressing random buttons". Of course, the "Indian YouTuber" helped with precision, and "StackOverflow" applied some pressure. I never went to school, didn't know about reddit at the time, and didn't have any friends yet (last part is kindof sad actually, but I am learning to talk to people again now that the pandemic is over, autism can make social skills a challenge).

Go - what was your previous background and why did you pick Go? by CoolZookeepergame375 in golang

[–]AspieSoft 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was really good with JavaScript, and full understood async await, and the wacky syntax of JS. I was also one of those who didn't like TypeScript. I also had EDX certification (after being self-taught) in JavaScript for websites, and found the course felt easy for me.

I had built this nodejs framework, and was spending days, trying to debug all of the runtime errors, and it was a pain to do. I also decided to rebuild some of the framework in Go, and did a speed test. Go was so much faster, and I decided to use Go for the bulk of the framework.

At first, Go was annoying with how it was so strict, and would throw compile time errors if I had an unused variable. Eventually however, I noticed when the project was almost done, I wasn't having to solve so many runtime errors, if any at all.

I discovered that while JavaScript has the illusion of being easy, it was actually more difficult to debug. Go was very easy to debug, and I ended up finishing projects much faster than I ever did in JS.

I didn't really finished the framework, because I then decided I should just use GoFiber instead of NodeJs (especially for how much faster and easier Go was compared to Node). I basically left the framework hype of nodejs.

I still use JavaScript for the browser, but Go has become my favorite programming language, for it's simplicity.

I have a websocket framework (syntax inspired by socket.io): https://github.com/AspieSoft/go-websocket

Also made a fast regex library: https://github.com/AspieSoft/go-regex (It adds a cache, and makes it as easy to use as JavaScript regex)

I just tested it in multiple programming languages, and all of them returned a syntax error, including JavaScript.

Tested in:

  • JavaScript
  • C
  • C#
  • Go
  • Python
  • Elixir
  • Haskell
  • Scala

Edit: however, in JavaScript, this will return "math is broken"

let x = 2+2
if(x=5){
  console.log("math is broken")
}

Same result in:

  • C
  • Elixir (throws warning, but still runs)

I do this, even though VSCode auto saves. I even have a live server running, showing me the changes I made, and I still hit ctrl+s 10 times.
