First Impressions…

Mentioned I think I'm someplace on the autistic spectrum, they seemed to doubt me after knowing me for all of 30 minutes... Meanwhile here I am rearranging the money-notes in my wallet so that each of the 3 sections contains a round number with the smallest at the front and the largest at the back #neurodiversity #autism #ASD

When your brain constructs sentences like a program:

1. Action (nouns, verb)
2. Descriptors (adjectives, adverbs)
3. Type specification (pronouns, names)

Then end up asking yourself; is this a programmer thing, a neurodivergent thing, or maybe even both?

Welcome all y'all new followers! I am here to make music, have fun in life, advocate for cannabis decriminalization, and if there's time... complain about working in tech, cope living with #ASD plus #CPTSD, but also post cat pics.

Ninth Circuit Reverses Probation Sentence for Paige Thompson: https://reason.com/volokh/2025/03/18/ninth-circuit-reverses-probation-sentence-for-transgender-hacker/

As with the recent case involving Conor Brian Fitzpatrick (aka "Pompompurin"), the appellate court found that the district court's time-served plus probation sentence for Paige Thompson was too significant a departure from federal sentencing guidelines. Although the court could properly consider factors such as being transgender and autistic, they shouldn't have ignored other sentencing factors so much.

Dealing with something ridiculous at the moment that is a great example of just how 'easy' it really is to close down exposed data:

Found a server recently with no access controls at all that was hit by ransomware in May 2024 and most of the data is encrypted. (It got hit by an automated script, it wasn't targeted by a ransom group)

Found a non encrypted directory:

The company is STILL uploading, monthly, hundreds of millions of records of logs with their clients data.

Tried to reach out to the company, nothing. Company is from AUS so I tried ASD, nothing.

I sent an email to AUSCERT, they validated with me the issue and forwarded the information and my contact to ASD, they also tried to reach out to the company themselves.

Not a word from anyone and the server is still exposed a month after my initial alerts.

Logs are still being uploaded to the server so it's obvious no one did anything.

So what am I supposed to do here?

No kidding about struggles to modulate facial expressions and vocal tone https://www.nytimes.com/2025/03/20/opinion/autism-diagnosis-rfk-vaccines.html My take about this, amongst other issues, here https://nikolaskozloff.substack.com/p/reflections-on-autism-evolution-and #autism #ASD #neurodiversity #Trump #aspergers #evolution #science

Emergent Divergence: Should ADHD Be Part Of The Autism Spectrum?

Autism is associated with a wide array of co-occurring conditions. In fact, it is widely discussed that Autistic people have "all the things", meaning that we are prone to conditions that are otherwise considered rare or in some cases problematic.

Parents of "twice-exceptional" children - those with both learning challenges and advanced skills - may choose #homeschooling to address the "masking" phenomenon and provide more individualized instruction. A scholar explains the benefits: https://buff.ly/ymllsgx

For the avoidance of doubt, I would rather be autistic than either Donald Trump or Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
And I don't just mean now, I also mean when they were at the peaks of their physical and mental abilities.
Even then, I would still rather be autistic.

Me: I need 2 pills of that medication
#ASD: if you take that one and that one from the blister, it will make a nice pattern!
Me: yeah! Let's do that
*critch* *critch*
Me: there, done.
ASD: where's the pattern?! YOU TOOK 2 THAT WERE JUST NEXT TO ONE ANOTHER!
Me: ADD? The pattern?
#ADD: pattern? What pattern?

They're back!
If you're in Wellington (Aotearoa) area this week please come to this show during Fringe festival!
Neurodiversatile! This group of young, neurodiverse artists and their friends will inspire you with their musical fearlessness and versatility.

I watched a TV show today that unexpectedly and thoroughly threw my empathy switch. Now I have no spoons.

I hate the injustices in the world--that there is so much wrong that the wealthy and powerful couldn't seem to care less about.

And it's just another thing that helps me to see my #asd. Injustice, unfairness, makes me crazy.
