Comments: Hi! Is This You?

[mbilokonsky]

You are a software engineer. You consider yourself an introvert, and you subscribe to the idea of "engineering time" where you like to work for extended uninterrupted periods because interruptions wreck you. You are used to being misunderstood. Ever since you can remember the people around you have been kind of baffling: they constantly fail to notice stuff that's really obvious and important to you, and then they have the audacity to get frustrated with you for not understanding them.

But whatever, you can deal with this. This is just how life goes, right?

Very interesting. Some of the things described are also common for HSPs (Highly sensitive people). https://hsperson.com/about-high-sensitivity-autism-and-neurodiversity/
