Asperger’s is an older, outdated term to refer to a part of what we call today the Autistic Spectrum Disorder. Basically, it’s all the same disorder, but it has different ways it presents itself.

If the law was coming into effect at a known date, there may just not be much interest in prosecuting going forward.
Swipe it up rather than sideways
Tech lead here, but same idea. The chaos and variety is exactly what I love about my job too.
I soldered a Planck kit, then an Iris v2 kit, then bought a recent Iris with hot swap and all that jazz when the first started acting up and I couldn’t figure out why.
I want to start actually making stuff - really interested in a Dactyl-like contoured board - and I have most of the stuff I would need for the electronics side of things, maybe upgrade the cheap soldering iron. The one thing holding me back is cases. With kids and a dog, I’m honestly not too interested in leaving bare electronics sitting on my desk. I want a pretty case too, and that mostly means 3D printing. I never had any room for a printer, and online printing costs were pretty prohibitive in my area last I checked.

I totally agree with you that I don’t need to make friends at work. I 100% clock out at the end of the day and make a hard cutoff between personal and work life. I can even work with people I personally dislike just fine, as long as they’re not making things harder for others.
But OP was talking about camaraderie, which is mostly just about being generally pleasant to be around - as Merriam-Webster defines it, “a spirit of friendly good-fellowship”. Nobody likes to deal with the moody guy who doesn’t want to talk to anyone either, including the other moody guys. There’s definitely a minimum level of camaraderie required not to make things harder for everyone involved. You don’t have to lean into the “we’re a family” BS not to be unpleasant.
Never doing video calls, I suppose?
Starting a new tech lead role next week after getting laid off from my job of the last 4 years, so this week (as well as the previous), I’ve been and will keep cramming in as much golf as I can. I played a lot as a kid and teen, stopped around 17yo, then started again last year after a ~15 year hiatus.
American Idiot and the what, 3 albums before it and all the following, were all on Reprise Records (Warner). American Idiot specifically had some very strong marketing campaigns. If one really does subscribe to that “selling out” rhetoric, they did so much earlier than that.
Did these conservatives miss American Idiot, or are they just being reactionary as they so often are?
The F stands for “free” as in “freedom”, not “free beer”.
