Around the world?

When I think of something being "fucked up", the last thing I think about is sex. Those words have grown a meaning of their own, away from the one they had.

I should be able to put, say, "this method is fucking up that variable" in a code comment without a puritan telling me not to do so. Which is funny, as it shows that we're going full circle.

Recoding and hosting and transmitting video is so expensive that I can assure you no alternative will ever pop up.

The fact that it's a massive trigger for someone doesn't mean it's less of a disease. Maybe the problem is the negativity the word "disease" brings, but someone who suffers autism is a diseased person.

I understand your point. Still I disagree. I want to call things by their name even if calling them by their name might make people feel bad (not seek help, etc).

Well according to your philosophy if you are suffering from a horrible illness you are not weaker, so there's no reason to feel bad about your illness. I wish I could wear that kind of rose-coloured glasses.

Let's agree to disagree, then. :)

Any kind of illness, including a mental illness, is a weakness.

Not being able to take a week or two straight to get away from civilisation would have me clawing the walls going stir crazy, and I'd probably find myself divorced.

That's interesting, as I recall many couples get divorced after being on vacation together because they spend most of the year separated but they discover during vacation that they can't stand each other.

Then either they won't fill the positions or the average salary is too high. (And I asked for median, not average)

Without knowing what the median salary per hour is in that part of China, this is just rage-bait.

Don't know what makes you think those computers are running a chipset that was launched late in 2015.
