"I took the German or Autistic diagnostic. Results: probably autistic. Wittgenstein would have gotten the same result."
Also I'm fucking angry that the test said it would take 2 minutes, when it took me 12!

YOUR RESULT Autistic Not necessarily German about it. GERMAN 20% AUTISTIC 69 % Scores are independent - they don't need to add up to 100%. The patterns here are neurological rather than cultural, or at least that's the more parsimonious explanation. The intensity of focus, the difficulty with ambiguity, the literal relationship to what people say versus what they mean these are features of a particular kind of mind, not a particular national character.

Am I German or Autistic?
A rigorous diagnostic. 15 questions. One uncomfortable truth.

Raiders’ Kirk Cousins Makes Feelings Clear on Fernando Mendoza
The Las Vegas Raiders‘ QB room is beginning to take shape after the signing of veteran signal-caller Kirk Cousins. Then, on April 23, many expect the Silver and Black to take former Indiana Hoosiers QB Fernando Mendoza with the No. 1 overall pick.As a result, the Raiders would have an experienced QB to start if head coach Klint Kubiak doesn’t feel Mendoza is ready to take the reins.

It seems to me that those who value results are more likely to delve into using AI than those who value process.
I work with fine arts education—filmmaking—and for me, process is *everything*. And so AI becomes marginal, at best. But I can see lots of use cases—also in filmmaking—where AI can help achieve a result more efficiently.
