A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I don’t like a billionaire like the rest of us poor people. But I’ve met quite a few working in a tech and being in leadership. I’m ADHD/spectrum, Zuck reminds me of me. I feel like a reptile when I’m forced to talk about shot I don’t want to, but talk about what I want like “smoking meats” I’ll talk your fucking ear off.

Trump isn’t a reptile nor is Clinton just rich assholes. I’ve also met non assholes that are rich. Zuck and Bezos were the non assholes.

Jokes aside, Zucc's non-verbal side reminds me of people on the autistic spectrum. This also gives people the creepy vibe, even though it isn't intentional. My favorite YouTube channel Charisma on Command made a good video about the subject.

Lol techies were never met to be in the spotlight… here I am doing talking engagements and being awkward as fuck. Thanks for the share!

I am autistic. I want to make friends with other people and not alienate them. So I watched that video and there’s a part I’m having trouble with.

The part about his smile going away pretty fast, which causes people to subconsciously assume it’s faked, has a comparison video to someone else. That person doesn’t stop smiling at all! So how am I supposed to figure out how long I need to drag out the transition between going from happy to neutral in order to not seem like I’m faking stuff?
