Sounds like you don’t even dispute his point, so how could you have refuted it? To your point about relevance : nobody here has claimed this competitive advantage is wildly useful in a “first world” context, something the GP actually framed

You reject his premise but you did not refute it. Reiterating the adaptive struggles you and other ADHD sufferers face does not invalidate the idea that it is a competitive advantage under certain circumstances.

Purely out of ignorance - what's the context here? I'm not in this space, but afaik Ghidra was released years ago so I'm guessing this post was triggered by a recent development, but it's not clear what that might be.

It probably should. The amount of ancillary and contextual information required to correctly distinguish between legal and illegal settings and application is invasively high.

Your observation is neither novel nor helpful. People suffering are often not suffering due to a lack of information, or because they’ve never taken middle school history.

Possibly due to social stigma. I don’t know that what I’m describing can be attributed to the safety net itself, but many countries with excellent social safety programs also have a low social tolerance for failure. This is not limited to u

I can’t pretend to know the man’s mind but I always got the vibe he didn’t really feel at home in the cultural landscape of the late 60s and onwards Personally I think his contributions would be welcome in any era, and either way “this is t

That’s quite the narrow goalpost you’ve set up. What happens if a problem can’t be expressed as a Jenkins pipeline operation?

At my current company, management is an entry level position that recruits fresh grads. It’s essentially secretarial work under a different name. So certainly in our case there’s no justification for a manager out earning any individual con

The case involving a large and well known religious organisation that “employed” an army of unpaid volunteers? Can’t see how that relates to the broad description you provided earlier.
