He's not autistic you idiots, he's from Norway, so has to take his time to speak English. Jesus

Einstein did have symptoms of Autism, very strong ones. Watch the video. And you asked for an example of a major figure in "computer hard and software" and you got one. Don't use quotation marks and put something the other person didn't say. That's a sign of dishonesty.

tl;dr - You are a butthurt autist who's precious feelings are hurt by the harsh truth :D Not the first one, buddy, not the first one.

And tl:dr means game over. It was a checkmate from the first reply, and as I predicted to a friend you ultimately would just pull out strawmen, ad hominems, ignorance of terms and then make an excuse to disappear.

Bye bye.

Oh, i'm not going to disappear, you silly boy. I just got bored of writing a serious replies to you. What's with your contsant lies about autists helping millions with their inventions.

I never said that this guy is best at chess because he's autistic. If anything, he manages to be best at chess in spite of his autism. I guess that this feat indeed deserves some shred of respect from me. Maybe.

There are no such thing as "autistic talents". Just because somebody's brain is damaged and able to effectively focus on only one task does not means that this person is "talented". Retarded is a more appropriate word.

And please, i listened to this "autists are talented" bullshit for years, and none of you ever provided any kind of respectable source. It's always the same old attempts at labeling any great artist or inventor as autistic.

No such thing as autistic talents? Really? You're discussing a video about the #1 rated chess player IN THE WORLD and claiming he's #1 because he's autistic and then claiming that autistics don't have actual talent. This is called double-talk. A talent developed because of autistic focus (though that's not the only thing) is a talent that exists BECAUSE the person is autistic. So yes, the phrase "autistic talent" (a phrase meaning a talent of or related to being autistic) is correct.

Autists are useless because most of them(or should i say most of you?) are pathetic social retards. Whining about their "struggle with the harsh world", demanding to be treated as if they're special, refusing to ever acknowlege your own mistakes, and again, whining whining and whining about anything and anyone who disagrees that they're "special and unique people with great innate talents". Most useful of all? Thanks for making me laugh.

What did I say about a struggle with the harsh world, when did I ask for special treatment for them? What *I* said was that they don't live like normal people do but they don't enjoy normal style social lives anyway so they do what makes them happy, and the things they have created and helped develop with their focus and talents have helped billions. Which means there's nothing especially undesirable about having them or being them.

Your strawmen and attacks just show that you're failing.
