 Have you ever heard of the autism boom that happened in Silicon Valley? In 2001, Wired magazine produced an article which stated that places like Silicon Valley and other big tech giants had a very high instance of autism rates. Now a lot of people had a lot of different theories, as you can imagine during that time, one of which being something in the water, another one being something related to silicone, and of course, good old vaccines. I know, ridiculous, right? The riveting conclusion to this saga was actually just undiagnosed autistic people, autistic coders, coming to work and live around these big tech companies. So the rise in autism in the population, that was down to just more autistic people being there. Could have fooled me.
