    No we didn’t, Mr. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Neurodivergence is something you’re born with. One can learn to act like a normie, but that’s not the same as being born as a normie.

      This is a conversation about computer interfaces, not about whatever unrelated issue you’re attempting to shove in.

      It’s been known since probably the seventies that normies have trouble with hyerarchical file systems.

      I was evidently using the term (in quotes, if that wasn’t clear enough) the comment I was replying to used for… frankly, I don’t know what; people who aren’t born knowing about hierarchical file systems, I suppose? (in any case, if you have issues with that term it’s not me you should be preaching to), and pointing out that we all start not knowing about them, and that they’re not that esoteric or arcane a thing to learn through usage, or education.

      Because here’s the thing: much like you seem unwilling to read or incapable of reading the thread you’re replying to before replying to it with a non sequitur, 99% of the supposed “trouble” people have with computer interfaces and concepts stems from their irrational refusal to read the fucking screen, think for a second about what it’s saying, and fucking learn what it’s telling them.

      That’s the only issue with what the comment I was replying to referred as “normies” and as I said it’s easily fixable through education, and removing the information from the screen so that not even the people willing to read it can evidently won’t solve anything and will only make the problem worse.

        Computer interfaces and neurodivergence go hand-in-hand, you know.
