Just read this, thought it was a pretty standard rant about the state of the internet today, then realised it was posted in 2011.
Downright prophetic.
"Facebook now stands as taking over a decade and a half of the dream of the World Wide Web and turning it into a miserable IT cube farm of pseudo human interaction, a bastardized form of e-mail, of mailing lists, of photo albums, of friendship."
Ableism
@aspie4K I don’t know why I was surprised, but I *was* surprised that this didn’t raise more of a fuss. It was startlingly hateful speech against a large group of people, not just Elon.

People who hold ableist anti-autistic views have no place in the tech industry. I wouldn't even trust #AlexMartinez to serve me at McDonald's. Such vitriol against autistic people... I get the feeling if he spots that I'm socially awkward he'd spit in my food.
Society makes me depressed at times. You can achieve so much you become the richest person in history and even the so called "tolerant left" woke cult still attack you not based on your actions but because you were born with autism.
I doubt Elon would be successful to anywhere near where he is if he was born an NT.
Elon aside, who do these NTs think engineer, code, and maintain the tech they depend on? I work for a big tech company and can assure you it's 90% autists.
I don't care what you think about #ElonMusk but if you support the horrible #ableist comments made by this #Twitter #birdsite executive #AlexMartinez against people with #Aspergers #autism plz just unfollow.
Hate on #Musk all you want but there's no excuse to attack someone for being #autistic. This is not #progressive it is #regressive #bigotry.

But it means that I can build what I want and own the things I build completely. Maybe not being able to make money by investing in #FOSS is outweighed by the benefit of being able to bend the software to my will and being able to make my own thing out of it
