looking for fellow goof

Post Reply New Topic

Howdy folks,
I'm a L1 autistic, pretty direct, love absurdist humour, hate political correctness
looking to meet other aspies, pretty burned out after a lot of misunderstandings and breakups.

I studied physics but work as a software engineer now. I like skiing and dance but I don't
get to do enough right now.

Feel free to PM

Edit : ok, Idk what is going on with the PMing maybe I just signed up. I will repost later I guess.

I think you need to "age" here a bit more before one can send and receive PMs. I just tried to send you one and was not able to. Anyway, welcome.

Welcome to WP! I hope you find some interactions you enjoy here.

P.A. Your age is now displayed.

Welcome to Wrong Planet.

So you studied physics but work as a software engineer. I received my degree in Physic but when I graduated there were very few jobs available of physicist. So I got a job as an Engineer. And that worked well for me.

Welcome to the site.

Welcome to Wrong Planet!

Welcome to WP

Always looking for direct people that are goofy as well. Welcome.

welcome, you meet all sorts and kinds here! glad you are with us.

Greetings and welcome. I bet you'll come across many goofs on this planet

Hello! Welcome! I am also new here, L1, a programmer, and can enjoy some absurdity. I'm very progressive but also hold a strong distaste for political correctness. People who prioritize policing the words you use care more about who can properly show their group allegiance than whether or not your principles are solid. They don't care if it's a misunderstanding or not, because they're looking for people to shun.

Do you have strong feelings about the structure of code? I work in video games, where mostly people are fine with it being very messy inside since they think they won't have to maintain it. They don't realize that you do have to work with that same code until it releases, at minimum, and that can cause a lot of problems when you come up on the deadline... so I get to be the maintainability and project management messenger to a lot of little developers.

Dance and skiing sound fun! I remember when I did more of that too. I guess the desk job is probably one of the things that makes it feel hard to do seemingly unnecessary athletics, even if actually they make your life better and are more important for people who don't move around at work.

Wilkommen!
