No word yet on what these "neurodivergent" individuals will do, but maybe they can work for DOGE while at the same time topping the player charts on Path of Exile 2 ...
I think it is clearly an acknowledgement that neurodivergent individuals can be exceptionally bright talents and it is utterly stupid to leave that talent out of the pool.

This is a subject I will avoid for further discussion at this time.

So, Thiel hangs out on wrongplanet.net? I've seen this kind of thing floated on threads why autists need to rule the world....

I can see it. Those obsessed with railroads can run transportation. Those with a special interest in military hardware could run the weapons programs. Cybersecurity, well that is easily covered. Not so sure about giving the ones interested in police procedures much power unless you want the finest possible police state. No idea where the baseball stat people would fit in, though. Or the anime ones. So some creativity is going to be needed.

These sort of things are usually posted by people with a recent diagnosis and just found out they aren't unique and alone.
