If you are wondering why Microsoft become infamous for their multiple problems after almost every update, it's because they hired autistic programmers devoid of logic.

Down below is an obvious example of normal IQ designer Vs autistic designer who looks like logorrheic or ESL.

The more I hear the word autism thrown around, the more I realize different people mean different things by that word

Autism is not devoid of logic, its defining characteristic is the overadbundance and overreliance upon logic. Autists are too logical to function, they lack the intuitive and nonrational parts of the mind that allow us to navigate social function by gut. Nonverbals cant speak well bevause the ambiguity of language lacks logical structure and depends upon context and feeling. Saying autistics lack logic is like saying someone with hypertrichosis is lacking in hair.

I would be more surprised if they didnt hire autists given its a basic requirement of working in programming.
