Adaptive Behavior (journal) Puns

Hello,

I recently have undergone a a psychodiagnostic process for ASD. What I found remarkable during the end report, was how 'behavioral' it was. It was as if there was little room for motivations of certain behavior. Maybe certain autistic behaviors are just adaptive to the environment?

For example: someone has an interest in mathematics and programming. Psychodiagnostically, one could say that this is a clue to autism (but obviously not sufficient, other clues need to be there). But mathematics and programming are highly sought skills in society. It makes sense for the person to pursue these interests, as the person could earn a living with them.

E.g. someone is very reclusive. That can be a sign of ASD. But maybe it is because the person feels like he needs to study more, he needs to work on certain projects, to make up for the insufficient social skills, to participate in the economy.

It think of all these behaviors more of as potentially adaptive. But it seems like psychodiagnostic process mostly operates from a behavioralist method. The DSM definition for ASD also reads very behavioralistically.

What do you think about these issues?

Are you ever aware of your own negative coping mechanisms but your body seems to move on its own? It feels like you are arguing with yourself inside your mind where you are trying to say "I should not do this, I must stop" and it does nothing? Kind of like being held hostage?

Ok, at this point i'm a bit afraid to ask this, but i can't stop thinking about how this special trigger will handle the automatic firing mode. One of the best use of this feature - for me - would be the simulation of a real weapon's mechanism while it 'kicks back' the trigger to it's place after every single shot. When you fire a 3-shot burst, it does it three times, when you fire 12 rounds in automatic mode, it does it 12 times, etc. So, if you had the luck to test it: does the adaptive trigger work this way?

I'm writing a React application on my job alone. I started it from zero and after a lot of research decided to use Ant Design as it seemed a very complete library for both desktop and mobile (which I need because of the design specification), and I have a somewhat short deadline to deliver the project.

I struggled a bit with the Desktop part since I never used Ant before, but I was able to make it look exactly like the designer made it, and it is responsive. But I'm having troubles for the past week with the adaptive behavior for mobile, I'm not sure how I should tackle this. So far I'm using the Modal component from Ant Mobile to make it look like it is almost a native application, but it feels "clunky".

Have any of you used Ant Design on a similar way? Or even other libraries to create adaptive layouts? Am I doing this right or there is a better way?

TL;DR: I need advice on creating an adaptive application using Ant Design or other UI library. It is my first time not making just a responsive application, so I would like to know if I'm doing it right or if there are better ways to code it.

I might have both but now I'm starting to think that it might be more of an adaptive behavior issue.

I'm 25.

I can't drive.

I can't cook.

Maybe I don't understand executive dysfunction well, but it seems to be less of a learning problem and more of an organization problem, usually caused by things like anxiety or ADHD (correct me if I'm wrong), I have a learning problem, no matter how many times you teach me to cook on the stove or oven, I just can't keep it in my head.

I don't know what's wrong with me.

I wish someone would've helped me in my life, but all my life I just felt like there were unlooked things about me in my life, yet I get haters always calling me a "hypochondriac" which is annoying, because it's not in my head.

I'm 25 again.

I can't work.

I can't drive.

I'm filled with rage and wanted help but no one really investigated my case that well, they just said it was "autism" and while I do see traits of that in me, I just always felt like I had something else along with it.

I do have a duplication in chromosome 17p13.3 that can cause intellectual impairment and autism but no one ever said I had intellectual impairment.

I got a brain scan and I'm still waiting for the results.

They said it would take a day to get results and I still haven't gotten it yet.

Again, maybe I misunderstand what executive dysfunction is, but to me it just sounds like you can probably do a task, but can't because of some reason, maybe stress or can't think straight, (correct me if I'm wrong again), but again, with me, no matter how many times you teach me something, it just doesn't stick in my head.

Also with this irritating virus going around, it is preventing me from getting help.

I was actually planning on going back to therapy after many failed treatments of it, but then this ANNOYING AND EVIL virus came out of nowhere.

So I'm fed up.

I'm fed up with life.

I'm mad at ALL those people in school, the adults, and therapists, who failed me.

I've been socially isolated ever since 2012.

I've been social distancing before it was even a thing.

No one helped me.

They always underlook stuff.

Even that chromosome thing.

I never knew I had an issue.

It also causes low mucle tone too.

They underlooked that too.

The doctors.

They always underlook stuff in me!

I'm sick of it.

I'm glad I went through genetic testing though as my physical health got worse.

I just wish I could drive.

I just wish I could work.
I just wish I could move out.

I was late

Like having issues learning things, such as driving, cooking, doing laundry, living on your own, etc.

I'm 25 and I can't manage money, cook, drive, work, live on my own, do laundry, stuff like that.

No matter how many times I try to learn these things, it just doesn't stick in my head.

Other things stick in my head though.

Am I the only one?

I feel out of place with everyone.

I can't even spell that good or read good and not good with grammar.

So, I guess I'm Redditgnorant because most of my posts get removed, but maybe this one will stay.

Simply, I can barely talk to people anymore. After years of being ignored, unwanted, abused, and being stupid, quite honestly, it's made me realize I'm not socially adept enough for human interaction. I think it's actually starting to make me lose touch with reality, but the pain and effort of trying to talk to people has become more unbearable than the psychosis. It's strange because I mostly don't have the energy or desire for conversation or human connection anymore because it's been so traumatic, and so I just act like a robot giving facts whenever people talk to me, but since I could remember, I've had nothing but a burning desire for love and connection (that was always clipped or rejected) to the point where I actually would consider myself a cenobite. Maybe I should just accept that that aspect of me has passed away. I don't know why I'm making this post, because it's not like I'm going to do anything about it, but yeah. Maybe if anyone has any advice they'd like to share, I'd like to give you the opportunity to do that.

Currently taking a database internals course, and it seems like there's a lot of interesting tradeoffs when you are designing a data management system. Some of these tradeoffs seem to be dependent on what kind of behavior you think will occur once user's begin to use your database.

For example, you may design your database to have super fast reads for certain types of data but maybe it makes writes slow. So you're assuming that your user is mostly only going to care about the speed of reads.

One of the takeaways I've gotten so far is that, assumptions like this are dangerous because requirements change, can't predict user behavior, etc. So it got me thinking, are there any databases out there that use the databases internal statistics, do some cost analysis, and change their internal file structure/data structures/algorithms to something that better suits the users?

English is not my first language so I apologize if there's any bad grammar, happy to elaborate in comments if it doesn't make sense :)

My interests and personality seem to heavily adapt depending on what para I currently have. I dont willingly do this and there's literally no way for me to prevent it.

For example, if a para has some sort of interest in magic (ridiculous example but just throwing something out here), I will feel a spike in interest in specific things related to that, like Destiny, certain media, certain ideologies. Not only will I suddenly seem obligated to do certain things, but I will be suddenly interested in it as well. It will also change my behavior as well.

However this has backfired a few times, Death, selfharm, and a few other similar ones have become reoccuring Interests themselves before ..and have caused a bit of issues in the process. Except I have no control over it, its not entirely a matter of daydreaming, these things suddenly become my own identity without my permission.

To start I am do NOT have BPD (yes I’ve been evaluated by psychiatrists since my mother decided I was always the problem (and my father , sister, anyone but her). What I mean though is growing up your parents model how to function and obviously give advice. So for instance, if my sister and I confided we liked a boy...my mom would tell us what you do is buy him things, do things for him, (lovebomb him). If he didn’t reciprocate, instead of us learning that hey we’re not compatible, nbd! She’d say you find out why then change yourself to be more to his liking and then be persistent to until he comes around!! If he didn’t it’s because we’re just flawed and didn’t try hard enough or he’s an evil awful person. Literally had her CALL guys we dated that broke up with us to scream at them or to convince them to keep us. She will STILL call my husband behind my back and do this if she catches wind we had an argument. This is what I was taught growing up (among sooo many other ridiculous things) so it took me probably a few years into college to get that this behavior is not normal , not acceptable. Anyone else realize they were taught some very distorted ideas and/or ever worry they’re still doing little things that were modeled for them that make them their own worst enemy? Even people who’ve had relationships...did you develop bad habits from trying to cope with the abuse?
