Hi
Thank you for taking the time to read this. This is all speculation.

Background
No formal education in psychology. Only experience of psychology is through certain cases and my own experience through the mental health service. I am autistic. I have a good educational background.

Context
Autism has historically been under diagnosed.
This claim is based on personal observations based on news headlines, especially under diagnosis in women.

So if it’s been under diagnosed in women, then the condition was once under diagnosed in everyone at one point.

Autism affects a very small minority of the overall population
For this claim, I don’t have population data. It’s just semi scientific consensus.

There aren’t a lot of autistic people and they are spread out amongst the population like a needle in a haystack where the hay is a neurotypical person and the needle the autistic person.

The double empathy problem is real
I have only read about this through ChatGPT summaries and explanations. For this claim I am trusting science authority through ChatGPT.

In a social situation A, neurotypical person will have an intention and an interpretation as will an autistic person who will have an intention and an interpretation. This leads to natural misunderstandings.

The overall argument I am making is:
For an undiagnosed person, which has been the case historically, the likelihood they would have encountered another undiagnosed or more rarely, diagnosed autistic person, is rare.

Therefore, they would have grown up interacting with neurotypical people which would lead to the double empathy problem. These misunderstandings would build and lead to negative social outcomes. Social isolation is a negative social outcome.

Based on how negative and frequent and the type of social punishment were, leads to the autistic person to develop different models of the world.

Positive treatment on how positive and frequent and the type of social praise also leads the autistic person to develop different models of the world.

These social interactions are fixed information for an autistic person. For neurotypical person, it is changing information. That’s why an autistic person builds these ways of navigating the world.

Overall
I’m describing my personal experience more and thoughts on that. However, I perceive like it’s valuable. I appreciate reality might be different! Thank you for reading!

I invite discussion this.

Hi,
I am currently reading about the single slit experiment. I’ve understood that the schrodinger equation is essentially solid maths that describes the experiments like single slit extremely well.

Then there’s the various interpretations that try to explain what the schrodinger equation is in physical reality.

However, we have multiple interpretations that all use the same mathematical framework. How can 1 mathematical framework give rise to multiple interpretations?

Only one interpretation can be correct. But they all seem to use the maths extremely well making them almost indistinguishable in terms of who’s correct.

Have I missed something or is this correct?

My goal was to figure out why when fired one at a time the particle appears as a dot despite the probability’s being spread out like a wave.

Hi, I got a survey done on a house.

I’m at that stage where I need to confirm the dates of exchange.

I’ve had my mortgage offer approved.

Searches carried out and completed.

I’ve just received survey results.

There is spray foam insulation in the loft space. The timbers are not visible. However, it seems to have been installed nicely. It’s within the rectangles made of timber (cells).

I need help!

I want to reduce the deposit amount by £30000 whilst keeping the mortgage the same. This is to cover the cost of replacing the entire roof.

My reasoning is:
They knew about the insulation but didn’t disclose. I know mortgage lenders don’t like spray foam insulation. However, now the mortgage team may find out and I’ll lose my mortgage offer + time wasted + legal and survey fees. Therefore, I should reduce the offer amount because they were about to trap me.

They didn’t know about the insulation and the price they were asking should therefore be further reduced because of this.

I’ve asked cgpt which said to replace the entire roof. What is the cost of this? It’s slate roof

What should my next steps be? Is there anything I should look out for?

Thank you and apologies if this post is a bit disheveled. My mind is a bit shook.

I was thinking about the climate and thus, carbon dioxide and carbon capture technology.

My knowledge is based on the words carbon capture. From my pov it’s literally capturing and storing carbon away!

So it seems to me that we could use sparkling water as a store of carbon! Carbonic acid doesn’t seem all that bad, it’s literally sparkling water!

Which brings me to my question physicists:
How much carbon dioxide could we store if we used up all the water in the oceans?

So, I thought the other day, that we are all interconnected by via the internet and globalisation.

Therefore, the world is slowly becoming one massive island, instead of multiple different ones. Since there is less isolated populations, does this mean that humans will eventually all converge evolutionarily?

If over time species diverge but since we no longer really have isolation, isn’t divergence halted?

How long would it take if divergence was halted for humans to all share similar physical features?
