> As you note, most of them are generally true though

Not really, it's so mixed that I wouldnt advise a neurodivergent person to follow them, how would you know which one is good?

I don't think the author is sympathetic to autistic people:

"If you engage in less socially acceptable self-stimulatory behaviors that involve clenched muscles, quick jerky movements, rocking, or vocalizations, strangers will likely be afraid to talk to you, and even people you already know may be embarrassed to be with you in public."

You shouldn't be with people that are embarrassed to be with you, as those behaviors are usually not controllable, this is terrible.

Some good advice, but a lot of stuff is just weird or robotic and it has some surprisingly judgmental comments.

The gender page is just strange, most of those sounds so american or old fashioned.

edit: sources are mostly old, there are no sources from less than 10 years which is bad if you're trying to describe current social behaviors, the average source on the gender page is from 2002...

too expensive and never built on time, only countries where it's cheap are dictatorships where you can hide problems

> No, that’s not how hotels work. Do not disturb is a courtesy afforded to you. Every hotel checks room regularly as a matter of compliance. You don’t notice because these people are professional. The truth is you are not a guest but a customer.

In the US? There are several countries where that would be illegal.

It seems it's out of print:

"Lapham's Quarterly was placed on an indefinite hiatus on November 3, 2023, citing "a combination of financial challenges". The most recent issue, titled "Energy", was released digitally."
