Anyone else experience their social skills slowly deteriorate as their computer/programming/etc. skills improved?
I used to be a pretty cool and likable guy but over the years I became less confident and a nervous wreck in social situations.
stop giving a fuck you autist
be the computer hacker who sits in his dank ass cyberpunk apartment with red lights and computer terminals everywhere. wear a red leather jacket with a hawaiian shirt underneath, skinny jeans, smoke a cigarette and have a bottle of liquor with you, and have randomly strewn uzis and rifles with their ammunition on your tables/floor.
If I spend multiple days in a row in total isolation it deteriorates noticeably and I start to panic about things like going to the store or the bank.

I can relate. I don't dislike people or anything, but real life interaction is too damn slow and tedious. Not to mention the feeling that everything that happens in the outside world is beyond my control. Things are so fucked up in the world, it's like watching a loved one die slowly.

>never had any social skills
>too stupid and lacking in memory to gain any real skill involving computers or programming
I don't know why I exist.

Exactly. Almost getting anxious at how slow certain conversations go when they are useless small talk or have easily predictable outcomes as to how the conversation will go.

No, because I majored in networking, so having to collaborate and work in groups was a required practice. If anything I have become more sociable, though I have developed a nasty habit of abbreviating my text messages to points of not being readable. That and I try to complete my words in my word processor by pressing tab like a fucking idiot.
My social skills didn't really improve as my programming skill improved. I just kind of become desensitized and indifferent in social situations.

there's no reason this wouldn't be possible, at least for the top 10,000-commonly-used-but-kinda-long-words. but writer normies want to FEEL like writers which means pressing as many keys as possible. plus they all use M$word.

all of us are stupid, programming is all that's left for us to do
