> Despite a certain illusion of sociality involved in these activities, I am of the opinion that they are uniquely anti-social

Makes me wonder about my 'choices'- did my anti-social tendencies arise from my interest in programming (and math, etc.), or did it drive me to them?



I think about the same thing quite a lot. I remember having anti-social tendencies from a really young age. No idea why, I was just rarely interested in other kids. So I spent a lot of time dicking around with my computer. That paid off, but I got a little better with social skills later on after working at it. I always wonder how my life would be different if I didn't have all the computer escapism and worked on social skills earlier.
