Yep. The author is a legit sociopath. This should in no way be considered acceptable human behaviour.

Wow. Awareness of the lived experience of others: nil points.

If I'm more charitable than you have been, I'll grant that you simply haven't carried the burden that I have, and that is unfair for me to expect everyone to have moderate levels of empathy, or to actively try to understand their fellow humans.

A fair proportion of the people who pushed OP to the top of HN are probably just looking to live a life in accordance with healthy social values. Try not to be a cunt, would you?

While I don't attempt to solve life problems by creating a database and writing a bunch of code, I think you're going a bit overboard.
A sociopath is someone who recklessly and remorselessly harms others to get what they want.

This guy is probably at most ADHD or Aspergers, and simply forgets to contact people he doesn't physically come across on a regular basis.
