While I agree questioning how he would know, we can’t use the general population metric and apply it to a specific population, in this case, software engineers who work at MAANG, or just competent enough to pass the interview

I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s a larger percent population of ADHD in MAANG tech vs in the general population.

But to try and counter myself, there’s typically a larger population of ADHD (or it’s permutations) in trade jobs (though I argue programming is a trade skill, just a new breed in our digital age. Though I digress)

I recently read a study that suggested around 30% of incarcerated individuals in the UK probably had ADHD or similar.

Just for another fun data point.
