Worst bits:
- You can tell someone the answer to their problem, and they just stare at you, confused, while their emotions have to deflate.
- When you realize you're talking more abstractly than they can understand.
- Or they argue really basic stuff, as they've never been exposed to it. E.g. language alters thought.
It's like talking to some sort of organic thing instead of what you think of as normal. Perhaps later humans and programmers will diverge genetically?
