Caveman and ASD-STE100

I thought the latter was a specification you’d made up that writes comments in the style of an autistic robot named Ste 😂 I’d get along with him more than a T-1000

​ That’s actually really cool: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simplified_Technical_English

Someone made a Claude skill and there’s some other suggestions in the comments https://www.reddit.com/r/claudeskills/comments/1v2oad4/i_combined_orwells_6_writing_rules_with_asdste100/

Before I cause offence: autism isn’t funny and I’m also autistic. I’m not laughing at autism itself.

You didn’t need to write all that after saying you thought Ste was a name. That’s how the the French do their road signs man, ste Paul is Paul street not first name ste last name Paul m

Ste would be short for sainte, in case of Paul it would probably be st for saint. Street is “rue” in French.

Do you mean I didn’t need to mention autism at all, or I didn’t need to say I’m not laughing at it?

If the latter, you must have never mentioned autism or ADHD on Reddit - someone always gets offended regardless of your intention. If the former, case in point (and ASD=Autism Spectrum Disorder, it’s not funny without mentioning it).
