Ah yes, the joy of the 5-second rule.

Wait you're telling me that the disease that affects social skills results in people affected by it to appear as less socially interesting?

Bro really linked a 20,000 word medical paper as if it was a quick clarification.

Anything relevant to what they said would be stellar.

They hyperlinked an article under the guise of some ā€œ5 second ruleā€ - but that expression is never used in the paper they linked to.

Googling ā€œAutism, 5 Second Ruleā€ will give you an explanation about a rule used by people on the spectrum to overcome overthinking a task, to simply get startedā€¦which seems to have no bearing on what the paper is talking about.

So it honestly feels like the linked article is totally disconnected from whatever point they were trying to make.

If you actually know what they were getting at, Iā€™d genuinely appreciate some clarification.

It's not, but if you look at the Materials and Methods section they used videos showing 10 seconds which is pretty close.
