Myth: You are lazy.

Truth: It's highly probable you are neurodivergent.

While, accurate numbers are not available, I have seen people estimating that 20% of people working in FAANG are neurodivergent. If coding comes naturally to you but the laundry is your mortal enemy, it's worth learning about ADHD/ASD and other common disorders. Being a coder can be a sign, the immediate feedback helps a bunch of us, or as Russel Barkely says "when you solve a problem on a paper, NOTHING HAPPENS".

Edit: Rephrase.

Are you sure you don’t have autism? You sure sound like you do, maybe even some asshole mixed in there too
