Don't understand the joke? Most autistic people I know and me included are not that into math to that degree. Maybe someone with ADHD and autism may hyper fixate on it, but still it's not really something they would do usually?

People thinking autism is like a superpower or something don't really understand the disability.

I think it more about detail oriented thinking rather than the big picture.

The meme builds on a cliché about autistic people.

I'm not autistic, just ADHD but I do honestly feel like double checking that figure here

edit: i'd estimate 62.1% full

and assuming that glass is perfectly radially symmetric (idk if that is the correct term or not) you would not ever need to do that much math

if you had the actual glass you could probably do a much more accurate measurement just with a graduated cylinder
