Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Hei wāhanga o tana pono ki te rerekētanga me te whakauru, kua whakarewahia e Microsoft he kaupapa kimi kaimahi mō te hunga autism. Ka tīmata te kaupapa whakamātautau mā te kimi i ngā tāngata tekau e mate ana i te autism, i te mate Asperger rānei, hei noho ki ngā tari o Redmond i Washington. Mēnā ka angitu, ka taea te whakawhānui i te kaupapa ki ētahi atu wāhi wātea puta noa i te ao. Ka whakawhiwhia te kaupapa whakamātautau ki te 10 nga tangata autism e noho ana i nga tari o Redmond o Microsoft i Washington (i whakaahuatia). Kei te whakahaere a Microsoft i te kaupapa me te tautoko mai i nga tohunga o Specialisterne. I whakapuakina ngā mahere e Mary Ellen Smith, te tumuaki tuarua o te kaporeihana mō ngā mahi o te ao.

'Kua roa matou e whakapau kaha ana ki te whakahohe i te hunga hauā kia angitu [a] i tenei wiki i panuitia e matou tetahi atu mahi whakaongaonga, he kaupapa whakamātautau hou me Specialisterne, e arotahi ana ki te utu i nga taangata autism mo nga mahi wa-katoa, i Redmond. 'He tīmatanga noa iho, engari e harikoa ana mātou ki te haere, ā, e mōhio ana mātou he nui ngā mea ka akona e mātou i te ara.' Ko te autism he mate neurological e pā ana ki te āhua o te whakawhitiwhiti kōrero a te tangata, me tōna pānga ki ētahi atu tāngata. Ka pā hoki ki te āhua o tō rātou whakaaro ki te ao e karapoti ana i a rātou. Ko te nuinga o te wā, he uaua ki te whakawhitiwhiti kōrero, ki te titiro ki ngā kanohi o te tangata, ā, ka raru pea i ngā haruru nui, i ngā rama mārama rānei. Ka taea hoki e rātau te aro ki te pa, ki te reka, ki te kakara me te tae. Ko te nuinga o ngā tāngata autistic e pai ana ki te raupapa me te taea te matapae. Ko te mate autism he āhuatanga ā-rōpū, ko te tikanga ahakoa he raruraru ōrite ō ngā tāngata autism katoa, he rerekē te pānga o tō rātou mate ki a rātou. Ko ētahi tāngata...
