[QUOTE="Deleted member 52, post: 36144"] It depends on your own brain chemistry. A lot of great work was done by hermits and schizos historically. A lot of scientists had pretty groundbreaking work but took a long time to publish it. It depends on your motivation and upbringing. The problem is that, these days, you can’t really be a scientific hermit like that anymore, 90% of work is done in teams and we have gotten so far you need to be hyper specialized to have a real impact. Anyway, regardless, for plenty of other things, I think the internet can provide plenty of validation, and you can still be NEET. Eg, posting music online, or publishing a game. The internet makes collaboration with others while being a recluse a lot easier, even on some sort of professional team working on programming for example.
