#12As a vibe coder and a product guy trying to make the world a better place with tech, this is just the most inspiring stuff. Well done on doing this for you and your family and soon so many other families. This is what AI is for. Best thing I’ve read all year!!

#13This is great! Never knew this AAC is a thing.
I happen to make an interactive pen platform (like TipToi but with an editor that allows one to design and publish their own books with logic, scripting, genai support), much like the author explained at the end; and the AAC is actually a perfect use case. You get everything the author described, but screen free!

#14A traditional AAC was way too abstract. My son has no clue that a red octagon means stop. He has no idea what stop even means in that context. When I travel, I really like looking at the public graphics for no parking, no entry, etc. Some places are basically just text, but others really have great little illustrations that communicate the message without needing words. For example – I think it was in France or Spain…
It often correlates with a publics literary rate. Which is why really international communication apps have photos for groupchats and speech samples.

This is weirdly misogynistic.

This is likely the sign you are thinking of: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_7010#/media/File:ISO_7010_...

Yep exactly. I was trying to find it on Google but couldn’t come up with anything.

What is “hatred of women” about this?
Is it incorrect to say that more women are into astrology than men?
Is it then hatred to say that my wife is going to say something is due to astrology, and I will nod and say “sure dear” lovingly but know that it has absolutely nothing to do with astrology?
Likewise, women are probably more into supplements and holistic medicine than men, and there’s nothing “hatred of women” to observe that.
