Or you can use Claude to make her an interactive Mother's Day card and then host it on a live URL so she can send it to her friends and brag

Re: Remind HN: Today is Mother's Day, call your moms
#172When my mom remarried, her new husband started to manipulate her and isolate her from other relatives, trying to turn everyone against each other. The last time I met her, I was basically talking to two copies of him. I've already dealt with the fact that I will not get my mom back.
That sounds like something you fight harder on instead of being defeatist.

#173This is the first year when I can’t do that. Please go do it on my behalf, while it’s possible.
I lost mine 6 years ago. I regret not spending more time with her. I wasted time on the computer instead to get "work" done. Don't be like me.
I don't know about this advice. However much time you spend with your loved ones isn't ever going to be enough. There will always be regret and "I wish I had more".

#174Earlier quoted context omitted.
Fourth Sunday in Lent or something, very easy to forget it!
Yes, it pre-dates the gift card (and gift) industry. I seem to recall being told it was to allow servants to go home to see their mothers. See how vaguely I framed that.
Nothing to do with mothers, wasn't it something to do with visiting your "mother church", the church where you were baptised?
