I too have a child with Ushers (1F). We told him at age 10, though obviously it didn't really register until some years later. Please feel free to reach out to me.

I worked on that project from the Palm side. Visited Olathe a couple times too. That was one of the more fun integrations.

I've used soundiiz.com for importing likes & playlists (though from different source and target services). Works well enough.

not the first at all, but still a good step forward -- see the commercially available Argus II -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argus_retinal_prosthesis
* though it might be the first to work for those with optic nerve damage, or with this pathway

I have an (adult) child with Usher Syndrome, and have lots of connections and resources that I'd be happy to share. There is a a decent amount of research going on right now. If you like, feel free to reach me at my username at gmail.

I worked there until very close to the end, and the collapse of GO/Eo provided me with a priceless instant network of friends at dozens of companies around the SF Bay Area.
I met my spouse and some of my best friends through GO/Eo, and to this day still greatly value the connections made there for my personal and professional networks. Silver linings.

I'm also an MCC alum - I worked in the Software Technology Program. My code there had a surprisingly long life - transitioning to a spin out startup and then other companies. (See gIBIS https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compendium_(software)#Histor... ). I too learned Lisp (and Emacs!) there - two tools that have stuck with me ever since. Many of us also started to learn Japanese there.

I literally laughed out loud at this. Thanks for the humor.

You are correct - that's the main reason I wrote the 1pass wrapper mentioned above. It mirrors the data locally (in a gpg-encrypeted cache).

I use 1Password via the CLI (https://support.1password.com/command-line/) on Linux (well -- FreeBSD) Desktop all the time. I wrote a wrapper for the CLI (https://github.com/dcreemer/1pass) to make it a bit more ergonomic to use with things like FZF.
I used to use "pass" like others here, but did not like the Android experience.
*edited to add: and we use the 1Password team account at my day job -- and are satisfied customers. I'm sure other products work well too -- just my one data point.
