True story. I sub contracted with another agency for a new startup and we wanted to have a pre-release for a small audience and the app was outright rejected by Apple for this same reason. My final milestone for said agency was tied to releasing the app to the store… still salty (and wiser) about that.

My sister was part of an immunotherapy trial years back. She was given weeks to live; the trial gave us years. Tailored medicine is truly a marvel.

I have not built anything novel — just utilizing community projects have been a wonderful improvement at home: 1. Ratgdo for the garage door 2. Esphome EcoNet for my water heater 3. Off the shelf Sonoff switches for some holiday lighting.

All of this is tied with a bow via Home Assistant.

I live in South Carolina and was nodding in agreement reading your reply.

Good for you. Abusing anchor (or navigation) is also a flagrant disregard for impaired users (those that need accessibility tooling).

Same boat here. When my 2nd child was around 5 was diagnosed with SPD (desires heavy input, sometimes auditory stimming) and autism. This is a journey and would recommend doing some reading. I can't recommend "The Power of Neurodiversity" by Armstrong enough to understand how every individual's mind works.

Each area (picky eating, social transitions) requires patience for incremental improvements. Also note that many of our social norms (at least in the USA) are not exactly fair to those neurodiverse individuals. Sometimes, self-awareness (when the child is older) will help as well.

Good luck and don't forget to love your child for who they are.

Have you tried Blendle? It semi solves this problem with a “pay per article” model, usually around $.50 each.

I “installed” drop.com as a PWA on my iPhone. It gets full screen real estate and a launcher icon.

I have the exact same sentiment when it comes to the Baratza line of products. I have the Preciso, which is similar to the Encore. I have rebuilt parts of it twice and you could build a unit from parts if so desired. In fact, they should consider offering DIY editions ala Frame.work for enthusiasts.

I am on your same wavelength. Props to you for pursuing this mentality. I believe you would enjoy the book “The Innovation Delusion” by Vinsel and Russell

Notes on the Synthesis of Form provided intriguing insight into the theory and cultural impacts of design. As others have mentioned, he provided examples using architecture and biology. Quite fascinating albeit dry at times. Highly recommended. Thanks to the others for other reading suggestions.

I use Pop_OS on my Framework and loved 1.5x scaling except for screen tearing I get (YouTube for example). I reverted to 1x and increased icon and font sizes to semi compensate.

Entertaining read. I enjoyed the dialogue-like banter. Nice write up!
