I'm in Decatur too! I grew up in the suburbs, and after having lived in the city, there's no way in hell I'm moving outside the perimeter. Unless, it's to another state.

I work remotely to avoid any and all traffic.

I'm happy to see larger tech companies planting some roots here.

I think it could be useful to add voice commands for changing colors, etc.

I love the idea of giving the paralyzed a way to create art.

Nice work.

This goes against Daniel Pink's analysis, in his book Drive, of why people contribute to open source software.

They contribute to be a part of something, for the actual process, to up their skills, etc.

Though, this is perhaps the very reason open source issues go unfixed. I'm curious to see if this works.

We always just used Profitwell for free.

Any major differentiators from https://offeo.com?

You left out everything that makes the story human and resonate with the reader.

Any plans to include children with disabilities? This seems like the perfect service for parents of children with Autism.

My wife is a special education teacher, and she is like an Autism whisperer. She is amazing. It's incredible to see her understand and communicate with nonverbal children. What often appears to be a temper tantrum to most, can actually be a communication effort.

It is a lot of fun to watch her work her magic.

Heads up. Apple has an animation application called Motion.

Sorry for being a hardass, but the original author sounds like me 11 years ago. I thought life happened to me, and I had no control over it. I've since changed my way of thinking, and just this week my bootstrapped company reached 10 million in ARR.

Please see "not 100% accurate." I get that uncontrolled circumstances are inevitable, but hearing others bitch and complain about how good others have it while riding their pity pony drives me mad.

The original author (clearly not living in slums) didn't have to get married, have two kids, and take out a mortgage on a home. Also, being a mediocre developer is in his control too.

Get your big boy panties on, change your mindset, and make change in your life, not excuses.

What's the saying? "Where you are in life is a result of choices you made in the past."

Something like that. While not 100% accurate, I've found it to be mostly true with people in my life.
