Very interesting. We might make real progress as a species if we can leverage this more generally as a society.

Also, I expect the "machines" to disrupt the film industry in a very similar way.

Excellent! I have also found that if I'm not going to be working on that project anyway, I might as well embrace it, learn something new, learn how to focus again. That's better long-term than pretending I'm working on it.

I was hoping I'd see some discussion about this here. Does anyone think this is a good idea? If so, do we have a real shot at actually making this happen?

Thank you so much for sharing something so personal. I've had deaf friends in my life from time to time over the last 40 years and I thought I understood (as much as any hearing person can). I was wrong. There is so much more that I hadn't even considered.

I use vim and Textmate every day. I like vim for it's speed, but I do use Textmate a lot for it's project mode and for a lot of markdown and xhtml - just out of habit really.

I just hit win -> r -> 'vim' when I'm using Windows.

I write shell scripts to do just about everything. Good point about teaching these skills to non-programmers.
