Fantastic! I hope you just solved my issues!

No, I hadn’t. I appreciate the link! My mom is completely non technical (can barely use an iPad), but this could be a great thing to build on.

I’m working on https://getvedahome.com

My mother had a stroke a little over a month ago and I don’t live close by. I went in search of a wellness product that would let me know how she’s doing without her feeling I’m prying too much. I didn’t find one, so now I’m trying to build it. I’m also working on moving closer.

I did my PhD work in the late 90s/early 2000s on a C++ parser. In my PhD thesis, I give credit to Roskind for the "lex hack" and cite his 1989 grammar. We reference this posting, basically: https://compilers.iecc.com/comparch/article/90-06-049 Very cool to see this history preserved.
