Today is the day I accept my silence.
I used to think that if I worked hard enough and shared my story honestly, the world would listen. I am a software dev who was born with a hardware error. After 19 surgeries, I thought my 20th would be my upgrade to stereo sound.
After seeing 800,000 people pass by my project like I’m a ghost, I finally understand. I am meant to be incomplete. I’m giving up on the Angel of Sound project. I’m giving up on the surgery. I will just be the guy with the asymmetric face and the mono hearing. To those who actually tried to help, you made me feel human for a second. Thank you. Goodbye.

this feels rushed rather than thought through Curious how this plays out.
To be fair, the direction makes sense but the details are messy and that’s why this won’t land the same for everyone That part stands out.
At this point, the framing does a lot of heavy lifting here This probably isn’t the last word on it.
this feels more about execution than intent and that’s where the disagreement starts Let’s see what happens next.

Bluntly speaking, the direction makes sense but the details are messy
the signal is clear, the strategy less so and that’s where people will push back That’s the key detail here. This could age very differently in a week. Could be wrong, but that’s how it comes across.

this solves one problem while creating another which turns this into more of a debate
From where I sit, the logic is there, but the execution is uneven and that’s why opinions are all over the place That part stands out.
