    No one with much of a CS education can in my experience. I'm not sure if this is because of the nature of CS, or because most CS majors are fucking assholes.

    I was trying to line up something about fucking your asshole because you're a tight cunt, but I'm sure I lost track of the execution.

    You wouldn't know that though because you've demonstrably never picked up a book nor educated yourself on the matter. Let me guess, overweight housewife?

    Cochlear implants are amazing, to be sure. For a select few individuals, they can work wonders and change their lives for the better. But they're not a magic bullet that will cure deafness. In fact, the majority of the deaf community shun those things, as we view it as the "hearing" attempt to fix something that is in no need of being fixed. We view deafness as something that's normal, and we have a language that gives us our culture, shared experiences and common backgrounds. Cochlear implants is an affront to all of that.

    One of the things that pisses me off to no end is when parents put cochlear implants into BABIES. That's not fair to the child, as he/she has no say in what happens to them and it simply cannot be undone. Perhaps if the child was somewhat older and capable of sentient thought - sure, let them make that decision for themselves, as they will be the ones to live with that thing for the rest of their lives. Additionally, they'll be viewed as outcasts by both communities - not really accepted by the hearing community because of that device protruding out of their skull, and not really accepted by the deaf community for the same reason, but also for the "attempted fix."

    Let's try it the other way. Suppose that a deaf couple have a hearing child, and they're upset and torn and want their child to be like them. What would be YOUR thoughts, if you found out this couple had the doctor perform a surgery that made the baby lose their hearing? That's how we deaf feel about cochlear implants.
    doesn't sound like he wants one of those

    Nope. The deaf community pretty much hates the idea that they're "disabled", so they treat anyone who tries to "Fix" their deafness like a pariah.

    It's actually kinda interesting, because you'll see people positively shunned throughout the deaf community whenever they marry a Hearing person. There's a lot of discrimination against people who became deaf later in life, too, since they weren't born deaf. Very interesting stuff.

    well didn't you read his posts. clearly hearing is an unimportant sense so he can easily do whatever his job is without it

    I wonder if the deaf and the blind often get into gang fights to determine who's 'disability' gives them better lives

    I would not know. I do not know the blind community. That would be pretty awesome, though. Who do you think would win?

    frequent excuses: "no one told me" and "I didn't look at my calendar" respectively

    One bright day in the middle of the night,
    Two dead boys got up to fight.
