As a blind person I'm glad I have no need for your course since I already know how to program. Linux accessibility is a giant pain for most blind people. While the Mac is accessible your looking at a $1000 entry price compared to $500 for a Windows laptop with a free screen reader. Never assume you know best, people like me have good reasons for using Windows.
- andrewfromx 10y ago"Never assume you know best" well I'm sorry but I'm not trying to make a school that caters to every single person's personal issues. I'm trying to create a leading silicon valley / silicon beach code school where the best of the best go. Being blind has lots of limitations I'm afraid. I would tell my own son this if he was blind too. And I do know the best about _this_ issue. I've taught 100's of people coding and trying to do it on a Mac is much more efficient. I have not had a single blind student yet.
- jareds 10y agoPlease list the limitations you know so much about? Your sample size is far to small to make any generalizations about what blind people can and can not do just because you have not taught any blind students. Also read up on WSL, it's pretty good.
