Don't @ me

The invention of the Sign Language Glove is some sort of periodic dudebro phenomenon that occurs spontaneously every year or two, like cicada broods or Old Faithful. Inventors and tech writers are helpless, like moths slamming their empty little heads into lightbulbs, as they breathlessly explain that now, at long last, Deaf people will finally be able to communicate with hearing people without resorting to interpreters, gestures, ASL classes, phones, or pen & paper.

All we'll need is this expensive and unwieldy device that can provide slow, limited, inaccurate one-way conversion of signs to text or speech- because the overriding problem for Deaf people trying to communicate with hearing people is DEFINITELY that the hearing people can't understand us, not the other way around.
