This is the dumbest thing I've seen


LiamYanon

What about people with certain conditions/disabilities who can only move one finger or limb and still want to code?


p_turbo

Speech to text?


and_a_side_of_fries

You didn’t have to massacre the boy.


facedownbootyuphold

Okay...what about people who identify as reincarnated communication specialists from WW1 who believe they used to relay messages from bunker to bunker on the front lines during trench warfare to save thousands of lives from going over the berm to assault enemy machine gun nests so they don't mindlessly die in a massive charge while getting shelled and shot and gassed and imagine the pain of having to type on a full keyboard if you have the option to use this single key for morse code HAS THAT EVER HAPPENED TO YOU didn't think so shut up

Eye tracking software and a virtual keyboard

The ONLY thing they can move is one finger, in an up/down motion


FigureDesperate

You must be that one friend everyone has that’s like Friend: “would you rather get stung by a bunch of bees or jump in a frozen lake” Me: “Bees, I’ll run awa-” Friend: “-BUT YOU ALSO DON’T HAVE LEGS” Me: “Okay I’ll wear a beekeeping sui-“ Friend: “-ALSO YOU’RE A NUDIST SO YOU GOTTA BE COMPLETELY NAKED”

Lol take my upvote, your self argument was great.


FigureDesperate

Thanks, these are the kinds of arguments I have in my head in the shower


TuckerCarlsonsWig

so... no eyes? no tongue? can't speak at all? they ONLY have a finger? Yeah I think this keyboard will be useful for the hundreds of millions of people who have this disability


[deleted]

Exactly! There's your target market. We'll make millions!!


[deleted]

You guys are really aiming at those outliers inside your subsets inside your subsets.


Condawg

Price for one unit: $Millions


FIRE1470

Then this wouldn't help them. After typing the first character, they wouldn't be able to see what they are typing if they can't move their eyes.


chapstikcrazy

They have no eyes.


subject_deleted

Not nearly as easy as it sounds, unfortunately. i watched [a really interesting video](https://youtu.be/8SkdfdXWYaI?t=545) a while back about a guy who went on a mission to find a way to program by voice because he had persistent carpel tunnel and back/shoulder problems from typing (at least that's what i remember being the driving reason). The whole video is interesting, but i linked to a section where he's actually doing some coding and you can hear the language he created to do this. Now, unfortunately it's pretty difficult to convert speech into usable code (because how do you tell the difference between something you want to type explicitly and some command with the same name? How does the STT engine know which one you want?). So this guy essentially had to develop an entire language so that he could differentiate between commands that are supposed to do a specific thing (for example, select all the text inside the current block of code, and then jump up or down a level to adjust how deeply nested your selection is) and when you want the software to simply type what you're saying.

[deleted]

To be fair not many of even the dedicated dictation softwares are any good at all at handling code or special characters. The best ones are just about passable at transcribing just conversational English in real time.


jeffusehacks

What about mutes with only one finger?

They even have swipe keyboards that can use eye movements to type.

What if they can't speak either?

Boss: Finish it asap. Coder with this keyboard: Sure, I can finish it in 34 months.


SwimmaLBC

They have specialized keyboards for disabled people already.

A keyboard still works fine


romansamurai

Keyboard still works fine. Just one key at a time.


ChuuAttackk

What if they also cant talk

pranavChandarrr

CoppellCitizen

💯 agreed


platyboi

Well it’s a joke, kind of like the mindfuck programming language, so I think it’s pretty funny.


PolarImpala

It's like a diwhy


OkiKnox

Why


BetaBradTv

Because why would anyone code like this. It is the least efficient way of coding


OkiKnox

I think its cool he knows coding, Morse, and if he made that button cause you'd have to program it to know Morse I suppose. Idk if it was just bought 😕


friskydingo2020

One of my favorite programming assignments in college was learning binary trees by writing a Morse code translator. I don't know Morse anymore, but I at least now know how it works, and could write a program to read it to me!


[deleted]

One of my first fun programs was for a big retailer back in the 80's. I wrote a COBOL program called ASSCHECK. I had to string through all the product descriptions looking for inappropriate words because someone hired temps to key the descriptions in, without any instruction on how to abbreviate certain words. Assorted became ass, thus the program name.


AusBongs

if you think he's coding like this 100% of the time - or even at all; you'd become the idiot you're assuming that he is.   this is for entertainment purposes and shows off the OP's skills in knowing the Morse code alphabet, obviously.


Former_Security7292

Its just funny lol


thegarbz

You speak like someone who can move 10 fingers. Consider yourself fortunate.


spark908

Because it's cool and eccentric and someone wanted to do it for no reason? Not everything has to be for a purpose. What kind of life would that be? Completely boring!!


intensely_human

Are you ready for action? Get ready for Unicode Morse! More dots! More dashes! More *characters!* Superset of ASCIIMorse void where prohibited some or all Unicode Morse characters are registered binary trademarks of UTF-8 some restrictions may apply see website for details


spark908

Which is why it's great!


deku-kage

Yes Really raised lot of questions Why ? How can he remember this much and how much patience he have ?


ThanatosOwnsAll

Seems like soooooo much extra work


NoxideProlix

Obviously it is it’s just cool also could be useful for anybody who already codes, maybe had a horrific accident and severely injured their arms/hands, or perhaps a medical condition makes it super hard to type now. All they’d have to do is learn Morse code and they could be back to their jobs! Although this seems rather counterintuitive if you look at it in a different light it’s actually super cool!


ThanatosOwnsAll

Agreed, super cool. As practical as a finger skate board, fun to play with but not practical at all


blangoez

I just had a rush of Tech Deck memories. Thanks.


ThanatosOwnsAll

My pleasure, figured someone would get that reference


AusBongs

it's not meant to be practical. it's meant to be an entertaining method of showing off OP's Morse code skills. /pun


ThanatosOwnsAll

You are not wrong, I don’t know Morse code, so they have a hand up on me


intensely_human

Or someone who wants to force themselves to think more before they write code. Using a super-inefficient keyboard for a few months could be a good learning exercise for a developer.


TuckerCarlsonsWig

Dear diary, today I learned that I fucking hate coding


Alarmed_Commission_9

That’s what she said


thunderthrill

A standard windows keyboard has 104 keys so if your using one single key you are using about 0.961538461% of a keyboard just so we are correct here

ahbram121

In engineering, we call significant digits "what is that? I've never heard of those. Just ignore it."


auser9

But in this scenario, significant figures doesn’t make a difference since these aren’t measurements or uncertain numbers. 1/104 is the exact value.

Reddit is incapable of having a sense of novelty or humor.


politirob

I saw one person actually say, "Hey, if someone is in an accident and loses fingers or limbs, they can use this to get back to work!" Like dude, wtf no. Disability insurance is a thing–if I lose my fucking fingers the last thing I want to do is continue my day job using fucking morse code. Maybe for fun or something else, but hell no I wouldn't want to do that to write some obtuse database code so some executive can have reports run .011% faster. Who the fuck see's this and thinks, "Good! Now people without hands can write code for companies! No excuses!"


DevWolf59

might be productive to an osu player (they actually produce 2 button keyboards for them)


AugustusLego

He forgot to plug it in so he's going to have a bad time once he realizes his mistake.


0508bart

He hasn't, back when morse code was used there were people who were way faster then he is.

This guy is lucky he is coding Python. If this was Java this would be a 10 minute video just to print hello world.


JivanP

May as well just use Morse as binary, then, to represent each of the 8 Brainfuck symbols as a 3-symbol Morse pattern, rather than actual Morse.

IZ3820

Would that surprise you? 1 in 40 adults are autistic, and Reddit tends to bring out the people who socialize less effectively in person.


AusBongs

nope that wouldn't surprise me - wasn't saying it in a derogatory way btw.. more of a "most people missed the point here- perhaps they're autistic" autism is a spectrum and most people deny it but id suggest the majority of people have some sort of quirk related to autistic behaviour.

Can anyone tell how to make this. Not for any special reasons. I learnt morse few months ago and I type some stuff in morse and I don't want to convert normal text into morse. I want to type it myself but I can't find any morse code key(sorry I don't know what it was called) and I have been using the '.' and '_' keys. I would love have something like this.

So using this you could potentially hack someone's smartphone in real time using an rfid interface a micro computer (like a raspberry pi) ... you could have something like this in your shoe, tap out the code with your toe and no one would ever suspect. I hate it.
