I don't have CAD, 3D making, or firmware skills, but am a reasonably skilled Ruby coder, and these are items I would personally use and could give immediate design feedback on. I would love to collaborate with someone today to get a prototype. 4/4

2. can hack my Bose QC Ultra 2 HP firmware, or have the hardware/electronics components and/or HW hacking skills needed to create a physical prototype, to enhance echolocation by "stretching" the inter-ear timing offset, generating ultrasonic or other pings & transforming to audible range, etc 3/4

1. have access to a 3D printer, laser etcher, or similar on site and are willing to help CADing & printing some 8-dot-cell Marburg style braille frames or miniature prototypes, or 2/4

First workshop Friday 3–5pm. Can probably accommodate 2 more student-assistant pairs. Sign-up required for students; can sign-up on the spot, contingent on whether I can accommodate more people. Sign-up requested but not required for observers (i.e. tagging along with us). Updated photos here.

No workshop today. Too worn and have a volunteer shift at 9. Tomorrow.

My tent is the starting point for my workshops. Conlang flag and white canes should be obvious if you're sighted. It's just past an opening in the eastern fence around the two large trees behind The Robot Arms, parallel to vertical light poles. It's on the map: map.emfcamp.org#18.5/52.0411...

That's not what I said. I said that people pay for skills, not that a naming language was of a particular skill level or difficulty. Things that are easy for one person aren't for others. I'm not interested in convincing you of anything. This isn't an argument. You asked a question, I answered it.

Sai @s.ai · 11/07/2026

2. Your question has a false premise. It's easy for someone with several years of linguistics and conlanging skills. That's not the same as easy for the client. A skilled carpenter could make a table in an hour that'd take me a month. Clients pay for skills. It's not burger flipping. 3/3

1.B. I know for certain that there are many more that didn't get posted through us but go by our pricing. E.g. www.reddit.com/r/conlangs/s... (that search isn't complete) is all by LCS pricing. www.reddit.com/r/conlangs/w... 2/3

1. Hard to say. A. Of >80 requests submitted through the LCS jobs page since October 2018, by a crude text search alone (they're not classified by category), about 8 explicitly wanted naming languages (1 wanted 2). I'd guess the real % is higher, but I'm running LCC12 and won't look more now. 1/3

And yet they in fact do. Frequently. In any case, we care more strongly about protecting our members from exploitative working conditions and race to the bottom situations than about giving professional services to people who cannot afford them. Maybe your values are set differently. 🤷

Sorry, but Conor is correct on this one. It's one of the largest time costs, again especially at the low end.

Sai @s.ai · 08/07/2026

It does. And the overhead percentage for small jobs is, nearly always, much higher than it is for large ones.

Sai @s.ai · 08/07/2026

AFAIK this is correct
