We've been working on making an alternative with our knowledge of professional audio technology, which has long outpaced the medical hearing aid realm. We want to both share the journey, and learn about your experiences both with the technology and hearing itself.

Commits have stable ...

Motivation: While our democracy can be shaped by the people as they wish on paper, the population seems to be largely dissatisfied with political actions: - The handling of many crises appears to be inadequate - Urgent problems seem to be postponed - Democratic participation seems tedious and ineffective Dissatisfaction mixed with these perceptions can lead to the loss of ...
