Launch HN: Trexo Robotics (YC W19) – Robotic Legs for Kids with Cerebral Palsy 106 by manmeet | 14 comments on Hacker News. Hi HN community!

Video: https://youtu.be/3LW4LJIpa2o We are both Mechatronics undergrads from the University of Waterloo. Rahul later completed a Master's in Robotics at the University of Toronto and I've done my MBA at Rotman. We started this a few years ago when I (Manmeet) found out that my nephew, Praneit, has Cerebral Palsy, and that he would not be able to walk. Not walking can lead to contractures, hip subluxation, and many physiological and psychological issues for kids. We wanted to change that. We decided to use our robotics background, along with help from friends and the top rehabilitation researche

New top story on Hacker News: Ask HN: How to deal with a terrible senior colleague who acts like he's boss?

Ask HN: How to deal with a terrible senior colleague who acts like he's boss? 2 by happppy | 0 comments on Hacker News. I have a senior colleague who thinks he's my manager and talks in a way like he knows everything(in reality he doesn't and is transferred to our team because his previous team laid him off). He can't understand simple logic and I have to explain him simple logic and then he acts like I don't know anything. I can't complain to my manager as he's a friend of my manager and I am junior and new in this company!
