My daughter like a genius with no common sense.

I went out earlier, doing some electronics shopping and getting ideas for my man cave.
Left my 2 daughter's at hone, my wife went to work.

I got home chilled decided to fry up some fish for a snack. I go in my kitchen, put the pan on the stove and right next to the stove is fluorescent orange box painted on my counter with the words caution.

I was furious, fucking pissed 15k marble countertop. I called my kids down I am like who did this. The older cops to it. I said why in the fuck would you paint a square on my counter top. She tells me that is where her new invention "Cookin Buddy" has to sit. I am like what the fuck is a cooking buddy, she said wait daddy I will show you.

She goe upstairs come down with this metal contraption, a plc, transformer, and whole bunch of other shit nailed to a board.

So what the cooking buddy does is sit next to the stove, it has a probe which you stick in whatever you are heating up, water, milk, oil.
It has a little arm controlled by 3 actuators, you put a cup with pasta, vegetables, lets say grits becaue she lives grits. Grits go in the cup, when the temperature of the water reaches whatever poin you set it picks up the cup and dumps it in the boiling water. Its also has bluetooth so she can control it from her laptop.

So I asked what the hell is the orange box for on my coutertop. Well that's the exact spot cookin buddy has to sit, it's a robot, it dont know where the pot is.

So I said you know nobody is gonna want a box on they're counter, and I asked who is too lazy to wait for the water to boil, to add whatever.

Well daddy, now I can come home, put the pan of water on, I can put the grits in the cup. I can turn cookin buddy on and go upstairs and do other things, and wa-la grits are done.

So I asked her has she tried it yet, she said no. I said I guarantee it's going to be the worst grits you will ever eat. She said no it's not, I said I GURANTEE the worst.

I said it's going to be one big ass clump, who is going to stir the grits ?

She just looked at me, and said I didnt think about that.

Know, I love my daughter and I will fully support her in her endeavors. I always encourage them to think outside the box, and the kid truly is board line genius. Book sense dont equate to common sense.

I didnt take the wind out of her sails, so she said she is going to work on the details.


Ok, agreed she didn’t quite think it all the way through but I think she's on to something.

Patent the idea now!!. She already have working protype, do not let other steal it, GO!!!
 
Thats on my to do list, as soon as she get her own place, shit she can fuck up her shit all she want.
Nah, don't be like that, let ya daughter make them battle bots, YOLO AKA "YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE".

Listen dad to dad?

You are doing a WONDERFUL job.


Thanks bro !!!
People say it's no bad kids, just bad parents.
I am starting to believe it, one is a nurse, other at the IRS, major genius at home. and the youngest, well if she could ever focus on thing she could do whatever she wants. She is the one with the most common sense, she wants to be vernarian.

The major genius wants to build robotic prosthesis for amputees.

Nah, that has been done, let her creativity go wild. She is onto something,


Who’s It For?​


  • Elderly folks or people with limited mobility who still love cooking
  • College students who forget things on the stove
  • Kitchen tinkerers who like gadgets
  • Parents who want to “assist” cooking while doing other things



Yes — it’s a genuinely strong and timely idea with multiple compelling angles. Here's a breakdown of why it's good, and what could make it even better:

✅ Why It’s a Good Idea

ReasonExplanation
Solves a Real ProblemHelps people who multitask, have limited mobility, or forget items on the stove.
Smart Kitchen TrendFits into the growing smart home/kitchen automation movement. Think: Instant Pot meets robotic arm.
Unique FunctionalityNot just a timer or sensor — it acts when the conditions are right (adds food automatically).
Low Barrier to EntryCould be developed as a modular gadget, not a full appliance. Potential for crowdfunding or DIY market.
Assistive Tech ValueGreat for elderly or disabled individuals who need a little extra help cooking.
Niche FriendlyYou could market this for grits lovers, pasta makers, or people who meal prep a lot — build strong communities around specific uses.

Let her do something fun that she can use, her creativity will only get better to expand her mind to find something else she wants to build that could change people's lives who would see her product as a benefit to them.

I'm talking about the battle bots. Which is what you quote me on.

Yet, you're talking about something different.

You bring up a good point, what if you leave the shit on the stove?
So it will alert y when the water boils from the temp sensor, her program has a timer to tell you when it's done. What happens when you fall asleep and do t hear that shit and the house burn down ?

On a side note, what i really think that she did is cool.
We are going to drive down the ciast rom NJ to FL, from there to Mexico.
She built a private portal for her and her sister, when they find something on tik tok that they want to visit they share it to the portal.
The portal indexes and sorts everything. Poster, date, city, state, any hyperlinks, and they can leave comments to each other.

I work in the automation field.
I consult businesses that want to automate,
There have to be a valve on the gas line with a sensor to be able toclose the gas off when the food is done or break the circuit if it's electrical.
The insurance is out of control because it's a fallible product that could potentially cost lives.
The need, how many people NEED this ?
Trust me, I applaud her enthusiasm, she is an awesome young lady and her future is Hella bright. I would hire her now at my company for 40+ a year, she will probably intern next year.
Imma let her do what, she do, I wish I could get her out of this mumble rap syndrome tho
 
Thanks bro !!!

Let me know where I can invest in her bro.

Salute.

sidebar... you better not yell to much when she experimenting. She gonna be the first one behind that podium accepting her Nobel Prize in Engineering telling a DIFFERENT version.. Cause HER story is NOT gonna be how you were trying to guide her with tough love.

She gonna be telling the world how her father used to yell at her and succeeded in spite of your angry black ass.

:lol:

When I was a kid we had those woven bamboo paper plate holders in my house, I tore like 3 of them to make a fish trap after we moved out the jets. My mom went off, she was an observant person, if anything is moved she would notice it. She could feel a breath of air missing in the atmosphere.

I took that and many other ass whipping about tearing her shit up. Heard many lectures about how hard she work to provide.

My kids dont have that issue, they really got fuck up to catch a L, in the same respect, they aint the same bad ass child I am.

Good BGOL thread tho. "If your children were raised in the same financial position and same environment would you're kids be successful today?"

My kids think my mom the meanest person on earth when they used to go to her house.

They lived her when on bdays and holidays and whenever she would take them out and do a whole bunch of shit they cant do at home. Let they assess have to gor a sleep over when my mom cut all thr breakers off in the house and had this fake battery powered candle in the bathroom. Man they couldn't stand being there.
 
"who gonna stir the grits"?
:lol::lol::lol:


That comes later lol.
I ordered a proximity sensor today, it will let the arm know when it is close enough to the pot. In her code, she will have to write a line if the sensor is not on the arm wont dump.
No more orange squares.

im sorry......i dont want a robot makin my grits.......lol

I dont either lol, but I appreciate her vision. She be gassed on robotics for about 4 years now and is always got an idea for a new contraption. I am just trying to encourage and support her.
 
Sometimes we do become lazy, If we don't feel like making grits, I'm gonna call that robot to do it..
 
  • Haha
Reactions: DJ
Aight you eat that big ass clump with a fork like a giant meatball, imma stir my shit while its cooking
Sometimes, it's good to cheat using a robot, I still cook my grits the old school way though.
 
Hmmp..."a genius with no common sense"?..Just put her on a mission to collect the real nerds wt common sense and voilà.
