Nah, you can see it break down towards the end - when one of them goes to say "shoot" and the one on the left says "fire", and the one on the right stops saying "shoot" and takes the cue to say "fire". Also, with the cadence, etc. this is intentional

Great article. I'm a Maine Celtics season ticket holder, and getting to watch the team up close and watch the guys develop and grow, has made me more invested and more connected as a fan of them individually, of the team, and of basketball itself.

Fantastic. Thanks Cory!

Have you thought about pulling in images, etc?

That when we think about the systems we live and engage in, we come to the realization that they're corrupt - and that's f*cking scary.

Good evening, and welcome to Masterpiece Digital Theater. Tonight we present a compelling drama that explores the world of digital accessibility - or rather, its charlatan counterfeits.

The last few years have been so mild here in Maine, I was convinced it was the new normal

As someone in a similar position (minus the speaking gigs), I do think this work will continue. I think many of the larger orgs understand the fluctuations that come with presidencies, and won't abolish programs. I do think they'll do the proverbial belt tightening and maybe even rename programs

As you found, `opacity` or `visibility`, don't remove the element from tab order.

There was a race here in Maine that gave away pies as prizes. I'll take a pie over an ill-fitting t-shirt any day.

Kylor led the G-League in blocks last year for the Maine Cs. He was fun to watch.

Scoop: Apple CEO Tim Cook donates $1 million to Trump inauguration Cook joins other top CEOs and companies in making a seven-figure pledge.

How often do you update? And by what measurements? Apple is good in that it has upheld DEI efforts, but Tim Cook also gifted Trump $1M for his inauguration. www.axios.com/2025/01/03/t...

I've done this on reddit, and I generally just add "alt text: [the alt text]"

Also, join a run club. I enjoy my solo runs, but having the scheduled run every week and chatting with folks is really helpful in building that routine

It becomes routine with routine. For motivation, I found that listening to audiobooks was helpful, as I would only listen to them when I ran. So, if the book was good, then I needed to run to get back to it.

@goodsuniteus.bsky.social ?

In attempts to reduce enriching those that don't need it, and that use it for ill, does anyone know how often Goods Unite Us reindexes their analysis? Especially in light of this last week.

The problem with "AI" accessibility tools is that they lack context. An AI tool may be able to determine what is in an image, but won't understand why the author decided to include that image or what it represents to them.

B. The super long descriptions of self care products, etc. were a slog to read through and gave some understanding to Patrick's state of mind. I think the movie captured, but the audience didn't go through the same slog of reading those unending paragraphs of descriptions, which wore the reader down

2 cents: I think American Psycho was better in book form for two reasons: A. The dynamic between "is this real/not real" was more powerful, leaving us more unsure if the he was actually committing these heinous acts.

I listen when driving and when running. When I started running more regularly, the audio books were a great and enticed me to go for runs more often and for longer. Find your equivalent. Additionally, when you hear a narrator that you like, explore more narrations by them.

, providing accessibility expertise to organizations, building testing frameworks and accessibility governance, and being both a UX Designer and an Engineer.

Cheers.
