Yeah, hi, I’m a person with “mobility challenges” (excuse me while I hurl). What we want, by and large, are not expensive, heavy devices that will “help us walk again”, but ramps.

I know, it’s not sexy, as technology invented before Christ, but it is overlooked in favor of…this. Repeatedly.

I am trying to learn VoiceOver on MacOS and I’m getting really frustrated that the Tab key works differently than Windows.

Be a hero. Destroy your Ring cameras.

This Super Bowl is going to be full of AI ads isn’t it? Like crypto a few years ago. Sigh.

I need a magical item with +3 to Diplomacy

BULLYING WORKS!

It’s so weird when apps include fullscreen iframes or web views to 3rd party content like we just won’t notice. It’s always a bad experience.

Vestibular disorders affect people's balance as well as their visual perception of their world around them. Don't make animations, sliders, videos, or rapid movement start automatically, as autoplaying elements could trigger a bad reaction in people who have vestibular disorders.

This happens all the time in native mobile apps too.

iOS: Apply the .isHeader trait to heading text

Android: Give heading text the Heading role

Accessibility For Everyone by Laura Kalbag Read the book online for free.

My book, Accessibility For Everyone, is now free and online as a website.

accessibilityforeveryone.site

The book was first published by A Book Apart in 2017 but it holds up! It covers web accessibility for designers, developers, content folks, and really everyone who works in tech.

The wild thing is watching companies spend years ignoring accessibility (building div soup with misused ARIA) and now seeing AI models fail to understand their sites. Turns out AI can’t infer structure where none exists.

This is a graphic with yellow background and black text that reads: Alice’s Celebration of Life will happen on March 25th, 2026. While close friends & family will gather in-person in San Francisco, all of Alice’s many admirers, and friends from around the world will be able to join the celebration through livestream. More details about how to tune into the livestream, and other satellite locations for the celebration will be shared. We are mindful that in this moment of so many painful events going on that we continue to carry Alice’s enduring spirit for disabled rage and her maximalist love for life. Wherever and however you choose to celebrate and honor Alice in the coming months, we welcome all of these ways and the many more that will continue to keep Alice’s legacy with us.

PSA, your mobile application has to work in portrait AND landscape. There are way to many users who use their phones in landscape mode (for various reasons) and by not allowing your app to support both you are not allowing all users to use your app.

We have been told for nearly 30 years that America needed to tolerate mass shootings because the broad availability of guns would help us defend ourselves from an overreaching federal government. That day has come. The people who said this are supporting the federal agents. Many have joined them.

Me too most of the time. I just got a new 5-pack in black. So comfy.

I decided to host my own website to share wedding photos so I own the content.

Hence even the best AI writing detection plugin is likely to mistake human writing for AI writing. So, rather than test your AI-generated copy for AI flags using an AI detection plugin, why not do something new and write text worth reading?

Still have mosquitoes in January. I hope this winter storm kills them.

Too much of my time is spent waiting for the combination of the right build details, credentials, login and various *waves hand* APIs working in QA.
