Book cover with the title and subtitle in blue letters at the top reading Digital Accessibility Ethics: Disability Inclusion in All Things Tech. Below the title, taking up about 2/3 of the cover is a painting.  The painting features arcs of yellow, orange, blue, turquoise, pink, and purple. The lower half of these swaths of bright colors are populated by abstract figures, circles, and building-like shapes. According to the artist, the work uses sheet music as a foundation, creating an abstract typographical interpretation of musical notation through bold design and color. Resting on the top left corner of the images are the words Edited by Lainey Feingold, Reginé Gilbert, Chancey Fleet. On the bottom right corner are the words CRC Press, Taylor & Francis Group.

Dem voters are going to spin their wheels calling for Schumer to resign while whoever would take over for him would do the exact same things he's done. The. same. things. The rot is pervasive.

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

Today's AWS outage is causing many sites to load slower than usual. That means images might not be loading as fast as they normally do. But if you've remembered to add alt text to your images, your users will still be able to get the context and content of your images on your site.

Life happens. Through no fault of their own people lose their jobs, housing, and health every day and when those things happen it's very often appropriate and responsible to surrender pets. Those are all VERY common reasons why pets end up in shelters, not because they are defective animals.

Folks, having a solid crew of comrades you can rely on in real life or virtually is always essential and in the coming years we are all going to need to lean on each other.

The GOP controls the whole Federal government. They have to fund it. If they don't, it's their fault. [see how easy that is].

Autistic and neurodivergent people deserve far better than a government looking to prevent their existence, let alone one that will invent fictitious ways to do so that puts everyone in danger

RFK Jr.'s vaccine panel backs away from plan to require an Rx for a COVID shot The group voted to require people who want a COVID shot to be briefed on harms and benefits, but in a close vote, the panel failed to pass a change that would have asked states to require people to get a prescription.
