Depending on the markup, the second example in “myth 6” is flat out wrong as the author ignores one of the failure modes for color only - unless there is an accessible name on those success/failure dots, screen reader…
One note: in demo 2, visibility: hidden will make screen readers ignore the headings.

For a while due to a bike trail closure, I pedaled across the Sellwood bridge. Because reasons, I took the south sidewalk and had a great view of oncoming eastbound drivers. I saw many drivers holding/operating their…
The axe extension is very nicely done: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/axe/lhdoppojpmngad...
There are accessibility issues beyond the landmark elements. For instance the close button on the drag and drop example has no accessible name.
Note the date on that. It’s my understanding that with modern browsers, except in pathological cases, selector performance is pretty much a non issue.
And here we are in 2018 on the cusp of what is looking to be a new nuclear arms race. It’s two minutes to midnight: https://thebulletin.org/2018-doomsday-clock-statement/
Am I the only one that wants to puke when I hear/read how hard it was for the exec team to decide to lay people off? It seems like empathy 101 to me to not make the layoff of an employee about you, the one that made the…
Yeah, there’s less of a relationship between those than one would think. Slightly related: it’s time to phase out the mortgage interest deduction and plow that revenue into affordable housing.
Yes, this book changed how I think about death, and life so much.
Mac only, but Monodraw is pretty cool: https://monodraw.helftone.com
And PDX
Yeah, but you don’t operate an automobile by looking at a video display.
Video has shit dynamic range compared to the human eye.
Yeah, the “may have been homeless“ line really pisses me off. Such a blatant bullcrap attempt to devalue a human life.

All good points there, and agreed about automated testing, I think the most you can hope for in that department is linting level testing (color contrast, valid html, associated labels and form controls, etc.) The hard…
I think it may be fixed now but drivers were making left turns from there (SE 6th and Tacoma, Portland, OR) for months. The left turn there is only for cyclists and when the cars stacked up it made for very sketchy…
“Washboard” is the common term for that phenomenon. You can mitigate it by driving faster than you should, but you’ll have basically zero traction.
Pretty sure from some limited sampling that waze is responsible for this cluster [1]. If you zoom in you can see the right-turn only sign at the intersection. What you cannot really see is that two blocks of cars…
I was talking to a colleague tonight about Dishwasher Pete: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dishwasher_Pete
I think I did, apologies for that!
And don’t even get me started about folks taking pictures from 100 feet away with their effing strobes turned on.
