@firefox.com I’m having a serious problem with slow loading pages (mostly GitHub because I do the ‘puters) - disabled all plugins and still problems, Safari and Chrome load fine. Please don’t make me go back

Among the things that most AI coding tool users get wrong, by far the biggest culprit is tackling too much at once. This is a bad idea in software development, whether we're using LLMs or not. But it's a REALLY bad idea when we are. codemanship.wordpress.com/2026/05/09/c...

Hello all! My current consulting workload has lightened up a bit, and I have some free time to offer up my services to devs or studios looking for help with their game's accessibility. If interested, you can DM me, or email me at [email protected] www.stevesaylor.net/accessibility

The top feature project on Instructables today is by my Physical Computing students Noah Priest & Vinith Ayapilla! An accessible driving game created for children with disabilities in the Campus School at Boston College. Built in #CircuitPython. #MakerSpace www.instructables.com/Accessible-D...

When used thoughtfully, hiding buttons from assistive technology users can make your app easier to understand and quicker to navigate. Custom Accessibility Actions expose that functionality for VoiceOver, Voice Control, and Switch Control users mobilea11y.com/blog/a11y-cu... #SwiftUI #Accessibility

Thank you and so long @androidmakers.bsky.social 2026! Thank you for hosting “Hack for good: Android accessibility testing with a flipper zero” - so much fun connecting with such a lovely and engaging crowd! #android #accessibility

"SwiftUI is accessible by default" is one of the most repeated misconceptions in iOS development. I've heard it in conference talks, accessibility reports, and job interviews. First post on Mobile A11y in 4 years. mobilea11y.com/blog/swiftui... #Accessibility #a11y #MobileA11y #SwiftUI #iosdev

Stevie Wonder played my game! Whoop whoop!

Today I learned I’m never trusting a raspberry pi for computation ever again

I’m here at an A.I. agent authoring event all by myself. “I’m not here to make friends” I think to myself. Or am I…?

Accessibility is the process of making something usable and worthwhile

Dear TV, I don’t like spoilers, especially when I’m just about to start watching. Thanks.

We’re super excited to support #GameBlast26! From February 27th to March 1st, the SEGA Stream Team will be fundraising for Special Effect to help make gaming more accessible 🧡 Stay tuned for more details and announcements coming soon 👀

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.

Sure, it took me 8 months to get something working (in my spare time, mind you). But I got it. On their own or even as a pair, with all the documentation and references, they can't get a simple BLE Keyboard going.

Why are we hiring so many designers? I analysed 256 design system roles. The ratio of designers to engineers was telling. In my last team, we deliberately ran the inverse. If the biggest value comes from code, are we building design systems or just designing them?

Even AI can't get a #raspberryPi to be in portrait mode... What hope do the rest of us have?

Follow us on YouTube and help us reach 10,000 subscribers! We’ll be starting to stream on YouTube in earnest from 2026 and would love to have you there! www.youtube.com/gameonforeve...

Wait wait wait. It's 2025 and you can't extract links from cells in Google Sheets?

For GameAccess we recently took a look at Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown, that launched on mobile platforms following a PC and console release in 2024, which features a wide range of accessibility options! Take a look at our breakdown of the controls here: gameaccess.info/prince-of-pe...

An app is trying to force me into a "free trial" with no mechanism to opt out. I can't complete the desired journey as a result. I do pay for use of the app already. Does anyone know where to report this kind of thing?

Meaningful conversation? Nah

There is something about the empty sincerity of "You're absolutely right!" from LLM's that is really starting to bug me...

Everyone loves mansplaining until customer support actively seeks it out

Finally gave up and decided to play the worlds most boring single player online only action rpg and after already updating Gb on Tuesday... 1.02Gb update.

Whoever wrote the invisble conversion from Maven to Gradle when pasting dependency references in @intellijidea.com - sersiously thank you so much

Something wicked this way comes... and we need your help! 👻 Calling all streamers and creators. We need you to take on horror games, scary games and everything a little ghoulish during our upcoming event, SpecialEffect SCREAM Team! When: Oct 27th - Oct 31st Where: tiltify.com/specialeffec...

Happy new iPhone day, too all those who celebrate

It's-a me! A new game access post on Mario Kart World! Check out our latest video all about the in-game assists and controls available in games! www.youtube.com/watch?v=yWTI...

So, let's see what we've learned so far. "A.I." coding assistants produce better results ("value earned/tokens burned") when you: * prompt with tests * work in small feedback cycles with continuous testing, code review, refactoring and integration * cleanly separate concerns in your code LOL
