All the tomatoes are coming in! I’m going to try to make my own tomato sauce this time. #gardening

Since I did do my PhD in cyanobacteria growth and treatment optimization modeling AND work in the water treatment industry, I’m gonna share my theory as to what’s happening here and how to fix it. People are focusing on the painted bottom of the pool increasing residual heat, and while that 1/19

my coworker came up to me yesterday and said "is that Africa?" ???

There are other students who write of being able to imagine how AI could be valuable, or even interesting uses they've encountered in, say, computer science courses. But they express real dismay, to the point of despair, over the corporate complicity & enviro degradation involved.

It cracks me up that my husband loves playing this song and video from The Beat Little Whorehouse in Texas, which as largely filmed in and around Austin. youtu.be/AALREbJZEZk?...

TIL Pokemon Go was a data mining scheme to 3D map physical spaces…and people paid cash dollars to do this labor for big tech.

A society with one trillionaire and millions of people in poverty is something to be deeply ashamed of, actually

Kids, make sure you’re maxing out your Roth IRA contributions after getting any employer match on your 401K.

BOS ✈️ AUS I‘m excited to see my husband and cats this evenin!

There’s been a lot of talk in this race about what makes a "real man." A man does what’s right when no one is watching. He upholds his commitments to his family and neighbors. He doesn’t lie, cheat, & steal his way through life. Real men serve others. Weak men serve themselves.

For years, people have tried hard to get websites to build accessibility affordances. Now developers are willingly building them for AI.

Happy Pride to all the Aces

One of the more misogynistic takes currently trending in the AI policy space is "women use less AI than men because they have less tech literacy" Ok but have you considered that women use less AI than men because we have more tech literacy?

Yes. Using a computer now feels like this at all times.

Get practice with semantics by marking up Word documents.

If your link isn’t in the keyboard focus order, make sure you set an href value. These are the building blocks of the web. Do not just throw a tabindex=“0” on a parent element and move on.

I haven’t seen or talked to my ex-husband in 20 years, since the day we walked of the courthouse after our pro se divorce. It’s weird how someone you loved just disappears out of your life.

Now you can keep track of how many billions the AI companies are losing on AI. (Red is spending, green is revenue.) isaiprofitable.com

I’ve been having fun doing front-end dev work on my personal website. I added the purple visited state back to most links for usability.

I’ve switched to the Vivaldi browser on my phone and now my personal laptop. I like it as a Chrome alternative.

We are donating blood today for the 3rd time this year. The promotion is two tickets to the local minor league baseball team.

I got inspired to fix the custom focus indicators on my website because we‘re doing it in the design system at work. The black/white double stroke is so much better.

I love websites!

I GET LOGGED OUT. BUT I LOG IN AGAIN

I don’t care what framework or design system you build with, you need to know how components get rendered in the browser, in HTML.

We have product owners come to us 1 week before go-live asking for an accessibility validation and then being upset when we find high and critical issues. Issues missed by design and missed again by development. But we’re the bad guys for pointing it out 🙃

People are weird sometimes if you don't have kids, they're like what about having a legacy, and I just point to my box of various wires and power cables

I’m tired of my Dem representatives not using alt text in their posts. You are excluding some of your constituents who can’t see images. @doggett.house.gov @jamestalarico.bsky.social #acceasibility is a human right.

Disabled states are everywhere. But they're not accessible. So why are we still using them? 😵‍💫 In this article on @zeroheight.com, Chela Giraldo unpacks her frustration with disabled states and suggests 7 patterns to use instead in your design system to actually help people: #designsystems #a11y

This administration lies every day because most people are too tired or checked out to notice.

PDF tags provide a hidden, structured representation of PDF content that is presented to screen readers. Not all applications support good PDF tag structure, but InDesign, Word, and PowerPoint can. WebAIM has more information on preserving these tags. webaim.org/techniques/a...

The anthropomorphing of AI is a trick to make you trust it. It‘s just machine code.

I just had a realization that a11y folks had to create accessibility annotations because wireframes went away. This is so backwards lol
