Made a little browser extension to translate numbers into words when you toggle a button. I've been thinking about it since listening to @accessiblenumbers.bsky.social Accessible Numbers podcast. I haven't quite cracked big numbers yet but just wondering if this would actually be useful?

Can anyone suggest a strategy for turning old presentations into accessible and useful documents, please? 8 of my old presentations are available online but not fully accessible. Some information is now out of date too. speakerdeck.com/laurawritesux

I listened to this brilliant conversation between Ray & Laura. Thoughtful & brave. I'd recommend everyone listen to this From @raynewman.bsky.social 'I'm still a 9-year-old boy worrying that my dad's going to get made redundant and we won't be able to pay the rent or eat next week'

‘Checkout as guest’ is my new love language.

Does anyone else catch themselves leaning towards the screen to read/watch content instead of maximising the content. Either by zooming in or using the full screen button?

Actually, conversations like this on trauma-informed design between @rachelanne.bsky.social, @janemcfadyen.bsky.social and @accessiblenumbers.bsky.social are to my ears, essential listening for anyone working in content. Perfect example of why I choose to amplify others through the newsletter.

Trauma-informed design with @janemcfadyen.bsky.social and @rachelanne.bsky.social. We discuss how stress, anxiety and trauma impact the use of services, and practical strategies for creating clear, simple and empathetic content. Timestamps and transcript: accessiblenumbers.com/trauma-infor...

Thinking of how we use one data point to assume everything about a person. Someone has wifi so they must be well off (they might be using free wifi on a bus or library). Someone uses Dragon software so they must be blind (they could have a motor disability or be dyslexic).

Accessibility and intersectionality with @priyanca.bsky.social (dedicated to Vicky Teinaki). We discuss #dyscalculia, intersectionality, and the complexities of managing multiple access needs, as well as common service barriers and tips for designers. accessiblenumbers.com/accessibilit...

It’s brilliant to see this out in the wild. My old team at HMRC built this interactive accessibility personas prototype to do online accessibility awareness sessions. It has since been iterated to include a dyscalculia persona.

Interactive dyscalculia persona 👩🏻‍💼 Follow Helena as they try to pay for car mileage using an inaccessible service. Thanks to Faye Gardner and the HMRC accessibility team. So happy to be involved in this.

Dyscalculia is persistent difficulty in understanding numbers. Roughly 4 million people in the UK are dyscalculic. 20% to 60% of dycalculics might also have dyslexia, dyspraxia, autism or ADHD. Dyscalculia is under diagnosed and research is decades behind dyslexia. dyscalculianetwork.com
