Figma is freezing every time I try to edit an annotation. I'm about ready to freeze the entire laptop. In the snow.

I feel semi-confident saying that the most common misunderstanding about how screen reader + keyboard users navigate is that they only use the Tab key.

The Tab key only navigates through interactive elements (links, buttons, inputs).

Is this a button or a link?

Trick question. It could be a button or a link. Although it looks like a button, the design doesn't determines whether it's a button or a link.

Behavior does.

Does it perform an action? It's a button.

Does it navigate to a different page? It's a link.

I just love this feature in the Notes app on the iPhone. When I'm typing out math, it autofills the solutions.

Confusing UX in the wild. Cash only. This machine doesn't accept cash.

Traveling for work is fun. I even snuck some time away to see butterflies at the nature museum. But I can't wait to get home.

This was the back of a sauce I saw when I was in New Mexico that made me laugh.
