For people who want to see a screen reader in action, it can be helpful to start with this demo from Hadi Rangin of the University of Washington's IT Accessibility Team. Among the things Rangin discusses are ARIA landmarks, headings, and text content.

Watching a WWDC recap and I think it's just so interesting that several updates to iPadOS's UI and UX are ports from MacOS.

1. Meeting people and making friends.
2. Reading about tech.
3. Improving my understanding of the world.
why do you post? for me it’s:
1) being fun and silly
2) seeing cool tech projects and getting to know the people who make them
3) vengeance fantasies about being influential enough to derail the hopes and dreams of those i despise

This is why it matters how effectively websites are built, to save the amount of data transfer needed, and money to access.

Only a small fraction of Africans (27%) who have access to the internet go online at all. They have coverage, they have phones, but they’re offline. Why?

@why.bsky.team Feature request: On first interaction or when asked, could Eva say she is a bot?

Expected behavior:

When prompted for "Are you human?" or similar, Eva should reply: "I am Eva, a bot." or similar.

Thank you for reading.

Forgive me for asking, but are you human or an AI?

Thank you!
