“When life gives you lemons, don’t make lemonade. Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don’t want your damn lemons, what the hell am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life’s manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons! Do you know who I am? I’m the man who’s gonna burn your house down! With the lemons! I’m gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!”

Same. Ridiculous design decision and I would either leave it on its side or upside down.

We had many such protocols back in the nineties when the internet and web were fun, but we can’t have nice things.

Yes, this was a jaded-gen-xer-get-off-my-lawn moment.

These have 500 mile range - baffles me that none of the EVs being made by the west can provide better range than they are now. Seems like 250 is the standard cap for “normal” models. Some way less and some slightly more.

Will our new robot overlord still allow us to hate on Elon?

Can’t speak to PC UI, but for the web, “public good” entities and government institutions have to follow ADA guidelines on usability for differently-abled people. Weird, because the law says this but does not get specific on what exactly must be done to be compliant. The gist is that those entities are “supposed to” follow WCAG, although those are only guidelines and not mandates.

I work in healthcare and our org, although we made best effort to make our site accessible for screen readers, color impairment issues, etc, we were still sued (lawsuit was a bit of a shakedown) and are now working to address and remediate each item in the suit with a third party. We want to be fully compliant but as of yet, there isn’t a “set of rules” that we can all look to make these sites compliant (basically just a bunch of suggestions). Weird times we live in.

I fall into this category.

Any post/article with the word “slammed” in it gets a downvote and a no-read from me. That word needs to disappear from journalism/forums/life/etc.

Not sure about at work, since the decision is out of my hands (I can only recommend), but at the moment if it were up to me, I think I would go with Strapi (headless CMS) plus something like Hugo (static site generator).
