- While this is a humorous commercial and obviously planned, it shows how voice-controlled devices can be difficult for people with accents. @dianasoyster.bsky.social has a great talk about this very subject. #A11y #UX #VUX youtu.be/z_rNK3PtNYM?...
- I guess Lauren will have to be on time since this is TV #grammys

- Here's the video of my friend flying his LEGO Millennium Falcon around the house 😂

- Had a great discussion around the use of AI, A11y maturity, and design system governance at the Patterns event yesterday. It was a small group of leaders from various logos who shared and discussed design systems and accessibility. #A11y #DesignSystems

- My thoughts on Accessibility Conformance Reports rightbadcode.com/accessibilit... #Accessibility #ACR #VPAT
- the new deque.com site is nice
- I had a dream last night where several others and I were protesting. We were walking up a hill in the rain, chanting and throwing stones. The stones were shaped like accessibility terms such as "WCAG", "A11y", and "Semantic". It's indicative of the struggle many of us face in this industry.
- people who put forks and knives pointing up in the dishwasher are not ok.
- I'm speaking about the role of cognitive, emotional, and compassionate empathy in product design at #CodeStock2026 in April. Hope to see you there.
- This is your reminder to check up on your people, especially the quiet ones. Folks are not as ok as you might think.
