I was thrilled to be interviewed for Double Tap, a daily blindness tech podcast, hosted by @stevenscott and Shaun Preece. This program is produced for AMI in Canada but is available wherever you get your podcasts.
On today’s show, Steven, Shaun and I talk about the BT Speak Pro from Blazie Technologies, a pocket computer featuring a nine-key Braille keyboard and speech output.

I'm happy to share that the just-released Rustls 0.23.10 (github.com/rustls/rustls/relea…) adds support for Encrypted Client Hello (ECH) when connecting to compatible remote servers.
This technology helps protect some of the last bits of plaintext metadata in a TLS 1.3 handshake, most notably server-name-indication (SNI). If you'll indulge me, I'd like to share some thoughts from the process. [1/10]
draft-ietf-tls-esni-18 encrypted client hello (ECH) is now supported for client applications. See the ech-client.rs example for a complete end-to-end demonstration using DNS-over-HTTPS to retrieve ...GitHub

The evidence fails to support the claim that homework is academically beneficial for students in any meaningful sense, as I showed in this chapter from my book The Homework Myth: alfiekohn.org/homework-improve….
Many HW defenders quickly pivot to claiming that it promotes self-discipline, responsibility, time management & study skills, etc. Yet over the last 20 years I've been unable to find a single study that supports this folk wisdom about HW's supposed nonacademic advantages.

Chrome / TalkBack bug I first reported in 2020, and which was fixed for a time (?) appears to be back. Looking for confirmation before I file yet another one.
A named region with a `tabindex` does not expose its contents. Chrome / TalkBack only announces its accName and role.
I think I have an ugly workaround (“Shawarma” heading).
Test case:
codepen.io/aardrian/pen/Exzyad…
Similar to issue I filed earlier this month, which I limited to APG tab panels.
As expected, the Chromium intake person was unable to reproduce the issue (it may have been kit this time?), so I got 5 people to confirm and added a video:
issues.chromium.org/issues/342…
I really do hate how hard it is just to get a bug to get taken up.
I mean, I had to re-file this one because the original was closed due to not reading instructions:
issues.chromium.org/issues/342…
Anyway, thanks for those who helped.
Good news, everybody!
Fix coming in v128, or 20 Aug 2024 (stable release), for this Chrome / TalkBack bug:
Named regions with `tabindex` hide content from TalkBack
issues.chromium.org/issues/342…
There are two related bugs that I am hopeful it will fix but no idea?
Anyway, file bugs. It’s the only way stuff has a chance to get fixed.

Thanks @bagder ! Now I don't want to use GitHub anymore! Or to work with my teammate (and myself sometime) that writes poor commit messages because nobody cares since GitHub hides them...
I also know why sometime I feel stupid writing commit messages that nobod will look at xD
😩 when reading blog post makes me sad! 😅
@indrora I understand and appreciate that these don’t fit your workflow, but neither of these mitigations specifically are mentioned in the blog post? Which, fine, I totally agree with the main thesis and I also hate that so much of our UX these days is on websites.
But mostly I just wanted to mention them for folks stumbling on this thread for whom they *might* work.

Friday: Employee surveillance is on the rise. Wells Fargo has fired employees citing "simulated keyboard activity" as a grounds for expulsion.

my current company has stated the same as well. We are required to use tracking software on our personal devices for them to monitor. This software takes screenshots of all displays every 10 minutes, tracks mouse and keyboard activity, tracks the apps I’m using and for how long, and the same for any URLs visited.
Management can then view all of this information on an online dashboard.

Which shouldn’t exist, but is also why I keep it, because yes, registrars are supposed to deny domains which conflict with other characters after Unicode normalization. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unicod….
Windows dns will also potentially behave differently as well depending on just how close the normalized forms are.
