A je tu zase #copyrightiade prokazující, že ČT24 má ve skutečnosti dvě varianty - ta lepší je ta v DVB-T2, ta horší je pak na satelitu a internetu.

Ale ostatně co by člověk čekal od akce, která si prolobovala svou vlastní instanci autorského zákona:

Vždycky si říkám, kdo bude další se svým vlastním zákonem na "ochranu symboliky."

The first one is a custom @MapComplete theme, but @MapComplete does more stuff with Wikidata. There biggest (and coolest) integration is mapcomplete.org/etymology; but many themes also show and ask for relevant wikidata items (such as mapcomplete.org/artwork and mapcomplete.org/memorials showing e.g. artists, the article about the artwork or for memorials whom is buried there)

In einem anderen Post als schlechten Screenshot gesehen. Habe die Originalgrafik gesucht. Hilft vielleicht ein wenig, um sich und andere in gewissen Dingen nicht zu sehr zu kasteien.

Back in March I scanned through a terabyte of old geocities sites with the goal of finding *all* the 88x31 buttons. Recently, I realised that I didn't scan for all the geocities subsites (e.g. de.geocities.com, br.geocities.com, etc). I've fixed that mistake and have added 1.8k new 88x31 buttons from Germany, Brazil, Hong Kong and many more international sites. Feel free to explore the updated site or download the zipped button archive (31k buttons, 156MB)

The End of an Era: A Message From the Founder as We Announce the Closure of AppleVis | AppleVis applevis.com/blog/end-era-mess…

As usual great post from @yatil yatil.net/blog/the-infuriating…

Fixing issues in development is way cheaper for sure. Wish #NIST had some values for fixing issues upstream? So many problems could be fixed (I think) if we pushed to fix accessibility issues in the software that we use.

Open source is a big part of the internet. Almost everything includes some open source packages. How do we get folks contributing beyond the scope of their project?

👏 more 👏 developers 👏 need 👏 to 👏 hear 👏 this

I can count on one hand the number of my clients over the past couple of years who haven't either over-architected for scale or were unnecessarily concerned about it (prior to coming to me for strategic advice, of course 😉).

You don't need to understand Distributional Little's Law to figure this out, it's obvious with primary school level math.

Another example of Communuty Notes on X being useless:

"This is an AI generated video of Vice President Kamala Harris using audio of clips that were never actually stated by the VP,” read one suggested Community Note. “Videos like this are dangerous to those who can not decipher AI generated content from reality.”

X is now basically Gab. Another reason to organize here.

Bottom image: scene of the Enterprise bridge during turbulence, tilted at a sharp angle. Everybody is stumbling and falling.

The baby is rocking the ship lol.

I honestly wish the audio games forum was shutting down instead of @AppleVis but on a more serious note, I'd love the site to be given to the community or archived in some way because this is blindness history and there is no other comparable repository of accessible apps for iOS. Can someone, anyone, talk to David and the team and preserve the apps databases, at least? Give the website to the community, don't just shut it down completely because there's a lot of community value. Shut down the forums, but at least keep the repositories and blog posts alive for as long as the domain and host will last. applevis.com/blog/end-era-mess… #Apple #Blind #Accessibility
in reply to Robert Kingett backup

Someone still has to pay for the hosting and bandwidth and maintain the system; security updates, etc. And even if someone else offered to do it, the AppleVis folks have to trust that they'll do a good job and not misrepresent anything or tarnish its historical reputation. Situations like this are super tricky. The reality of the situation is that because this was all voluntary, they owe the community nothing, nor should they.
in reply to Jamie Teh

@jcsteh I totally see and understand what you're saying, but if they knew about this several months in advance, why didn't they start a search for someone who could potentially take it on? I'm sure there are many in this community who are trustworthy and want to see the site succeed, and have the necessary skills to make that happen. It doesn't make sense, and both the blog post and final decision seem rushed without much consideration.
in reply to Pratik Patel

@ppatel @acarson @jcsteh Agree… I did write to David asking him for the list of things that anyone wanting to take this on would have to consider. I somehow think website / Drupal administration is not going to be the hardest of them. :) Yes, there is web hosting and such, but in David’s blog entry it seemed like the concerns were beyond technical.
in reply to victor tsaran

@acarson @vick21 @ppatel The handover itself is a lot of work. Maybe he just doesn't want to deal with that. Sometimes with community projects, you feel like you can never leave, because even if you pass it to someone else, you still end up answering questions, resolving issues, providing guidance, etc. I'm not saying this is necessarily the way I would choose to do things - as I said, ideally there would have been succession planning - but also understand how exhausting this kind of thing can be. It's entirely reasonable that someone would just be over it and want a clean out.
in reply to Cristobal

@Cristobalm @jcsteh @jscholes I've moderated several discussion groups over the years and none of them were as big and numerous as the ones on AppleVis. Even moderating those small groups, one or two in particular, were quite a chore as I had to deal with a small subset of users who couldn't seem to follow simple guidelines. It was taking a toll on my mental health and I gave them up and never once looked back. In my case, I put the word out that I was looking for someone to take over and I had people who were willing to step up. With AppleVis, just moderating those forums would be quite a huge job and you'd need several moderators, possibly one or two for each forum.
