It’s Mid-2022 and Browsers (Mostly Safari) Still Break Accessibility via Display Properties
It was late 2020 when I last tested how browsers use CSS display properties to break the semantics of elements.Adrian Roselli
Remember in August when I gave a talk about HTML tables for the WebAIM online conference?
That video is online!
I have embedded it on my site:

Viele Leser wünschen sich eine Betrachtung/Analyse von Lern- und Schul-Apps. Da ich bisher nur die App Anton von meiner Tochter kenne, benötige ich weitere Informationen, um mir ein umfassenderes Bild davon zu machen, welche Apps genutzt werden. Vielleicht sind ja auch einige Lehrer unter den Lesern, die ihre Erfahrungen teilen können?

I've told this story at conferences - but due to the general situation I thought I'd retell it here. A few years ago I was doing policy research in a housing benefits office in London. They are singularly unlovely places.Terence Eden’s Blog
Some of you may have noticed a new logo appearing in various places around the web.
🎉
We now have a new logo for Librecast thanks to @mray
You may already be aware of his work as he designed the #ActivityPub logo.
It's been a work in progress and if you're curious about the progress @mray has been livestreaming his progress as the design came to shape.

It's been a fascinating process. Mray also created the librecast matrix room, so he's a great community player. Having such a contribution is amazing, our ecosystem needs more than code. It needs people being inspired and contributing by documentation, packaging, talking to others about the projects you love.
Helping us to improve.
Thank you so much Robert, for contributing so much of your time to create this logo for Librecast!
We're happy to have you as part of our community.

Of course masks do not provide perfect protection. However, they reduce the number of onward transmissions.
Just like seat belts do not prevent all deaths due to car accidents, but increase your chances of survival.
However, fewer infections (plus network effects, imo) = an effect reducing deaths more than one might think.
Porter breaks its own rules by kicking deaf woman and her service dog off a flight
Deaf passenger Georgina Villeneuve says she's tired of having to explain to airlines what the rules are around service animals on flights. The Edmonton woman was kicked off a Porter flight last month after the flight attendant didn't know the airline's own rules. #press
There is a notion that "spanking is bad parenting" comes from a desire to be soft & permissive. Having interacted with many young people and their parents? It just doesn't work. And when it fails it can do so catastrophically.
Children need consistent boundaries. They need to know the adults in charge of those rules love them and care about them.
The most confused, unable to self-regulate children I've ever worked with had parents very proud of spanking them.
Well… this is new.
Last Friday I left my job of 21 years by way of redundancy. That’s a pretty significant chunk of my adult life invested into a single place. So it’s going to be a big change.
As I step into the first Monday morning in years where I haven’t had anything scheduled in an Outlook calendar… I say ‘fuck it’ and opt for McDonald’s Breakfast.
Onwards and upwards, folks.

Did you know IBM helped Hitler carry out the Holocaust? Is it in any way surprising that we can’t do anything about Big Tech and toxic oligarchs like Elon Musk when even those who helped carry out one of the worst tragedies in human history remain unpunished? Should it come as a shock that the very same bastards are funding and pining for fascism today?

To query the inode number from a pidfd, you use a simple fstat() call, and look at the .st_ino field.
There's currently no way to get from a pidfd inode number directly to a process however. Hence, for now you always have to pass around a combination of classic PID and the new pidfd inode number. This can be safely and correctly be turned into a pidfd: 1. first acquire a pidfd from the PID via pidfd_open(). 2. Then fstat() the fd, and check if .st_ino matches the expected value.
If you want a world-wide unique identifier for a process it makes sense to combine the pair of pid_t and pidfd inode number with the system's boot ID (i.e. /proc/sys/kernel/random/boot_id). This triplet is awesome, because for the first time we can uniquely identify a Linux process, globally in this universe.
In systemd we are making use of this heavily now: internally we always store a triplet of pid, pidfd, pidfd inode for referencing processes we manage and…

Carl Devos na njet van Vooruit in Gent: "Zal gevolgen hebben in Antwerpen en Brussel, en misschien zelfs Kortrijk"
“Je hebt niet alleen een verscheurd Vooruit, maar ook een verscheurde lijst Voor Gent”, aldus Verhulst. “Want de liberalen hebben het bestuursakkoord wel goedgekeurd, en wel bijna unaniem.”
Wat een stom idee ook van de sossen, om samen met Open_VLD één lijst te vormen. Blijf toch gewoon jezelf. #Gent

It troubles me that apparently it needs to be said, but a key factor of online harassment is, that people with literally no personal involvement, stir up a discussion for the kicks.
And then play the "I just wanted to share my opinion" card
It doesn't matter what your supposedly intention is when it's a well known fact how it's going to end up like
There are two options:
you didn't know, then you are irresponsible
you did know, congrats you are an online harasser
