A lot of opinions, a lot of academic studies, some lab testing, too little feedback from people with disabilities and too much hype - I need to add.Bogdan Cerovac (Bogdan on Digital Accessibility (A11y))
The language you use in job postings has some influence on whether you attract narcissists. A recently reported study adds some quantitative weight to this: arstechnica.com/science/2025/0…
I've found this transparently self-evident since I worked at (Google)X, which had a curious knack for attracting manipulative and problematic people into positions of authority. (Not all of them! But enough.) My "how to write job descriptions to get the people you want to work with" manual has helped discourage this at Oxide, though time will tell how well it sticks.

Every time I read about or use ISO8601, I get sad that it's not the standard for everyone everywhere. Dates are unambiguous. Dates sort from oldest to newest automatically, even if they're strings, like in file names. Times use 24-hour format, which is obviously superior to the 12-hour format my country clings to. Decades and centuries can be represented easily. The week stuff is confusing, but everything else just makes sense.
I cannot stress enough: starting my day twice a week with fixthenews.com/ is great for me. I strongly recommend it for you.
We can’t hide from the challenges of the world, but it’s also deeply unhealthy to only consume bad news. Read FTN to be reminded good things can and do happen.

Closing in on the first big milestone of Exchange support in @thunderbird! One of the last major items on our list before the next big step is the ability to copy folders - including from outside an Exchange account into one - and I've just managed to get it to work locally. It's not fully done yet, and there's still more work needed elsewhere before everything is ready to test, but it's good progress regardless 😁
The colours in the video are a bit naff, I blame the screen recording tool.

Happy Open-Source Day!*
Open-Source brings so many benefits. NV Access is proud to be part of the community, from welcoming code contributions, to decreasing cost for users around the world. It's easy to see why "Open-Source First" is a popular policy for governments & companies everywhere.
(*At least in Florence, Italy - a quick search found several dates this year - Open Source not only brings innovation, but also choice!)

@patricus @kev have you got any published figures to back that up or are you just talking anecdotally from your own experience?
Not criticising either way, just curious. I did have a quick look and couldn't find any statistics either way on accessibility of open vs closed source. My point was that whether a program is open or closed source is not of itself related to whether it is accessible or not, but I would be interested to see any research which does exist

I'm searching for a picture of a #toilet with an #armrest, attached to the toilet. The license of the picture must allow to reuse it (e.g. a #CreativeCommonsLicense).
Examples of the type of picture I need can be found on essenlux.com/products/comfort-…; healthcaresolutions.ca/product… or hmi-basen.dk/en/r11x.asp?linki… (but those have an unclear license).
I'm _not_ searching for pictures showing grab rails (neither wall-mounted or fold-down items), we already have plenty of those!

in reply to Alex • • •i understand the connection to roko's basilisk, and i agree with your assessment there, but what is the connection to effective altruism?
i only just now looked it up on wikipedia; the pitch seems harmless enough, but it seems the people involved in it twisted it into something else. i found this paragraph which is perhaps the connection you allude to?

in reply to LR • • •I'd agree the premise has been twisted, if it didn't come from a source that obviously created it as a cover for their fascist BS
