Five predictions for web accessibility in 2026, shaped by AI-driven development, dynamic rendering, and how modern websites are built and maintained.Jason Taylor, Chief Innovation Strategist (UsableNet Inc.)
If you use an AI-generated image for your article/post, this indicates to me you might have also used AI-generated text.
If you use AI-generated text for your article/post then:
1- I have no idea if you verified the veracity of any claimed facts.
2- I have no idea what your own voice is.
3- I have no idea if this truly expresses your own views, and if you even cared to read it.
4- I have no idea what your intention is with this, other than exploiting my attention and clicks with the least amount of efforts on your part.
5- This shows me you have no respect at all for the labour that was stolen to build these tools, exploiting millions of artists and writers to make billions of dollars without any compensation to them whatsoever.
Why would I want to engage with any content like that?
• I don't want to communicate with a machine (I can do that by myself).
• I don't want to participate in this disgusting exploitation of artists and writers.
• And I want to communicate with another human, of course.
If your intention isn't to communicate with another human, then stop deceiving them making them think they are

A collection of bad practices in HTML, copied from real websites.The HTML Elements Time Forgot - HTMHell
Sometime around the 2020 era, we lost the right to be mediocre at things we love.
No longer can you just bake bread...you must start a sourdough side hustle lol. Wanna stay fit and go jogging or running? Nah, you gotta optimize your biometrics for a marathon. What my point is that every hobby has been enshittified and gentrified into a brand opportunity.
This strange infatuation with optimization culture is killing the human spirit.
So this new year, starting tomorrow, one of my resolutions is to do something bad but fun. Maybe I write a terrible poem. I like to draw and paint, so perhaps I will draw a horse that looks like a table or sing off-key in the showers or in front of my loved ones. The algorithm driving the mainstream social media wants me to be a polished product, but my humanity lives in these messy, unoptimized, cringe-inducing joyful failures.
I will try to reclaim the right to be an amateur. Will you join me?

So, the upside down is just the Twilight Zone.
Toward the end of 2024 we added a feature to Thunderbird desktop and Android to import accounts via a QR code (desktop generating the QR code and Android scanning it).
I think this feature should be abused by websites helping their users set up mail accounts (in TB for Android), so I've created a little library that helps with generating the QR codes: github.com/freaktechnik/thunde…

I wonder how bad it is to do Paris to Hamburg by train. Experience welcome.
(also how bad it is to book it from Canada)
around 8½ hours and €90 with one change in Köln or Frankfurt.
I haven't ever done a trip involving SNCF, but this should be bookable directly on bahn.com. I've had no problems with that, even with a Canadian credit card.

"Woman falls from 3rd-floor balcony after being pushed: Montreal police"
Wow that's.. I mean I guess the headline technically isn't the passive voice since there's someone taking an action but I think they might have written it with the wrong actor verbing.

A woman is in critical condition after being allegedly pushed from a balcony and falling three storeys in Montreal’s Mercier-Hochelaga-Maisonneuve borough.Daniel J. Rowe (CTVNews)
still. she didn't push herself. "Man allegedly pushes woman to her fall from 3rd story balcony" doesn't really ring the same bullshit...
This is journalist malpractice IMHO.
There have been thousands of potholes, PRE-freezing rain this week... what about THOSE POTHOLES?!?

... does the cost of adding it reduce the number of buyers and therefore their profit?
Of course!
"Lanier [Black & Decker's national coordinating counsel] expressed concern that if any manufacture licensed the safety feature, all others would be forced to do likewise, or risk litigation following injuries with their products."
Gah!
When all your competitors are forced to pay the same costs (such as a raise in the minimum wage) then your customers will always be the ones paying for the change.
It seems like business owners do not understand competitive markets.

Democrat Positions in 2024 vs What MAGA Pretended They Were:
ON ABORTION: Let's weigh the possible rights of the unborn fetus against the actual rights of the adult woman whose body it's in and allow the mother the right to make the medical choice whenever possible.
WHAT THEY PRETENDED: Let's kill babies after they're born.
ON IMMIGRANTS: Let's give immigrants a safe and legal path to full American citizenship in this country, and while that's happening, remember that they are still human beings and are granted rights under our Constitution.
WHAT THEY PRETENDED: Let's allow all the fentanyl dealers unfettered access across our border so they can rape people, because we hate America.
ON TRANS PEOPLE: Let's let trans people exist, and provide access to safe and legal means of providing them life saving medical care.
WHAT THEY PRETENDED: Let's kidnap eight year olds in the middle of the school day and perform forced gender transition surgeries on them for fun.

Mój feed na ćwierkaczu od dwóch dni zawalają statystyki na temat pitbullów.
Dlaczego?
Bo jedną osobę (chyba kobietę, ale nie jestem pewny) zajmującą się statystyką pogryzł pitbull i teraz i ona (on?) i wszyscy inni wrzucają obrazki takie, jak ten..
.. i nawołując do sterylizacji, zakazu posiadania oraz hodowli itd.
Re: #lastBoost. I was in San Diego at the beginning of december, and one of my Uber drivers (if you can still call them that) had a Tesla.
He looked in the stats, and since the last firmware update, ~90% of the miles driven were full FSD.
During our trip, he only took control once, when he didn't like the route the FSD was taking. However, it turned out that the route he wanted was actually blocked, so the FSD was right all along.

Два різних путіна звертались до росіян в цю новорічну ніч — InformNapalm звертає увагу на відмінності між версіями плешивих диктаторів, яких «крутили» по рашаТБ.
У першій версії російський президент був одягнений у чорну краватку. Однак уже за лічені хвилини це відео зникло з ресурсу, замість нього з'явився інший запис – цього разу з путіним у червоній краватці.
Через подібні факапи в минулих роках, аналітики припускають, що звернення «путіна» штампують за допомогою ШІ.

@bagder Random question, based on your recent boost (TIL! TY!).
Why does:
curl -w "%{json}" example.com
print all the JSON-ified variables on one line, but:
curl -w "%{header_json}" example.com
print the JSON-ified response headers on separate lines?
With one line, it's a lot easier to parse via jq.
Thanks!!
