In the years since the alleged death of beloved accessibility advocate Susan Banks, mounting evidence and accounts from those close to her work suggest that she was not the person she claimed to be.

Each time this sign goes by in my feed, I mentally add "and Stacy's Mom"
And now I shall spend the day listening to Adam Schlesinger's considerable oeuvre. In addition to his career with Fountains of Wayne, he wrote for the Click Five and the Monkees, for Stephen Colbert and Sesame Street, for the Tony Awards and Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, to say nothing of penning the title track for _That Thing You Do!_
Adam's death in April 2020 will always be the public figure Covid death that hits me hardest
He also wrote some of the songs for the 2007 romantic comedy Music and Lyrics, including the song "Way Back Into Love" that the two leads cowrite in the movie.
@matt I ran out of characters! I could have done another five paragraphs on his awesomeness. I hate thinking about how many songs we were cheated out of when he died. He was also reputed to be the nicest guy in the industry
His "I was just fucking around and it needs a ton of work" demo tape for _What'll It Be_ ended up being recorded and sung nearly note for note in CE-G. He was so so good.
Let me start by saying that this is the most amazingly poignant tale I’ve come across in arcade collecting circles. I’ve written before about incredible rare arcade “finds” …

#cyklovylet se moc nevydařil, počasí mi vůbec nepřálo-jako úkryt se hodil bývalí řopík nad jezerem Most.Po cestě domů druhá vlna 😵💫 Takže durch -ponaučení? Nevěřte meteoradarům ,je to jak s navigací -trošku věřit intuici 😁
@archos Jj je to po těžbě, která tam končila na konci 90.let . Říkalo se tomu měsíční krajina,když si jel tramvají z Litvínova do Mostu tak si to viděl na vlastní oči.Potom začala rekultivace a změna na jezero.Já si myslím že se to povedlo.Jezdil jsem se tam dívat když to začali napouštět,trvalo to několik let.Postupně vznikala malá jezírka která se pak spojila v celek.Už při napouštění se tam zabydlovali různí živočichové, hlavně vodní ptactvo.Bylo zajímavé to sledovat jak se to měnilo
@archos teď bude končit těžba po zámkem Jezeří u Chomutova a tam bude jezero ještě větší,s tím že plánují z části ho pokrýt plovoucí solární elektrárnou
U nás máme Medard, zatím to je asi největší jezero u nás. Má končit Jiří a to mají taky zatopit, to by mělo být o hodně větší. Hlavně je super, že s tím něco dělají.
@archos ale divil by ses kolik se najde hnidopichů kteří budou tvrdit že vytváříme místo bývalých důlních jam mrtvé louže...nejsem žádný hydrobiolog ale myslím si že kdyby to byli mrtvé louže tak se okolní přírodě tak nedaří
Would you please refrain from using this picture next time? I am a dry alcoholic and this is pretty invasive. Especially on a Friday afternoon. I really don't want to unfollow you.
thanks for casting a wider net on the Scorecard discussion.
For my part, I use Scorecard in my day to day, and I want curl using it too as I think you'll help make it better.
@vpetersson I obviously did a terrible job of drawing a line between Scorecard and Best Practices in my @openuk talk and when we chatted on 'Nerding Out with Viktor' because your "being wrong on the Internet" is what dragged me into this🤦♂️

Aux #US on s'intéresse aussi au nouveau #EAA (European #Accessibility Act) car certaines entreprises américaines seront concernées en 2025. En anglais par @dequesystems. deque.com/blog/european-access…
bonjour ! Je cherchais quelqu'un de la communité francophone des spécialistes en accessibilité. Pour le contexte, je suis ressortissant ukrainien, j'habite maintenant à Strasbourg et je suis développeur et spécialiste en accessibilité, non-voyant aussi. Je voudrais vous demander s'il y a des articles détaillés en français pour des gens non-techniques sur l'accessibilité, l'EAA et toutes ces choses. J'éprouve beaucoup de difficultés avec certains services, je leur écris en mentionnant juin 2025 et l'EAA, mais il serait beaucoup mieux si j'avais des preuves, des sources à leur montrer. Merci !

If you need Perkins Brailler #SoundEffects for anything, if you fancy a bit of nostalgia or if you wonder what the thundering thing sounds like recorded through a pair of contact microphones that only pick up the sound on the surface of the device, I made this 67 sound strong sound pack. zapsplat.com/sound-effect-pack…
I'd expected the search to also find layers. E.g. if I type "fietspomp" I'd expect it to show nearby objects of that type, not just objects (unfortunately) named that way
I really love this description of a retracted study: not only does it explain what was retracted (turns out men don't generally divorce their sick wives), but also it covers what the error was (a coding problem treated people who left the study as divorced) how it all went down (someone tried to replicate, asked for data and didn't get the same analysis. Contacted the authors and they were horrified and immediately worked to retract).
It's a really nice story of why replication matters and how to be good at science. This is how I was taught science should work, but I rarely come across such good retrospectives.
A widely reported finding that the risk of divorce increases when wives fall ill — but not when men do — is invalid, thanks to a short string of mistaken coding that negates the origina…

Jinak Sokolov- Klínovec to je 52 km a převýšení zatím 1343 m. Z Klínovce na Božák jsem si asi vylepšil maximální rychlost, jelo to 70 km/hod 😄 Nyní v místní restauraci musím doplnit trochu energie na cestu domů.💪🏼
@Milu Ne jedu bez rozcvičky, většinou delší vzdálenosti se jezdí v pomalejším, něco jako konverzačním tempu. Ono víc náročnější jsou ty kopce na Klínovec, než ujeté kilometry.
Já to měl tedy dnes výrazně skromnější. 😀 Nicméně cesta lesem i nelesem, polem i nepolem (i oraným) a hlavně, tak od půlky, kdy jsem se začal vracet, s půchýřem, protože jsem si vzal nový malo rozšlápnutý boty, ve kterých se mi shrnula ponožka. 🤦♂️ Ale naše hafanka zcela spokojená. 😁
Wem die Energiewende jetzt zu schnell geht, muss sich bei denen beschweren, die sie jahrzehntelang verzögert und verschleppt haben. Jeder musste wissen, dass CO2 sich in der Atmosphäre kumuliert und wir nur noch eine begrenzte Gesamtmenge ausstoßen können. tagesschau.de/inland/innenpoli…
Um die Erderhitzung zu bremsen, drängen Forscher auf einen schnelleren Kohleausstieg. Minister Habeck sagt, in der Kohleregion Lausitz passiere schon viel. Eine viel schnellere Energiewende sei nicht möglich. Von O. Lambrecht und I. Schneider.
