TS kolegove, urcite pracujete s linterem. At uz styl moc neresite, nebo jste dogmatik a pridavate pravidla po kazdem rejectnutem code-review.
Dnes si povime o jednom extreme uzitecnem pravidle:
@typescript-eslint/no-floating-promises
Floating promise je nenapadna, ale zakerna bestie. Vystavujete se s ni v produkci (treba na Vercelu nebo AWS) race conditions, kde runner vas kod vesele zabije, nez neboha funkce dobehne. (zapis do DB? 🙈)

Hi everyone! I made a an audio game 3D platformer where you can edit the map just by editing the included CSV files. Would love to know what you all think of it as I'm thinking of having other projects have editable CSVs!
Programmers fallacies about postcodes: - A postcode covers a small geographic area - A postcode is good enough to locate an end user for generating location suggestions - A postcode will be in a single timezone - A postcode only has a single state - A postcode has no exclaves/enclaves
I would like you to meet 0872. Australia's largest postcode (I think), covers 3 states, has two cut outs (Warbuton and Alice Springs), and even still some mail outside of this area is routed via 0872
The "New Outlook" demands that when adding your #Gmail account, you also give Microsoft a copy of all your Gmail email, contacts, and calendar data.
The "Learn More" link confirms:
"Syncing your account to the Microsoft Cloud means that a copy of your email, calendar, and contacts will be synchronized between your email provider and Microsoft data centers."
My task was to wrote a custom import module in #python that can read data from an excel xlsx document. I had end up implementing it by using #xlrd module initially and later on I discovered it no longer handles xlsx files thus I converted it to use #openpyxl instead.
A question to the #Tech bubble: I would like to use #Thunderbird with a bunch of shared calendars over Caldav. I had this issue two years ago and now here it comes again: Thunderbird becomes very slow as soon as all these calendars are added. They contain plenty of events each, many of them are reoccuring and I have tried both with and without offline support and also disabling autorefresh on some of those. I recall that back when I had the issue last, switching the view to show just one calendar at a time would help but to no avail now. Is this something I have to live with in 2023? ###Mozilla #OpenSource

Not sure if this site is well known outside the niche community of researchers of late Russian Empire klezmer. It gives free access to streaming versions of the Ukrainian National Library's reissue CDs of wax cylinders of #klezmer, #Yiddish song, #nigunim, etc. from the 1910s through the 1930s. Most of these were recorded on folklore collecting expeditions in the Pale of Settlement or later in Soviet Ukraine and Belarus. Some very scratchy, fascinating stuff. audio.ipri.kiev.ua/index.html #WaxCylinder
New article posted by Hasan Çimen: For us visually impaired individuals, accessing image descriptions has long been a challenge.

@Menel It has actually been there for a while, but I have just been too lazy to talk about it anywhere else than our MUC. We're waiting for your bug reports.
It's an #XMPP server component acting as a #Matrix puppeteering gateway, based on slidge. It only supports public unencrypted group chats for now, but has cool features such as emoji reactions, rich replies and message retractions.
Let's make LibreOffice accessible for everyone! Say hello to Michael Weghorn, our new Developer, who'll be focusing on accessibility improvements – like making LibreOffice more usable for people with visual impairments: blog.documentfoundation.org/bl…
The Document Foundation (TDF) is the non-profit entity behind LibreOffice, providing infrastructure and support for the community that makes the suite.
OK, that brightened my whole day. While libreoffice is already kinda accessible, issues with tables especially still persist, where you basically have to see in order to align those correctly, among other things. Another weird one is that one can't use structural navigation or browse mode inside libreoffice, which one can do in windows with office, but also with orca in other web apps. This is especially used for sr users to jump to headings, links, buttons, form elements and such very quickly, so I think this would be very useful to add. Anyway, any accessibility features and roadmaps?
@bgtlover Hi! Michael will initially primarily focus on improving LibreOffice for use with a screen reader, based on issues reported in the Bugzilla issue tracker. List of accessibility-related bug reports: bugs.documentfoundation.org/bu… Supporting browse mode/structural navigation will require work in the screen readers as well. There are already these reports for this: bugs.documentfoundation.org/sh… github.com/nvaccess/nvda/issue… (1/2)
@bgtlover For any other issues you're encountering, please report them to the bug tracker at bugs.documentfoundation.org, and then Michael (and others) can look into them. (2/2)
OK, I'm looking over the list, some of those issues I personally encountered as well, but didn't report them because they would be effectively duplicates. Very interesting the issue with nvda and structural navigation in documents, does orca suffer from the same issues? Do you expose the headings and links and such as normal at-spi accessible objects?
This is great! I use Libreoffice for much of my work, though there are some aspects that make it difficult for visual accessibility reasons.
The first issue: the flip point where text becomes white or black based on the cell color in the spreadsheet is incorrect, as a result, a lot of mid range cell colors end up with text that's not readable (unless the text color is overridden).
Another: the highlight color for certain buttons in the UI when the system is in dark mode makes the text unreadable on the button.
I'm at your disposal if you have any questions about any visual accessibility issues.
@Myndex Thanks, Myndex! Please report any issues you see to the bug tracker at bugs.documentfoundation.org, and then Michael (and others) can look into them 👍
@robini71 That would be awesome. I gave up my Office 365 subscription in December 2020. But, after using less than accessible windows Office alternatives, I bought a Mac.
We have a major announcement: Tenacity 1.3 has finally been released! Check out the release notes here: codeberg.org/tenacityteam/tena…
If you are upgrading from previous betas, we strongly recommend you read the Release Advisories section as that contains important information.
We thank everyone who contributed to this release. Your contributions are invaluable and we simply cannot express how thankful we are because we would not be at this point without them.
Here's what I'll do today and it would be great if you would join me.
On the website you're working on today, find a stylesheet and add the following rule.
``` *, *:hover { cursor: none !important; } ```
That forces you to use the keyboard. If you find something that makes it hard or impossible to do using the keyboard, fix it! Not just for yourself but for everyone relying on keyboard accessibility.

@stary_mrzout no zkoušel jsem to, ale nakonec jsem to stejně na většině svých účtů vypnul. Ale samozřejmě na širokém monitoru to má jisté výhody, ale je snadný se v tom ztratit.
Jo, to používám. Ale někdy přemýšlím, že mi to moc nedává smysl. Ty dvě časové osy jsou často téměř stejné a je v tom trochu chaos. To byl asi po přechodu z Twitteru největší "problém", zvyknout si na jiné, a hlavně trochu jinak se chovající, prostředí. Teď už cajk.
Hey sighted gamers, I'm gonna try to get you to step out of your comfort zone a bit. Yes, believe it or not, despite the game I'm about to promote, this post is not for the blind gamers out there... unless you somehow haven't played it before. Anyway, here goes. While writing my book, I've been tempted to play some games again, and one of them is a game called alt-frequencies. It's a game where the entire story is told in the form of radio broadcasts which you can influence by recording clips from one station and sending them to another. The game is mostly linear, however you can affect the story by sending different clips to different stations, and yes, there are multiple endings. It has minimal graphics, but this game is all about the audio. Sighted gamers, step out of your comfort zone. Try it. It's available on PC, Switch, and mobile, and it's very high-quality. If you want more recommendations, I've got those too. Thanks for reading!
An audio mystery set in a time loop. Record, rewind time and broadcast snippets of radio shows to expose radio hosts, conspiracy theorists and politicians.
A question on behalf of a friend: which appearance theme for the LuCI GUI for #OpenWRT is the most #accessible with screen readers? Any other tips on how to make this experience more accessible? #OpenSource #Blind #Router
Does it make any difference at all with screen readers? The theme - as far as I understand it - only changes the CSS. Or in other words, does a screen reader read websites differently if the CSS is different?
@mark22k Yes, certain unusual CSS patterns that make sense from the perspective of the visual side may disrupt the screen reader experience i.e. items that should be hidden are still discoverable with a screen reader, the order of elements in the DOM may not correspond with the designer's intention and the visual order etc.
My understanding is that GUIs are usually worse than TUIs for #blind users. Sadly, I don't know of any #TUI for #OpenWRT (well, there's the command line, obviously, and there's a class-project over at github.com/mattacwilson/OpenWR…, but that's no replacement for LuCI 😞)

@monnier The friend in question isn't too technically inclined and would rather work with a GUI but thanks for the reply - the TUI project sounds really interesting.
Do you ever boost a toot, then see someone else boost it, and think to yourself: there you go, little toot; travel far! Like your boost had some sort of role in its spreading, and you wish it well.
The nine months of waiting have paid off. We now have a fully accessible Hacker News client, complete with one flick per post/comment, rotor actions and somewhere down the line, three-finger swipes planned or already implemented. The app also offers the ability to compose posts, comment on threads, search for old stories and browse all of the HN's categories. So far, Octal is the best experience I've had accessing Hacker News. apps.apple.com/pl/app/octal-fo… #Accessibility #Blind #iOS #OpenSource

@BorrisInABox @JesseF8693 Things that use the old sound driver fail. AC97. If it's HD Audio it's fine. Windows 10 is fine, for example. Windows 98, ME and XP are using AC97, at least my VM's are, and they break, hard.

Hello everyone! This is the very first open test of my blind accessible game engine called Unseen RPG Engine, a niche game engine that allows anyone to easily make turn based RPGs, at least that's the goal! This is very early and the purpose of this is to try and start getting the critical feedback I'll need to make this accessible, usable, and fun. Learn more about it, join the discord community, and download it here! ericbomb.itch.io/the-unseen-rp…

Hi there, I tried the unseen demo and it doesn't seem to work, though I don't know how it's supposed to work so maybe it's me. It gives me a few options (new game, continue) but I don't seem to be able to open them, and I get errors like this:

Yes, consider Windows Explorer. Space selects the file but you need enter to open it. I think that's a place it comes from. Buttons in dialogue boxes usually take either.
If anybody cares, the city of Poznań, Poland, has published all their public transit announcements, about 2700 of them, for everybody to Download and enjoy. Cc @Piciokztm.poznan.pl/pl/dla-deweloper…
Great! Now somebody could theoretically build those into a transit schedule app to recreate the announcements system inside our pockets for vehicles where this is missing. I believe Poznań updates their info in real time, actual real time, not every 30 seconds like some cities do so this would actually make sense.
You could always use something like this to track the transit you're waiting for more easily. Would be fun to see how well the message in the app and the vehicle actually arriving would synchronize.
Something like this would have been far more useful here in Wrocław, but our APIs are basically nonexistent. You can get GTFS schedules easily, but that’s about it. Realtime data is available in theory, but it breaks pretty often. If you want to get reliable realtime data or electronic access to the interactive schedule boards that you can find at many bus stops, you essentially have to reverse-engineer the official Android app and connect to the API with its username and password. Of course, none of the boards talk. Buses with no PA system at all, a PA system so quiet that you can barely hear it or a PA system that announces the line but not the stop are also pretty common, especially on some lines.
Yes, I've experienced that. Also, the announcement about the line number and direction being played inside the vehicle only or as soon as it leaves the station. Pretty wild!
Yup. Our vehicles seem to be using the same speaker for the next stop / current stop announcements as for the line/direction announcements. If the line announcement plays with the doors closed, you can barely hear it.
Yesterday I released version 0.4.2 of my XMPP client #Moxxy. This version brings many improvements under the hood and some that are more visible, like a "notes" chat, improved reactions display, and so on.
Gajim 1.8.0 has been released 🥳 and it comes with integrated OMEMO encryption! Integrating the OMEMO plugin brings tighter integration and better user experience.
We also rearranged the chat menu and added some quick buttons for convenience.
Both Gajim’s message search and conversation view received some important changes and fixes.

Sort of unrelated but does Gajim do voice/video calling? I looked at it once before and decided against it because it was missing a few features, but I like its interface a little better. If it'll do OMEMO, OpenPGP and voice/video calling it might be time to give it another look, 😊
