Frog is such a neat little Linux desktop app to extract text from images.
You can give it an image (file selector, drag & drop) or let it take a screenshot. And you can even paste an image from your clipboard!
This is great for adding alt text when posting an image or copying text (as text) from a screenshot for sharing (or adding to UI mockups, as I often do).
It also reads QR codes and supports several languages.

Good news for #DoctorWho fans, the launch of the Doctor Who archive on IPlayer is finally happening, according to doctorwho.tv/news-and-features…
This is also a historic event for the blind and visually impaired, as well as deaf and hard of hearing fans, because the article states: "Every episode on iPlayer from the back catalogue will be available with multiple accessibility options, including subtitles, audio description, and sign language."
Classic Who audio described to me is a dream come true, and I am sure it will be appreciated by many. Allons-y, Jelly Babies await!

“I am so thankful for the creation of NVDA. It has really changed my life. With NVDA, I do not have to worry about spending tons of extra money on third party software to use a computer. I can purchase any new computer that I want, and I can use it for the same cost as a sighted person” – Reina, United States.
We believe every blind & vision impaired person deserves the right to freely & easily access a computer. With our free screen reader, there is no extra financial burden on users.

Mohl by někdo doporučit lightweight alternativu k #Redmine? Která by uměla jednoduchý task tracker (v podstatě pouze jednoduchý todolist se statusem jednotlivých tasků a přiřazením k určitým lidem), ovšem důležitá je taky možnost propojení s emailem, aby šlo odpovídat na maily ze systému a ty by se pak objevily buď jako komentáře tasku či nové tasky.
Jde mi o to, aby systém dovedl používat BFU. Ten email proto, aby se do systému ani nemusel přihlásit a přesto ho mohl používat.
Redmine je fajn, ale na jednoduché projekty je krkolomný, většina featur je zbytečná a z hlediska BFU není zrovna přívětivý.
(vím že existuje Trello a spol, ale rád bych to instaloval na vlastní server, čili nejlépe nějaký opensource projekt)

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? 🙈)
A na lokale se to nedeje! Peklo!

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."
WOW.
Good time to switch to @thunderbird, folks!

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.

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.
Edit: fixed code formatting
