I’m here at an A.I. agent authoring event all by myself. “I’m not here to make friends” I think to myself.

Or am I…?

Accessibility is the process of making something usable and worthwhile

Dear TV, I don’t like spoilers, especially when I’m just about to start watching. Thanks.

Accessibility For Everyone by Laura Kalbag Read the book online for free.

My book, Accessibility For Everyone, is now free and online as a website.

The book was first published by A Book Apart in 2017 but it holds up! It covers web accessibility for designers, developers, content folks, and really everyone who works in tech.

An app is trying to force me into a "free trial" with no mechanism to opt out. I can't complete the desired journey as a result. I do pay for use of the app already. Does anyone know where to report this kind of thing?

Meaningful conversation? Nah

There is something about the empty sincerity of "You're absolutely right!" from LLM's that is really starting to bug me...

Everyone loves mansplaining until customer support actively seeks it out

* prompt with tests
* work in small feedback cycles with continuous testing, code review, refactoring and integration
* cleanly separate concerns in your code
