🎧 Listening (at 1.5x speed … 😅) to a wonderful conversation of two of my favourite people: @kevinpowell.co navigating the world of web #accessibility with @sarasoueidan.com 👏 #webdev #a11y

The fascists are terrified of me (us) because bodily autonomy is just so fucking cool. It's badass to go out there & change your gender, be proud of it, and tell everyone it's great. You can do it too!
Crossing borders: also fucking cool.
Their rules are made up, and all they have. Be crimes.
I love it!
📢 New video and a big announcement!

Only thing left to do manually is hitting the export button and combine them into one PDF. Was great timing of that YouTube video „back then“ when I was supposed to do all that by hand :)
It’s incredible, we had a slide deck built in figma with upwards of 200 slides for a day long workshop and it was kind of a patchwork mess. Using this I built something that finds all slides, spaced them out evenly by chapters and sections, renamed them, marked them for export and selected them.
Perfect timing, now that @penpot.app will introduced design tokens 😍
Not sure, if that video is good, but a quick search for n8n, MCP, and AirTable: youtu.be/DrHP2fOLY2s?...
Depending on what you do. But with MCP, you basically have one agent per app instead of per tool. So you would need one agent for „everything airtable“ (e.g. github.com/domdomegg/ai...)
And the agent then figures out what tool to use and what data to give to the tool on its own.
Woah that looks like a job for MCP. Should be able to cut the complexity by 90 %

Doch.
> u verletzt oder missachtet keinen.
Korrekt, das ist genau der Plan.
> treibt […] undeutsche Wortbegriffe
„Wortbegriffe“ also? Da hängt wer einige Jahrzehnte mit der Entwicklung der Sprache hinterher und will anderen Menschen Sprache vorschreiben?
„Neu denken“ ist hier nicht wirklich an der Tagesordnung. Wer „geistig minderbemittelt“ ernsthaft so hinausposaunt und sich gegen das Gendern wehrt, weil es „irrsinnig“ klingt, und dann „und“ abkürzen muss, sollte nicht darüber entscheiden, was andere Menschen ein- oder ausschließt.

Nice!

Who are great #accessibility speakers with lived experience you can recommend?
The organisers of a digital/tech/society conference have asked me for recommendations. It takes place in Germany in March.
I have a great short list, but it’s too short.
Any recommendations are highly welcomed!
Danke!
Known functionality not working as expected (I.e. as outside of the terminal). Keyboard shortcuts for moving words or sentences, mouse clicks, copy + paste actions, etc.
Makes it hard to stay in the terminal.
