Pretending to be credulous for a moment - why would the shutdown impact a (supposedly) private venture? Did someone get confused and furlough the supposed T Phone employees too? Do they have USPS folks doing this off the side of their desks?

Accessibility is a human right, cruelty a human wrong. Once more for the folks in the back. Calibri is easier than Times New Roman for folks with certain visual disabilities to read. That’s why the Biden Administration chose Calibri for their digital communications: to include more people and make life just a wee bit easier for the disabled. And who in their right mind could object to that? You know who, and they’re not in their right mind—unless you’re talking far-right.

Once more for the folks in the back: accessibility is a human right. Your web standards godfather shares thoughts on a small atrocity.

The devastation I feel about this attack on science in particular is hard to cope with. It’s like watching my dad die all over again. I would do anything to spare someone a death via pancreatic cancer.

All the concerns that make you a boring developer I was thinking this morning about how once you understand that your technology choices have security, performance, and accessibility considerations you become a much more boring developer.…

A very good list of concerns a “boring” (we prefer experienced) developer might have. Very useful for people who aren’t developers to read too.

It has been wild to see what were always the two most paranoid pro-Second Amendment scenarios—the government snatching people away and sending occupying armies into communities—literally happen this year, to the delight of conservatives

This is profoundly bad. The data generated by NASA feeds research in many, MANY disciplines. I, for instance, am a historian, and my dissertation (now book project) uses satellite imagery as a major source for exploring the historical relationship between people and the environment.

He has kept among us in times of peace Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures. He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power.

There are many, many aspects of the current administration that fill me with white hot rage, but as a child of two parents fighting cancer, everything they’ve done to interfere with progress in the fight against cancer is particularly personal for me.
