Ok. So my settings are based on the languages I speak: 1. en-GB 2. nl 3. fr-FR 4. fr 5. de-DE 6. de 7. en-US 8. en Chrome now translates that to the following order of locale preferences: en-GB : 1 en : 0.9 nl : 0.8 fr-FR : 0.7 fr : 0.6 de-DE : 0.5 de : 0.4 en-US : 0.3

Chrome language settings

1. English (United Kingdom)
2. Dutch: This language is used when translating pages
3. French (France)
4. French
5. German (Germany)
6. German
7. English (United States)

Then I came up with this big brain variant... www.uiua.org/pad?src=0_14...

A solution to leap years in the programming language uiua. Link in post hosts an interactive version.

Recently I found this new programming language called uiua (www.uiua.org) and attempted to implement a solution to leap years: uiua.org/pad?src=0_14... I cried a bit. But spent the entire night "learning" it and I think it's... I guess fun??

As for the bars: you don't need to change the colour. You "just" need to add a border to them that has contrast. Here are 2 good options (first and last) and one bad option (middle). As long as the space is at least 4px, it should be visible to most users. The middle one is only 1 px, so invisble

Generally adding a pattern or changing the shape will work, if words cannot be added. Here is an example. I used: - border radius 1px with width/height: 7px - border radius 50% with width/height: 8px (standard) - border radius 50% with border 2px solid white, bg transparent Maybe this works?

The contrast on the sentiment also makes that invisible for "?" sentiment, but at least there are percentages in the other boxes.

State of CSS page with simulated Achromatopsia filter showing it for people who see no colour. It completely lacks distinction between various elements, making this inaccessible to those who are colourblind or see less contrast.
