Peter Goes @petergoes.nl · 18/05/2026... Denial, anger and depression battle each other constantly. Funny enough I don't experience bargaining so much, mostly because I am to stubborn to use it on the sheer principle that I do _not_ want to use it. For the sake of the future of my children... 120

Peter Goes @petergoes.nl · 17/05/2026To distract myself from all the AI shenanigans at my developer day job, I started a new hobby. Learn electronics by building synthesizer components. Very early in the process, but oh my this is SO MUCH FUN!! 120
Peter Goes @petergoes.nl · 13/03/2026Yeah, agreed. I did not say the whole experience was enjoyable indeed... 🤔 000
Peter Goes @petergoes.nl · 13/03/2026Ow my... I tried that a couple of times. Ended up listening to an audiobook version... 110

I do really really well with repeating booked days; weekly days focussed on specific companies. I don not have that right now, and that's not working well for my mental state.

Peter Goes @petergoes.nl · 15/09/2025I'm sorry, but I think you credited the wrong Peter Goes in your post. I am not an illustrator 🙂 010
Peter Goes @petergoes.nl · 14/09/2025How was your migration experience? Did you have dns through netlify? 100
Peter Goes @petergoes.nl · 02/09/2025I understand. My initial assumption was, thus, not correct. I still would prefer a dedicated dev version (closer to normal) over a beta / nightly 🙂 220
Peter Goes @petergoes.nl · 02/09/2025I am not sure what the difference is, but I assumed that the dev version is equal to the normal version but with better dev tools. Beta or nightly have a different feature set. So I'd like to develop with the latest 'public' version to experience what users would experience. 130
Peter Goes @petergoes.nl · 02/09/2025It gives me a dedicated dev browser not being polluted by normal browsing habits / junk. A clear separation between dev extensions vs browsing extensions. Would hate to see it discontinued if that is on the table 110
Peter Goes @petergoes.nl · 13/08/2025Closing thoughts: I think you are technically right, but that does not help me as a willing developer. It makes me less certain. 100
Peter Goes @petergoes.nl · 13/08/2025Maybe that is my main point. I find it so hard getting some guidance, that statements like "components can not be wcag ever" (paraphrasing here), feels like another hurtle where I thought I found some hand holds. 100
Peter Goes @petergoes.nl · 13/08/2025...standard, like the motor. But you are right that that usually is it's own standard. (Thinking out loud here) Since we don't have multiple standards, falling back to wcag feels like a proper way of doing things. It gives some form of direction. Which I find more helpful than nothing at all. 100
Peter Goes @petergoes.nl · 13/08/2025... What so ever, that component does not violate any SC's. Except for the whole pages rule, it does not violate any other rule. Therefore it should be confirming to wcag. About the washing machine, the argument was more for the manufacturing company. Individual components can confirm to a... 100
Peter Goes @petergoes.nl · 13/08/2025... Contains any media content, all SC's related to time based media do not apply, right? So the concept of some SC's not applying to a webpage can be expanded to components. Say I have a paragraph component with default styles giving it enough contrast and size, and no configuration... 100
Peter Goes @petergoes.nl · 13/08/2025Yes, I see your line of reasoning. And I am well aware of my little experience with the concept of standards as opposed to yours, so I don't want to come across as dismissive. I would like to counter, though, that conformation with wcag is to not violate a SC, right? So if my site does not... 100
Peter Goes @petergoes.nl · 13/08/2025However, it does not mean that I, as the developer of the page/site, should not test my product as a whole, by only using wcag conforming components. I still have the ultimate responsibility of delivering an accessible product. 100
Peter Goes @petergoes.nl · 13/08/2025...that does not. And as a well-meaning developer, it's on me to read the manual and implement it right. Which would be easier because a well-meaning component developer that is advertising wcag conformance, is likely to have proper documentation on how to implement it's component properly. 100
Peter Goes @petergoes.nl · 13/08/2025...not those of 1927. So the whole house does not confirm, but that reconstructed wall certainly does. Allowing a component to conform to wcag (again, if properly implemented), will "Help well-meaning developers get it right". I'd rather choose a component that advertised as conforming over one... 100
Peter Goes @petergoes.nl · 13/08/2025...it will break. That does not mean that the washing machine is not build according to some standard and have passed some tests. The house I live in is almost 100 years old. When we bought it, we did some reconstruction on it. Those reconstructions were performed to the standards of 2016... 100
Peter Goes @petergoes.nl · 13/08/2025I think components should be able to claim that they, if implemented properly, conform to wcag. IMHO the conformance requirement is outdated in respect to how modern front ends are constructed. If I buy a washing machine, throw away the manual and load it beyond the specified weight... 100
