Fair question, there's a lot to wade through. I put any REALLY key articles just after the Vispero ones (contractually obliged to put them at the top). This week, that's Craig Abbott's article (a cracker IMO). But I'll start using an indicator of some sort for other key articles, like an asterisk.

What keeps me blogging is realising not every post has to be about web tech or accessibility. I was greatly encouraged to hear that an accessibility expert I admire liked the recipes I post. Just write. You never know.

New piece out with @jonathanzong.com where we look at how accessible infrastructure has been continually coopted by technological advancements, and both people with disabilities and everyone else now must compete for use of these spaces.

As agentic AI rapidly transforms internet infrastructure, how do we ensure disabled people's needs are not displaced? In a new article by me and @frank.computer, we argue that accessibility must not be treated as an incidental benefit of rapid AI expansion. Read below:

Think on this. If you ask ChatGPT "How can I make this div accessible?", it will suggest pretty good ARIA. What it won't do is question the basic premise, ie, "Why are you using a div when a semantic element is available?" To me, that sums up what devs aren't being taught. The basics are ignored.

Prediction: it's going to get worse before it gets better, but it will get better.

Even with the same tools. There's no such thing as restating the obvious, because the obvious isn't obvious to someone who hasn't encountered it before. Be patient, be kind, be informative, always.

They SHOULD be called out. It's unprofessional, unhelpful, and demeaning. Who the hell knows Success Criteria by heart anyway? Only wankers.
