When considering what keyboard shortcuts to support in your application, don’t stress about JAWS/NVDA. They have pass-through commands (a key combo that tells the SR to ignore the next key/combo).
• NVDA F2
• JAWS 3
• Narrator 3
Stress about other languages instead.

“Accessibility had not disappeared [from CES], but it was segregated into its own corner with a dedicated ‘Accessibility Stage’.”

It’s weird that my way of coping with state-sponsored murder of its own citizen is to file PRs on developer sites stuck hosting explainers for shitty specs.

Thrilled to see more tests for real-world `aria-label` exposure:

But ARIA outlines what roles disallow `aria-label` (§5.2.8.3):

I am confounded there are still people running (technical, standards) surveys on MechaHitler’s CSAM-generating platform and presenting those results as if I give a shit what frameworks horrible people use or what CSS problems they have or which elements confuse them.
Maybe I’m an outlier.

I have a lot of credit cards ... too many credit cards. It is part of a medium-term strategy but I am planning to collapse them in, this year. One of them offers a $10 per month doordash credit on retail and I discovered that it works on sushi from Kroger. If you pair that with one of their regular "50% off $25 " deals, you can get $40 worth of mediocre sushi for $10.
It is truly mediocre sushi, but it's also only $10.
