Why are Dutch kids the world’s happiest? A teenager weighs in
Freedom for kids to move through the world on their own may be the key to the Netherlands’ top spot in childhood happiness.

Part of my frustration with this 1.2.5 discussion (no gaps means auto-pass a lack of AD) was the earlier assertion that videos always have gaps (ha ha, no:

1.2.3 / 1.2.5 Audio description - No pause · Issue #4460 · w3c/wcag
If a video has no pause in dialogue to provide audio descriptions, is the video considered to meet SC 1.2.3 / 1.2.5 Audio description? Even if the content author want to provide audio descriptions ...

Effects of thrust, tip-speed ratio, and time variations on wind-turbine wakes at high Reynolds numbers
The evolution of rotor wakes is an important problem for a wide range of wind-energy and aerodynamic applications, and is of particular relevance to dynamic wake control strategies for wind farms. This study aims to clarify the influence of turbine thrust and tip-speed ratio on tip-vortex breakdown and the evolution of the near wake. Scaling arguments show that these parameters contribute to the wake dynamics in distinct ways, and that neither thrust nor tip-speed ratio are alone sufficient to …

Taking off his hat as the AGWG chair to discuss iterating in WCAG2.
Related to the WCAG3 discussion (with notes from meeting yesterday):

The Ferraris starts and then just fall apart #AustrianGP

Bortoleto 🙏🙏🙏 #AustrianGP

I better start praying every time the Alpine leaves the pit #SpainGP

Yesterday I saw the #F1 movie, I thought it was pretty fun. Certainly not the best racing movie you will ever see, but still pretty fun, and how they edited the real footage was really good
