I'll be delivering my talk on digital accessibility and harm reduction tomorrow at 9 AM ET for @deque.com's axe-con. It's free to attend with an email login. This one is from the heart, and I'm simultaneously excited and terrified to share it with y'all. www.deque.com/axe-con/sess...

"This marketing-friendly idea that tech-as-a-service, coupled with a society restructured so that we all must be always present, always ready, always reactive, made our lives convenient." minutestomidnight.co.uk/blog/growing...

Any time I read about the struggles of crafting "agentic" AI I immediately envision a stadium full of semantic-minded accessibility engineers wordlessly screaming without end.

It's really sad to see Mozilla continue to fumble the ball, and I think we should start thinking of a future home for the MDN. blog.mozilla.org/en/mozilla/m...

AP finds that the Israeli military stored 13.6 petabytes of data on Microsoft servers, and usage of OpenAI/Microsoft tools was 200x higher than the week before Oct. 7. If there was any doubt of US tech companies and complicity in Israeli apartheid. apnews.com/article/isra...

When you hear “Make America Healthy Again” please remember who the Nazi’s targeted first. They wanted to make Germany healthy and “pure” The Aktion T4 program mass murdered people with disabilities. They tested the gas chambers on us. Please do not obey in advance. Speak out. Save lives.

One of the most important things about our public education system is at risk of being destroyed. 17 states are suing the federal government to bring down Section 504, which is arguably the single-most important law that paved the course of my entire life. www.frank.computer/blog/2025/02...
