Unexpected audio can be quite shocking for users. It doesn't really matter if the music is a soft ambient melody. It also doesn't matter if it's a harsh explosive sound. It can cause issues for the user. For folks who have a sound sensitivity, not being able to control sounds causes problems. #a11y

I'm still on the DNC's mailing list some how. I haven't considered myself a Dem for a long time, but usually support them. Their inability to just hold their position on cloture just proves that they don't care either. My donating money won't help if they don't hold the ground.

Color is important. Color allows us to discern whether our fruit is ripe. We use color to control traffic. We spend time in school teaching kids their colors. We ask them to "Identify the red one." But not all of us see color the same way, and some can't see it at all.

We have four main principles in accessibility: Perceivable, Operable, Understandable, and Robust (Accidentally wrote robot butts first!). The P.O.U.R. principles guide us in how we classify, identify, and fix issues.

It's not the 80's. We don't live in a world where "the fold" exists any longer. We're not locked to a 4:3 viewing experience. Our movies are most commonly 16:9 ratio. Even phones and TVs.
