Things the Kaiser Permanente website tells you about flu vaccines: - why to get one - how important they are - everything the CDC has to say about the flu - wash your hands What I want to know about them: - where my clinic’s injection site is and if it’s open today
Buying credit on @lyft is a dicey deal. The website says "Think of Lyft credit as cash in your account." and yet @asklyft says "It is important to note that a Lyft gift card is intended to purchase ride credits and does not hold any cash value." #baitandswitch

It may seem like this is a talk on the struggle of ditching the Redux library, whereas really @soyguijarro's talk is on the mother-of-all-developers'-struggles: NIH (not-invented-here) vs mounting external dependencies, a.k.a the nuance & tradeoffs of architectural decisions! 🙊

Part of job making things accessible or folks w/ disabilities but also about building for everyone else. That is difference between inclusive design & designing for accessibility. I cant do this alone. I ask for help. Same with you, ask for help… quickthoughts.jgregorymcverry.com/2019/10/05/par…

@arush: n the US there are either two pathways to #a11y you either decide to do it as a commitment for everyone or you are sued into it. Using the example of @dominos trying to sue their way out accessibility
@arush Giving talk to #IndieWeb community different. We usually talk to people about importance of HTML and how new controllers and aria labels aren't as good. You folks are already 10 steps a head of everyone with commitment to Plain Old Semantic HTML
@arush starts talk by telling story of open source dictation tool that works for screen readers. Day job building accessible websites from the ground up, and when they are not I do #a11y mediation. The answer is usually look at HTML, make it semantic #IndieWeb
@amirad "Everyone should be a creator and a maker on the Internet but as long as we realize we can not create for ourselves alone" #IndieWeb

Amira's second point, "leaving platforms can not be the only solution. We need to use them ad teach people to use them safely. Don't leave in hordes make it safer for next generations" #IndieWeb
@amirad "1 and 4 people note they are skilled in data privacy. not surprisingly most people who said they are skilled are men and women note they have the least skill with IoT devices #Indieweb

@amirad we need to teach anywhere in the world at any level, I am so deep into digital privacy...but what is the average person thinking #IndieWeb
