AFixt · Color Contrast and Readability: The Cornerstones of Accessible Design - AFixtIn the world of digital accessibility, few topics are as fundamental—or as overlooked—as color contrast and readability. While they might seem like minor considerations in the grand scheme of website design or app development, they are critical elements that determine whether your content is accessible to all users, including those with visual impairments. Let’s dive […]

Another thing I'm wondering about is the manual creation of hashtags. If we had an automatic classification of posts based on its text, wouldn't it make the life of the person creating a post and the readability easier?
#hashtags #SocialMedia #Automation #readability #creativity
P. S. I think it took me almost the same time to share the main thought of this post as the time I needed to think about what hashtags to use.

Short-circuit OR #operator
#fsharp (you can see the abstract problem and solve it pragmatically) vs #python (you can't even see the abstract problem)
F# allows the creation of #custom #inline operators, providing more #flexibility in how logical expressions are written and potentially enhancing code #readability and #expressiveness.
Python relies on its standard logical operators, such as or, for similar functionality. This ensures #consistency and #simplicity.

Remember, the point here (there is a point to all this, yes!) is to improve my accessibility with a washer and dryer interface, not throw me into an endless loop of quirkly language-oriented obsessions!

The story doesn't end here, of course.
Because unlike #typesetters and other #designers who have a plethora of typefaces and sizes to choose from--including the choice to make them thin and such low-contrast as to be unreadable--Braille comes in just two sizes, and the bigger is only really used for labels on signage.
Here's an overview of the #specifications:

Czy jest jakieś proste narzędzie online do analizy obrazka typu tekst w kolorze A na apli w kolorze B pod kątem #readability, dostępności etc.? W sensie sprawdzenia czy projekt, mimo walorów estetycznych, nie będzie sprawiał trudności osobom z problemami z widzeniem/kolorami?

@mwichary most remotes are simply unreadable
Here's a basic verification test for #code / #design #readability.
Can you understand the code a few days or weeks later (once it's no longer fresh in your mind) when under the influence of a moderate dose of your favorite psychotropic agent?
If the answer is no, that's some bad news for your code/design as it is.
Suggesting the use of "dark mode images" in #Mozilla #Firefox's #readability #reading mode feature, so that you don't get blinded by bright images as much while scrolling through an article at night. Surely I can't be the only one who would like this #accessibility tweak? https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1852366
