After my keynote at @Gartner_Incâs conference an attendee told me theyâre inspired to make their websites and apps more accessible to disabled people. My favorite kind of inspiration! #GartnerHR
ALT Iâm smiling and wearing a shirt with text that says, âDigital equality is my jam.â Behind me, across the hotel lobby, a large Gartner sign with a stylized coastline reads, âExpand your horizons.â

Elon Musk says Twitter will soon only offer dark mode because itâs âbetter in every wayâ trib.al/pbM9pDr
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Elon has since said that they will keep light mode, but make dark mode the default.

Um, hey @britishmuseum, it's come to my attention that your exhibit "China's hidden century" uses my translations of Qiu Jin's poetry, but you never contacted me for permission. Please note this is a copyright infringement! How are you going to fix this?? #NameTheTranslator

There is a reality now that someone could buy a blue checkmark and then they could suddenly say they are a government agency telling you evacuate, for instance. So, even a blue checkmark might not mean what it used to mean. You might want to take other steps to confirm the author

I can no longer tell at a glance if a person is who they say they are or if they are representing a credible news source.
This sucks. The ONE THING Twitter does better than anyone else is breaking news?
Why couldnât they have just made paid accounts a different color?

You may be hearing the argument that before the rise of modern commercial infant formula, babies all ate breastmilk and everything was great. As a historian of infant feeding, let me tell you why thatâs not true.

Slowly it's dawning on me that low-vision artists, and those losing their sight, are potentially some of our strongest allies & catalysts for tactile graphics. They already get high-contrast, scaling up, avoiding visual clutter.

it looks like a lovely day to REMIND YOU HEATHENS TO STOP "RESCUING" BABY ANIMALS. THEIR MOMS ARE MOST LIKELY NEARBY SO JUST MIND YOUR BUSINESS.
FAWNS, DROP EM'.
