Three more facts about the song Clint Eastwood:

1. The drum beat is just the Rock 1 preset of the Suzuki Omnichord: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EDX6l9_58RA

2. Del tha Funkee Homosapien wrote the full lyrics in 30 minutes with the help of the book "How to Write a Hit Song": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qq2qSq6NpNY#t=373

3. The first version of the song didn't feature Del, but the British group Phi Life Cypher: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZM-DK3b5yuo

A lefty professor who likes trade unions sounds like a horrible person! /s

Exactly this. In terms of recording quality, my approach would look something like this:

1. Use a decent microphone.

2. Make sure you know how to handle the microphone.

3. Use closed-back headphones.

4. Record in a suitable environment/studio.

5. Consider adding a video track as well.

AI tools can't make okay-ish video recordings suddenly look great.

Yes, I opened the CSS file and there it was.

Think about screen readers.

You may want to look up the CCC‘s founding history.

Do you realize that a forum is social media?

Not sure if you are trolling.

What do you mean by censoring and why did you put transphobic in quotation marks?

You seem to be very sensitive to the idea of people watching out for each other. Maybe you should start watching out for others so you can get rid of your sensitivity.

It is really easy to protect everyone's privacy by not using advanced analytics platforms at all.

As one user said before, this absolutist way of thinking is tiring. Hamburger menus can absolutely be accessible and I would have liked to read how to do so. Here's my take:

  * It uses valid HTML and JS. (You could also make it work without JS as a fallback and I love progressive enhancement, but it's not a requirement specifically for accessibility. Actually, JS can contribute a lot towards accessibility.

  * The toggle button uses either `title`/`aria-label` or visual text in addition to the ≡ icon.

  * The focus states are clearly visible for keyboard navigation.

  * The correct ARIA attributes for the interactive elements are used.

  * Depending on the menu, think about a focus trap/loop.

Well, if we're talking about links in continuous text, they should definitely be underlined. Otherwise, they fail the WCAG success criterion 1.4.1.[1]

Brutalism in architecture is often very playful

not at all about the pure functionality absence of any aesthetic as

That's exactly the vibe I got from https://brutalistwebsites.com. Like many, I like both the aesthetics of brutalist architecture and brutalist websites – but that doesn't mean "form follows function" can be applied here. Many "brutalist" websites are very confusing, inaccessible, and/or impracticable. I suspect that minimalism or simplicism would be a better term for what the guidelines want to achieve.

Nevertheless, it is quite possible to combine playful aethetics with accessible technology, but that requires compromise and a lot of experience.

Shameless self-plug: I recently created my own classless CSS framework[1] and would appreciate feedback.

The fix in the article seems very strange to me. For something like a horizontal list of tags/labels, you would want to use flexbox. Using `display: inline-block` and the default text spacing creates an inconsistent layout.

They come to me because we were a family, and we still are.

They most definitely are not. They are in an employment relationship.

This is not directly related to Counter, but here is a nice explanation of how GoatCounter[1] has implemented session tracking: https://github.com/arp242/goatcounter/blob/master/docs/sessi...

At a previous job we used https://gitmoji.dev, which scrumoji is based on. At some point I started using the ladybug emoji for bugs because it's actually a bug while my colleagues kept using the caterpillar emoji because they preferred caterpillars. I thought it was a nice way to bring some individuality into our commit messages!

Those "toggle buttons without JavaScript" are one of my pet peeves. It's always the same thing:

1. Someone finds out that you can use `:checked`.

2. They add some JavaScript to "enhance" their idea.

3. It's still less accessible than a proper implementation.

This example is a CSS hack and not something you would actually want to use in a production environment. JavaScript is absolutely necessary if you are developing a custom interactive element. If `<details>` works for you, fine. If it doesn't, you might want to look up ARIA attributes.

It is made in China afaik.

What does "increases work productivity" even mean? Is this a problem with the original Firefox?

I like your taste – Input and IBM Plex (on which the iA Writer family is based) are my favorites as well. iA's old typeface Nitti is great as well.

There won't be _one_ remote event again, but multiple decentralized ones.

Even then it would not really be accessible. Alternative texts are just text blobs without any semantics and are read by screenreaders without any interruption.

I know some friends who would prefer to play this in their native language, so I can't wait for the i18n: https://github.com/wikispeedruns/wikipedia-speedruns/issues/...
