"Inclusive design is a process, accessibility is an outcome" from @feather on @uxpodcast It's something I'm trying to teach our company. Current thinking is to fix our current accessibility problems. However, they'll keep coming back if we don't design inclusively from the start

@harrybr Wow, 5 cups a day. How much time do you leave between coffees? Good luck with cutting down 🤞

In solidarity with @GaryLineker I will also not be appearing on tonight's #MatchOfTheDay

@A11yLondon Not necessarily a qualification but the @dequesystems university courses are an excellent place to start learning

Accessibility qualifications and certificates. Which do you recommend for beginners?

Did you miss a session during #AbilitySummit? Well, the good news is that they are now available on demand! I'm definitely catching up on "#Inclusive Development: Empower Every #Developer and Their Teams to Achieve More" this weekend. abilitysummit.event.microsoft.com

I regularly review table designs like this where excessive gaps between each column make the table really hard to scan. This is even worse for people using some screen magnification.

@AT_Fresh_Dev Really looking forward to this! Such an interesting topic

I’ve signed up to Mastadon here : @atikusdesign" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">mas.to/@atikusdesign Let me know your handle and I’ll follow you on there. Also, if you have some #a11y recommendations for me to follow on there they’d be greatly appreciated

@andybudd Need to update to Ventura ;-)

My desk for the week. An ironing board in an AirBnB.

@andybudd Obviously that whole thing showed just how awful that man is. But the thing I can’t understand from that specific tweet is “or, in some cases, true, but not meaningful.” What on earth does that mean?!

You’ve got to love the “It wasn’t my fault. I was only behaving like a 🔧 because of faulty information” defence.

@andybudd Next they'll be telling people not to care about your customer because they end up leaving as well

@AtiKuSDesign I know!

Just listened to a founder claim that there was little point focussing on your team as the average tenure for a manager in tech was 15 months. Couldn’t help but wonder if that could be the cause rather than the way to deal with it.

Pay women. Support women. Promote women. Cite women. Miss me with the 'empower her' nonsense. #IWD2023 #InternationalWomensDay

@ettiebk Thank you

@AtiKuSDesign Hey Michael, it went out yesterday so here's the link 😊 ⬇️ fightingtalk.substack.com/p/that-deleted…

An absolute chaos storm erupted on Twitter the other day. 🔥 All because AP Style Book told writers not to use dehumanising 'the' words for people... like 'the French.' 👇 In my next newsletter, I explain... ⭐ how #InclusiveLanguage guidance went wrong here,

Really looking forward to Axe-con next week! deque.com/axe-con/ What talk are you most looking forward to?

You're showing your inaccessibility if you have an "accessibility" overlay on your website. Learn more by visiting the Overlay Fact Sheet website: overlayfactsheet.com Thank you, @karlgroves, for giving me this amazing shirt last year at CSUN. #Accessibility #Overlays #a11y

@ettiebk I signed up today but I didn't get any emails 😔
