New accessibility techniques are developed all the time in HCI research, but they don’t often make it into the deployed applications that people use every day. What if you could add a missing feature to your assistive technology *without* waiting for the app to update? #CHI2026

I love this summary of "what to learn in a PhD." What Jack points out seems like a simple principle, but living through the intellectual uncertainty and chaos of being lost in your research for a long time—it's emotionally much harder learn to do it than it sounds.
Jack Morris@jxmnop

the most satisfying takeaway from a phd is that you can solve problems far beyond your capabilities if you're willing to throw yourself at them again and again, over a long period, while staying open to new ideas it's not really about being smart. just curious & persistent
