@nolan Just reading your post on the <time> element. I agree with your general assertion, but I'm curious how you're thinking a screen reader might handle the element if it were exposed in the acc tree?

@JonathanMosen A little while ago, I think you posted about your home automation setup. If that's right, could you remind me which platform/API you're using?

Tom Stoppard #RIP
The improbability of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead and the way scenes from Hamlet are woven into the narrative, captivated me the first time I read it, and made me a Stoppard fan for life.
Delighted to learn that my Accessibility and the Agentic Web post was included in the first edition of a new newsletter for the design curious, thoughtfully curated by Siddharth Jha:

I'm happy to share that I've written a chapter for a book called Digital Accessibility Ethics: Disability Inclusion in All Things Tech, to be published on 26 March 2026:

Looks like the DoJ is not going to issue the expected rulings on the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) after all:

Under the current US administration, this is almost like a surprise, only not so much...
COVID booster sorted 💉💪
Patricia Routledge is one of the actors I most admire. A Woman of No Importance and the later Alan Bennet Talking Heads monologue A Lady of Letters, were among my many inspirations as I studied performing arts.
The (unconnected Ladies of Letters on Radio 4 with Prunella Scales still makes me chortle, and her portrayal of Hyacinth Bucket (pronounced "Bouquet") was, of course, just sublime.
Sometimes the simple things are the best. Tonight's dinner was gnocchi filled with spinach and mozzarella baked in a quick and dirty tomato sauce with basil and oregano, and some fat little chorizo sausages on the side. 😋
Getting ready to host the last talk of @inclusivedesign24 and the first talk feel like a very long time ago!

If anyone using iOS 2026 with VoiceOver has discovered how to use the call screening feature, I'd be glad of any tips.
I mean in terms of how to accept/refuse screened calls, not how to turn it on. Thanks 🙏
Huge thanks to @foo__ for helping me with a little CSS magic that means I can now indicate when posts on my blog have been updated 🥳
If anyone with knowledge of Sass has time, I could use some styling help with a minor change to my website that doesn't look quite right.
Change adds an "Edited" notation to posts that have been updated, but the text looks weird (or so I'm told).
Website uses Eleventy with Nunjucks templating, in case that's useful info.
Happy to pay for time.
Looking for RSS feed recommendations. Topics of interest include tech (generally), web, accessibility, web standards, AI, and food/cooking. Thanks 😊

When the sound of thunder, and the rain on the roof above my head, means I can no longer hear my screen reader... BRB.
Earlier this year, someone bought me some gorgeous bath bombs from Lush, and having decided to by myself some more, I've discovered that in January they renamed three of their bath bombs to "Diversity", "Equity", and "Inclusion", in protest against Trump's Executive Order.

The UK will test its emergency alerts system at around 3PM on Sunday 7 September.
If you have a phone that you need to keep hidden to protect yourself, here's how to opt out of the emergency alerts:

Is it me, or is DuckDuckGo increasingly returning nothing but YouTube/Tick Tocks in its search results these days?
