@atomset @FrankHuether @TruninDenis Noted 😊(HT: @NathanClouseAX). We are aware of and will be working on it.

@NWSSeattle Going for 2” in Port Angeles now, still going strong.

@shanselman Can be worse.

For any late-night west coasters, or friends in other time zones, I’ll be taking about debugging accessibility at @id24conf in 30min!

My kids have lost all access to their online school resources, their login doesn't work anymore, anywhere. Is there an outage @LakeWashSchools?

[Gianugo Rabellino 🇺🇦 @gianugo]

+1. @codeability's beautiful explanation of ADHD is as good as it gets and perfectly describes the struggle - I felt like being in front of a mirror. We need more attention to cognition in a11y.

[Sarah • @[email protected] @codingchaos]

Cosigned. It's a privilege to know both @codeability and @ShellELittle, and I benefit immensely from their work

[Sarah • @[email protected] @codingchaos]

New writing thing! Some tips for debugging semantic issues with complex interactive components.

I made a handy page with links to ALL THE COMBOBOX THINGS (at least all the ones I've made), including both 24a11y articles, on my blog: https://t.co/nFOKdlCx1y

If you're not following @codingchaos, you're missing out. Big time.

I've been wanting to write about select/combobox patterns for a while, and finally did!

This is the first of a 2-parter on why custom <select>s are so difficult, and what to do about it. Part 2 is coming soon (tomorrow) 🙂

My coworker and partner in crime, Ryan Shugart, wrote an article about what it's like to be a blind sysadmin and how he ended up at Microsoft: https://t.co/TNI6Yy7spo

@AlaskaAir AS1768 to SFO

[Gianugo Rabellino 🇺🇦 @gianugo]

On the tarmac at SEA for almost two hours now. APU broken, a light that needed replacing, then ground crew went AWOL, then the plane plug (?!) had been inadvertently disconnected. Doors opened and closed several times now. 8th time the charm @AlaskaAir?

[Gianugo Rabellino 🇺🇦 @gianugo]

Nope. Flight deck says that I couldn't quite get needs to be aligned now. Planets, I guess... #joyoftravel

@karlgroves @joostvanderborg @thebillygregory Glad it wasn't only me!

[Sarah • @[email protected] @codingchaos]

The folks at #a11yTOconf made the mistake of letting me start talking about tooltips, and @scottohara was kind enough to record it :)

here it is: https://t.co/hhSBoh3xOT (captions included)

A post about play/pause buttons, but more about ARIA states and accessible name changes:

Calling Seattle accessibility people! Come hang out on October 2nd and learn about Accessibility Insights directly from the awesome people who work on it!

@where2start If you're using Powerpoint, try the accessibility checker. And/or come find me or @codingchaos after 11:15 and we'd be happy to take a look!

[Gianugo Rabellino 🇺🇦 @gianugo]

Great day at #CPL2019 - lots of fabulous feedback on my #a11y keynote. Louisville (the Austin of KY) is fantastic: just need to work on how to pronounce it before I can come back. @sarahnovotny, know that thanks to @mrdowden I may have provisionally changed my stance on bourbon.

[Sarah • @[email protected] @codingchaos]

Tooltips: a study in why something so basic is also somehow so difficult.

(I'm trying out this whole blog thing, I hope it goes well!)
