I’m an accessibility wonk and copy editor for TPGi. My useless skill is that I can spot Helvetica from a hundred meters.

@8BitDo No support for macOS, though? 😢

@dr_kkjetelina Ah, I gotcha—that all sounds quite reasonable! Carry on!

@kinesisergo (What I’m trying to politely convey is that I’ve been a satisfied Kinesis user for about 25 years. Buuut there’s about a 90% chance that my next keyboard will be a Glove80 because they offer a contoured, programmable keyboard that includes physical function keys and you don’t.)

BREAKING: New research by @hayleycbbrown shows unions are a powerful force for workers with disabilities.

But union coverage has declined for all workers since 2009. We need to reverse this trend! #Disability 🧵 (1/5)

Here’s the thing folks. I’ve been coding 32 years. When something like this happens it’s an organizational failure. Yes, some human wrote a bad line. Someone can “git blame” and point to a human and it’s awful. But it’s the testing, the Cl/CD, the A/B testing, the metered rollouts, an oh shit button to roll it back, the code coverage, the static analysis tools, the code reviews, the organizational health, and on and on. It’s always one line of code but it’s NEVER one person. Implying inclusion policies caused a bug is simplistic, reductive, and racist. Engineering is a team sport. Inclusion makes for good teams. Good engineering practices makes for good software. Engineering practices failed to find a bug multiple times, regardless of the seniority of the human who checked that code in. Solving the larger system thinking SDLC matters more than the null pointer check. This isn’t a “git gud C++ is hard” issue and it damn well isn’t an DEI one.

@kinesisergo It seems a bit misleading to say that the Form offers “perfect typing form” when even your own website confirms that the Form doesn’t help with forearm pronation?

I’m not trying to say that the Form isn’t a step up from a standard keyboard—but “perfect” isn’t what comes to mind.
