@GassnerKendall re: "Exploring the challenges in creating an accessible sortable list", and the statement about NVDA not firing a keydown event for Enter/Space on a button --

This is not accurate, it's only true in virtual navigation mode, and JAWS has the same behavior.

@_aaronbnb Well yeah, in both cases -- unpaid volunteer moderators don't (and can't be expected to) have the time and focus to perform full secure audits of submitted software. So relying on that as the primary means through which apps can get into their store, it's a total non-starter

[James Edwards @siblingpastry]

@andreiacribeir "Why are you asking me that?"

[James Edwards @siblingpastry]

@SaraSoueidan @TPGinteractive I can't think what this might be, there's no apparent problems on this end. Hmm.

[James Edwards @siblingpastry]

@SaraSoueidan @TPGinteractive Okay this is too weird. What's the latest article you can see in the feed?

[James Edwards @siblingpastry]

@SaraSoueidan @TPGinteractive There've been a couple of recent articles:

https://t.co/UBTyN0DnIT

Are these showing the feed for you?

[James Edwards @siblingpastry]

@SaraSoueidan @TPGinteractive Okay well I'll try to remember and let you know the next time something's published, then you can check if it's there. If not, well some internal escalation may be necessary.

@CBoTheEggman Conservative politician in "turns out to be a massive hypocrite" shocker.

I wish news like this wouldn't dwell on age differences though, that really is irrelevant, the point is the abuse of power.

@danidonovan I randomly left a plastic bag on my living room floor, and now it's my cat's favorite toy :-)

[James Edwards @siblingpastry]

@MetalHaze He lost me at "alright guys".

[James Edwards @siblingpastry]

@SaraSoueidan @TPGinteractive The longer one should redirect to the first one, are you not able to subscribe directly to that?

[James Edwards @siblingpastry]

@SaraSoueidan @TPGinteractive This one should work: https://t.co/naP17pZ3ez

What URL did you have?

[James Edwards @siblingpastry]

@SaraSoueidan Yeah maybe you've already done it, and you're one of the clones.

[James Edwards @siblingpastry]

@SaraSoueidan Careful, you don't want to trigger an Asimov Cascade

@_aaronbnb Two people with exactly the same impairment might experience significantly different disabling effects. You can't compare those things in any non-arbitrary way without first experience the other person's consciousness (which is impossible and logically contradictory).

[James Edwards @siblingpastry]

@_aaronbnb I needed to think about this for a while, and I've concluded that I don't accept the distinction. Or more precisely, it's impossible to objectively make that distinction on a case-by-case basis, because the distinction is arbitrary and subjective.

[James Edwards @siblingpastry]

@pauljadam Only the other day I made myself write "Since VoiceOver can't be directly detected..." to avoid the moral crisis of describing how it can. Just gonna try and forget that I know.
