Just opened Miro for the first time in a little while to find that it won't let me just draw a diagram, it wants to me to hang out with its little chatbot friend. So I ask it to draw three concentric circles.

I made an app! What Can't I Press helps you discover what keyboard shortcuts are already claimed by running apps, with a focus on screen readers. This helps prevent you from overriding something someone might rely on to get what they want or need. #a11y github.com/ericwbailey/...

Uber Eats and DoorDash hid tip buttons and set default tips below 10%. As a result, tips for delivery workers fell 79%. In January, we made these corporations change their apps — and in the past six months, we've put $104 million back in delivery workers' pockets. This is only the beginning.

I can't tell you how correct Ed Zitron is about Apple being well positioned to eat. The more chaotic and agentic and scammy it gets out there, the better their gated community looks. Every other tech company capexing their way to the center of the earth, sunk in debt. Apple on a mountain of cash.

How could the DNC be millions of dollars in debt?!? This makes no sense, they've sent so many annoying text messages

36 years after the ADA, disabled people live in a eugenicist hellscape run by monsters trying to preferentially kill us --- and succeeding. My list of the shit the Trump Regime has done since 1/20/25 is public. No Patreon login required; please share it. www.patreon.com/mattbc/posts...

Saw The Odyssey last night and realized there’s another reason the right’s rage furbys are foaming at their mouths over the film. It is deeply antiwar, making an argument that builds incident by incident. Nolan’s sin: making explicit the vicious destructiveness of “heroic” ambition and violence.

Must feel so good for text after you hit ctrl-x, floating in liminal space, before ctrl-v thrusts it back onto the desolate page

A dark money campaign is offering influencers $1,500 per post to attack Abdul El-Sayed and support Haley Stevens. Same exact dollar figure that was paid to attack @katmabu.bsky.social (Nobody ever found out who was paying for that campaign.) Gross, lazy and above all cynical shit.

“I believe disability parking spots should only be for people with a certain level of disability where they require parking in such a place.” How do people think these placards are acquired??? 🤔
