  • One of the terrible effects of skewed populations -- when a minority equals less than 15% of a population -- is tokenism.
    André PolykanineM André Polykanine

    @cyberlyra Although this seems logical, we can't deny there are groups of people who will never achieve such numbers as 30%. there won't be 30% of trans people (just statistically and by anatomy), there won't be 30% of blind people (I'm blind, and I'd never ever wanted to have a population with 30% of blind people — something would have been deeply wrong with such population). And there is no viable solution. Again, to quote an example closest to me, there is a German town called Marburg, where there is a huge school, library and edition for the blind. Of course there awareness is super-high, like every cashier at every shop knows how to help a blind person if he/she is struggling with something. But de facto this is ghettoization which is bad in lots of ways.

  • I love being able to telepathically communicate with my cat.

    @catsalad If it's true, then you have the greatest luck, cats talk to us very seldom unfortunately.

  • This week I learned, from a blind acquaintance here, that when we write in ALL CAPS in alt text, their screenreader* reads it all out, *one letter at a time*.

    @zersiax @deborahh I'm quiet here, because I use JAWS and I've seen it before maybe, but my hunch is that it depends on the TTS. I boosted though because I feel all caps is like yelling, also it adds burden for Braille display users.

  • I can really see why developers like Claude and that Open-Claude thing has taken off honestly.

    @zersiax @Tamasg Sorry to jump in, but I'd say it's far, far cheaper.

    @Tamasg For code — no doubts. I'm paying for #Claude max and I'm super satisfied with it. Now playing with this spec-kit thing: https://github.com/github/spec-kit.
