#Web #usability and #accessibility ...

This is from crimethinc.com, but I'm not trying to pick particularly on them. There are many, many, many sites just as bad or worse.

This is a screenshot from an article on their site today, rendered in Firefox (Linux).

See the hair-thin font? See the fact that it's light grey on a white background? There's virtually no contrast between the text and the background.

This is an accessibility nightmare for those with any sort of vision problem. Picking the colour out of the screenshot (I didn't look at the CSS), it appears the text is basically 45% grey. This is ludicrous.

If the font face had some heft, it might be still be half-assed readable with contrast this low.

But as is... If I were to take my contacts out, I wouldn't even be able to tell that this screenshot *had* any of the normal-sized text in it, much less be able to read any of it.

Web designers, I beg you: please consider more than the appearance of what you're creating when you're making design choices.

Remember that not everyone is a 20- or 30-something with near-perfect vision.

Remember that people have cataracts or other types of eye cloudiness which necessitate high-contrast text to be able to read, even if they scale the fonts up by a huge amount.

Remember that vision degrades naturally in people in many ways other than "just wear glasses" can fix.

A partial screenshot of a browser window open to a web page about tyranny. The text is in an extremely thin/fine font face, and is light grey on a white background. It is difficult to read unless you are a 20- or 30-something young person with excellent vision. It's almost completely lacking in visual contrast. It's an accessibility nightmare.

Dat feelz when the binary comes with its own bash completion generator ❤️ #hugo #bash #usability #ux

gohugo.io/commands/hugo_comple

gohugo.iohugo completion bash hugo completion bash Generate the autocompletion script for bash Synopsis Generate the autocompletion script for the bash shell. This script depends on the ‘bash-completion’ package. If it is not installed already, you can install it via your OS’s package manager. To load completions in your current shell session: source <(hugo completion bash) To load completions for every new session, execute once: Linux: hugo completion bash > /etc/bash_completion.d/hugo macOS: hugo completion bash > $(brew --prefix)/etc/bash_completion.d/hugo You will need to start a new shell for this setup to take effect.

In #Munich, the surface metro is called "S"-Bahn and the underground is the "U"-Bahn. There's this elevator on my way to work that has these three buttons: "O", "S" and "U". Which one would you pick to get to the "S"-trains when you're coming from the "U"-trains?

Over and over I've seen tourists with suitcases make the wrong choice in this elevator. It bothered me so much that I've printed a label to fix the #UX of this #usability disaster.

It's been there for 2 weeks now ✌️

Photo of 3 elevator buttons with huge letters on them: O, S and U. A white label reading "S-Bahn" has been affixed above the O button. O is the right choice for the surface (S-Bahn) trains. The huge S button takes the unsuspecting visitor to an intermediate floor instead, the actual term for which is only known to the people who build train stations I guess.

Давно помічав, що коли сиджу за кермом, то воно не є на моїй осі симетрії, а трохи праворуч. Та завжди пояснював це собі поганою поставою.

А ото сьогодні перевірив, та кермо просто фактично зсунуто відносно сидіння! Виявляється, так краще для ергономіки. А постава в порядку. 🤯
