Tucson got hit very hard with these and we already had Blues. Apx 80% of US overdoses are from pressed Fentanyl which is killing more people than any drug in US history. Here they're called Skittles, appealing to younger folks and they are cheap. Stay aware, especially Halloween!

Are other Web professionals finding a bit of a shift back to the open web model? I am. And it's making me all tingly! 🤗
Mozilla has just released a truly excellent paper on browser competition labelled “Five Walled Gardens” containing key details on how browsers competition is undermined by Apple, Google, Microsoft and others.
🧵Let's dig in

For folks following #prescribedharm my benzo taper is with a doctor of nurse practice. why a 38 year high dose benzo patient from Mother's Little Helper days who is tapering slowly, safely shows no benzo at all in three urinalysis drops despite not one day and 38 years without?

In healthcare a shift is occurring. I wonder is it Arizona the USA or the world? The MD is going away. The psychiatrist is going away. The psychologist is going away. In their place? The nurse practitioner (NP) and the doctor of nurse practice (DNP). What factors into this shift?

I hope you will forgive my FAIL (there will always be more, alas), and to make up for my Web trivia fail, up next, a fresh Web trivia question. Thank you for indulging the ridiculosness nature of my humanity! /me takes a bow 🤪

Intention was to clarify that URIs never have been case sensitive. The option related to web server type for case sensitivity was the goal. The option of no index file in directory is also correct. As would be no index file and suffixes in httpd and other server configurations.

The last Web trivia question asked, while well intended, I worded so poorly, I made a FAIL sandwich and ate it today on FB. Friend: "Grey Poupon?" Me: "Guldens Spicy Brown" (to hide the Poup On my sandwich of FAIL). Of course, mistakes are to learn from SO...

From the wonderfu @feather Derek Featherstone and my
@knowbility family as the air rally continues. Check it out here Derek describes what he thinks is the most challenging barrier to accessibility on the world wide web. Hint: it's not alt text!

Working on book, off of the social for a bit. It's so kind folks worry if I go quiet. I appreciate those thoughts so much considering outliving every odd but hey they were wrong so no worrying okay? media dieting is truly helpful not just emotionally but creatively. Recommended!

When they're able to interpret super fast New York pressured speech like oh I don't know me? Then I'll be impressed. Seriously I love that Mozilla is doing this at least somebody is. I'm having such difficulty with speech to text.
What happens when you challenge voice technology engineers to develop creative solutions for no or low internet access?
#CommonVoice and @nvidia partnered to find out. See the winning projects ⤵️

This is why real user testing is still a real need and relying on tools alone limits our capabilities not just for accessibility but performance optimization interoperability and all the yummy things the web offers!
If you want to get better at making accessible websites, my #1 tip is: improve your understanding of how people use the web.
@TetraLogical has great videos that help with this tetralogical.com/blog/2021/1…

The big news in CSS here's a helpful guide to container queries. Reading w3c specs nowadays? And people struggled with CSS 2.1? Ha! Decentralization is difficult for me personally, but it is clearly stated modules are for implementers not devs. Great, true, and always was true.
My guide to ✨Container Queries ✨ has been updated to the syntax released in Chromium 105 and Safari 16.
Learn what problem is being solved, how container queries work, and see how they compare with and complement existing CSS features for layout.

If you haven't followed open web advocacy yet I highly suggest it. They've had tremendous success in the EU with antitrust action against apple and it's relation to browser Monopoly problems. It's taking a back seat to us issues such as they are. And in the world but it's worthy!
Apple has been found to fund the majority of @actonline, an astroturf group pretending to represent the needs of developers. Deceitful conduct from @Apple and ACT’s CEO @morganwreed which does active harm to developers worldwide.

Remember the 5k challenge? An HTML page of 5k in this day and age? Unthinkable! LOL! I have never been at a real loss for words spoken, written or thought! Shocking, I know! But today's languages in #webdevelopment are not scaling to both apps and sites. One size NEVER fits all.

If you're looking for a job and developments in the US definitely check federal agencies like FAA. Federal agencies surprise me with Progressive despite my bias thinking before that they would all be very locked down some of my best gigs: DOE, CIA, Federal Marshal Service and DOD
