Homeless at 15. Why? Who never calls the police when their child goes missing? Sick people who have sick children. Medically, trauma from combat, abuse, trafficking, addiction. Anyone falling and finding fortitude to lift up at all much less again and again is statistically rare.
I hear that's Belarus they've been doing it in Belarus for a lot of investment opportunities there ;-) yo-yo Belarus is there a Bernard Madoffski in the house? 馃お馃槱
I see your dark humor in action there my dear. This one's hard for me largely due to being born a few months after the Bay of Pigs and living through the dismantling of the Soviet Union only to see Germany rearm itself in 2022? That alone flipping in a few Generations? Disturbing
It is a flaw and it is a necessity and perhaps that is the beauty of complexity and paradox. I have laughed at things that nobody should laugh at in reality but in the realm of humor were the only way I could deal with the reality and not break apart.
A much more heartbreaking issue and perhaps difficult 4 ongoing reasons of defense we have so little to take care of our living veterans at-large much less those who went and served in combat much less those of us orphans and widows who loved and served those who served us.
Talk about undesirable profiteering direct-to-consumer? Lawyers cold call leads in SSI and SSDI cases with a no-win without representation for percentage of settlement is illegal and somehow happens and some has to do with fraud. Facts, evidence. 6 weeks later case won and done.
Many of those benefits and it's not just SSDI to which I refer there are a lot of Medicare Medicaid provider copay non-paid for complexities in complex Care Management but to get that benefit many people don't get a benefit unless they fight legally. Lawyers contacted me for this
Social Security disability is different than the SSI which is the welfare system SSI is full taxes SSDI is largely withheld. What's more it's based on having worked long enough to have learned enough for the right to have it in the first place. Then...
Accessibility is far bigger than the science and practice of making a website compliant to a law or a condition we believe to be human when all humans are conditional. The web, its sites much less applications are useless to anyone who can't get to them even with the best #a11y

Is any of this possible to do in other formats such as video with you describing your process? I often wonder different ways to present interesting content like yours to people who partially or simply cannot interact with the results but code, understand and want to learn?

Darn it and here I thought I had one freaking Advantage as Fairy Godmother of the World Wide Web would mean I didn't have to get more splaining! More learning always. But really I have to be splained to again? Is there an exemption clause for fairies and godmothers? 馃槒馃拹馃槱馃槀
Accessibility first. If we cannot access a reference freely available due to location, language, belief, government limitations, literacy, economy and digital divide? That which is between us and that reference is what disables inclusion and fosters exclusion. That is disability.

I mean profiteering in a predatory way without accountability to society?. Why am I paying taxes on benefits I receive from having paid taxes? How about specialty immunotherapy two of which are now banned globally for devastating life not preserving it? Who benefited there?

I greatly admire @lexfridman. And I couldn't agree more. Let us help each other. We have the ways and means. Humans make incredible tools such as the Web. We've such potential for understanding, communication, evolution. #100DaysOfCode #webdevelopers #webdesigner #UX #a11y #STEM
Humanity is forever on the brink of destruction. This life, this world we got is precious but fragile. Let's help each other. Our survival depends on it. It's the only chance we got.

War is always horrific and to me the most abhorrent truth of humans. But what child is born to naturally run into battle? We are a species meant for procreation, not desecration. Whether we can evolve, perhaps, is up to us as individuals and groups in collaboration together.

I empathize with that kind of scary for a nine-year-old. My father came home from South Korea with a purple heart and a broken soul. My husband a hero who served in Vietnam dead from agent orange exposure. Far too young. They were peace loving boys coerced and drafted to serve.

I'm with you. It is a question of our age how to promote social discourse on social media much less the web at large now that is not hate and rhetoric driven but human in nature and deep in thought and reach. I worry and ruminate about these problems I want to find Solutions.

We have plenty of reminders sadly. The Ukraine issue is especially challenging to me because it has honestly been going hot and cold for the vast majority of my life. A roller coaster of hell. I'm tired of Warfare. Let us use our networks as communities and ambassadors of peace.

I hope you're enjoying the quotes and insights from the #Internet and #Web's pioneers for #100DaysOfCode and to celebrate the social importance of what we do. Wanting in biogenetic diversity, today I'll skip ahead in time and share an important point about me, you and friendship.
