If I do any development at all these days, I author HTML, use minimal CSS presentation and minimal interaction. I focus on publishing accessible, searchable, usable, meaningful, linkable data to empower people to access data, disseminate information, gain knowledge, seek wisdom.

Thank you. As a creator who is blind I feel so much pressure around design and it is really hard to explain minimalist philosophy in an over-visualizing world.

Thank you! It's also an adaptive issue for me as I am fully disabled with 9 years survival as an oncological hematology patient, widow, and grateful recepient of advanced treatment through crowdfunding from our wonderful community. I am writing and speaking as I can, but limited.

Well you must focus on what is most important. Imho so should everyone else but of course it takes a crisis to make them do it. :P

It's a sad state of affairs if striving for human bettement is inspired only by crisis. We all have conditions and challenges in life. I was frozen for years with illness, grief, loss. And here we both are, moving forward with optimism despite life's inevitable challenges :)

So true. I have a semi-humorous take on this. I call it the theory of the shit box. :) All of us are born with a box filled with nasty. Illness, loss, heartbreak, etc. We humans seem to put more into that box, when we could get another box and fill it with all the good stuff!
