Me to myself: You feel sick, stop eating these Trader Joe's peanut butter cups.

Also me: Keep going…

When I see this on my oven I want to take it into a field and bash it like Michael Bolton in Office Space

Huge amount of awesome new features coming to Apple platforms this year. My favorites are a new reader mode added to Magnifier and Hover Typing (a large-text typing experience on iOS). Another great Global Accessibility Awareness Day! https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2024/05/apple-announces-new-accessibility-features-including-eye-tracking/

Check out this great segment from CBS. It features Jordyn Zimmerman who is nonspeaking, and uses Live Speech on iPad to communicate. Our team created this feature to help give everyone a voice. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mTECNar9yG4

I am looking for a macro pad that can pair via Bluetooth to iOS (presenting as a vanilla keyboard I assume). I want to be able to program the buttons to send a sequence of key commands.

Something like a Maglodon or a Huion Keydial Mini.

Anyone know of a model that will work with iOS out of the box?

@RobW huh this does look pretty interesting. I”m trying to wrap my head around how this works with iOS. Do you have to plug into an iOS device or can it be connected like a keyboard?

@dcm It connects via usb to your mac and via Bluetooth to your iOS device where it shows as a keyboard. In the Mac UI you select the command, and the device sends the appropriate key strokes to the iOS device.

Where are you all getting your espresso beans lately? The local stuff I like is now $18.50 for 10 ounces which is just too expensive.

How accessible do blind people find New York? The intersection walk signs don’t make noise, the drivers bikers and walkers are all very aggressive, and there are tons of unexpected obstacles everywhere. I imagine it is not great place to navigate.

@dcm like any city, there are difficult bits but mostly I find it pretty good. very few audible traffic signals but I mostly don't use those anyway. It has been a couple of years since I have been there but I certainly don't remember finding it difficult to navigate.

@dcm I found the one in London super confusing but I think that is because I didn't know what I was doing. HOw do you get tothe platform for one line verses another. think it is just practice.

Does anyone know of any good resources or tutorials that cover modern web development from the perspective of someone who just needs a refresher / whats new in the last 5 years?

@dcm We peaked at jquery and similar “small” libraries.

@jeffwatkins @dcm I came here to say “there are a billion more JavaScript libraries and jquery is still the best”

A conference attendee was trying to explain to my colleague how to do accessibility on iOS. I was like, buddy she literally wrote the software you are taking about.

@dcm sigh. I’ve seen similar examples so often.

I'll be giving a talk again this year at CSUN about a variety of VoiceOver and low-vision features available in iOS. If you are attending or are in Anaheim next week (March 18th-22nd) come say hi!

Here is an overview of some of the features that can be found on Apple Vision Pro: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1DLpGWOUsk

As a low vision user, Zoom and Pointer Control are my two favorite and essential features to turn on.

Ugh water can be such a nightmare to deal with when a leak occurs. A tiny little leak in a heating manifold has lead to our condo, and the condos for all floors below us needing serious demolition and restoration work.

@MuseumShuffle haha oh no... yeah i honestly wonder if flood damage is worse than fire damage. Between rot and mold it just never ends.

@dcm I would definitely say it is! It’s like a monster you don’t know is hiding in your house.

The Charts framework is among my favorite SwiftUI APIs. The composition of UI elements makes perfect sense to me and I can put together some really cool visuals with not much effort.

MuseumShuffle,
@MuseumShuffle@mastodon.social avatar

@dcm I just put a chart in a widget that looks so much nicer than anything I would have pieced together. It’s great!
