Going for the second 30-ish minute run at the ffconf design over on twitch again https://www.twitch.tv/remysharp (hitting stream in just a jiffy)

Is it (or rather, which do you think of):

Cat farted on me.

I'm not okay.

Obviously I suck at new tech. Here's me using chatgpt's voice interface on my desktop…thinking that I had killed the session.

(ChatGPT didn't shutdown, I had to do it manually)

that's a developer's brain in hard core money making action:

hmm.

And then some more hmms.

High quality.

I'm feeling very "pin-pillow-ey". I had needle in me to take blood (for my "yer old - have an MOT"), my MS medication (monthly) and yesterday a COVID booster (which, I can confirm, still feels like you've been donkey kicked in the arm).

If anyone is at all interested, I'm going to be doing 30 mins of live coding the 2024 ffconf web site design (because current design is naff): https://www.twitch.tv/remysharp/

I've really enjoyed doing Japanese Duolingo for nearly a year now (350 days), but it's at the level where I can rarely read the Japanese and I'm making pattern matches guesses at answers.

I really want to (and probably will) reset my progress and go back to the first levels to get the fundamentals really cooked in.

The ffconf talk I want to see (it's title):

Seriously, what's the fucking point? How to survive this shitfest.

Then it's 35 minutes of puppies and kittens rolling around the stage and playing with the audience.

Looking forward to this meet up for Brighton/near Brighton folks: https://www.meetup.com/breaking-breadboards/events/300521882/

I'm giving a short show and tell on my (currently failing/currently burning my fingertips) gameboy arcade project.

Impressively I completely fucked up the url over on twitsir, overwhelming response point it out (1 person) - I guess the AI bots aren't useful for that.

Anyone know how to turn off android's new "hold from bottom and get stuck in capture what's on the screen"-mode?

@paddy thanks - sorted with that tip 👍

Fairly pleased that I've managed to port my "Rest" gym watch app from the Pebble to my new Casio F91 with Sensor-Watch mode (not that it uses any sensors).

I like the disconnectiveness of the Casio watch (still love the OG Pebble too)

Sipping a beer, reading, putting some final touches on the songs for album 3, and practicing my Turkish

@brucelawson is it terrible that initially I thought that was just a picture in front of you. Not entirely dissimilar to the wall paintings you'd find at a travel agent.

Doing our first Eurovision family watch party. Late one for the little ones but really looking forward to it (daughter even turned down a sleep over so we could have the family evening 🥹).

a11y friends - I've been thinking about "ffconf" and how it reads out as a single word (rather than "FF Conf"). The visual brand is "ffconf" but on a screenreader I want it to read out differently.

I thought I could use aria-label, but VO on macos is still seeming to just say it as a single word.

Is there something I should be doing?

rem,
@rem@front-end.social avatar

@dletorey not sure, but FFConf actually reads aloud just fine.

rem,
@rem@front-end.social avatar

@dletorey yeah, presumably the screen reader is smart enough to read it as an acronym

rem,
@rem@front-end.social avatar

@yatil though I wholeheartedly agree, this case is reversed. I'm trying to mess with the visualisation of the name

rem,
@rem@front-end.social avatar

@plfstr @dletorey that's what I did originally but VoiceOver still reads as"f'conf". I'm guessing it's trying to be smart

rem,
@rem@front-end.social avatar

@yatil the, aloud text is "F F Conf". So visually I've messed it up, but I've approached the design visually, for my sins.

rem,
@rem@front-end.social avatar

I'm a prat. I've done this so many times and every time I forget.

It should be: <abbr title="FF Conf">ffconf</abbr>

rem,
@rem@front-end.social avatar

@urlyman pretty sure it's not…(just tested with Voice Over and no, definitely not!)

rem,
@rem@front-end.social avatar

@urlyman yeah, that element seems to go on and off the naughty list. Not 100% sure where it's sitting now, but it did read aloud as I'd expect
