@evanstucker In Sweden the votes determine the number of seats a party gets in parliament (Sweden's Riksdag). So they don't determine a "winner" per se. The parties in parliament (Sweden currently has 8 parties in parliament) then amongst themselves determine (through negotiation and voting in the chamber) what party or constellation of parties constitute the government.

@evanstucker The nomenclature for this is Party-list proportional representation, which I think about 85 countries make use of.

Still time to vote. Today, on September 11, everyone in #Sweden can vote until 8pm in the designated places of voting (polling stations). For anyone in Sweden hesitating about anything in the voting process and need help in English, I have this website:

Nytt inlägg på bloggen: Etik är inte bara en åsikt

Syftet med etik är att avgöra den moraliskt riktiga handlingen i förhållande till andra människor och levande varelser, i en given situation. En åsikt som uttrycks utan argumentation når inte upp till den verkshöjd som krävs för att i en given situation avgöra rätt eller fel vägval.

För att avgöra moraliskt riktiga handlingar finns olika moraliska teorier. Alla dessa teorier eftersträvar att ge svar på frågan hur ska jag vara eller hur ska jag agera för att minimera skada och bidra till välbefi

New blog post: A guide to voting in the Swedish election

Since the election of 2014 I've maintained a website about voting in Sweden's general election. I made it to provide an easily accessible English-language overview, hoping to encourage more people to vote.

Many people may hesitate to vote if they feel uncertain about the process or are afraid of making mistakes. With simple illustrations and short, clear instructions my intent is to help non-Swedish speaking voters feel more at ease.

Between elections I tend to forget about the website, and th

A complete shot in the dark but I am looking for the 1.0 version software for the Myo armband, for Mac. This device (by Thalmic Labs) has been discontinued but with the software I could still use it. I just can't find the software.

The installer name was myoconnect.dmg - and yes, I've googled.

Eight years ago I made this web page on how to vote in Sweden.

With the general election coming up on September 11 it's relevant to push it a bit.

It can actually be interesting for anyone to understand how the actual voting process works in Sweden.

Thought of a title for a blog post. Now I just have to write it. 😅

From smart phones to smart cities. When ”smart” stopped meaning what you think it means.

Nytt inlägg på bloggen: Ny sajt: intro till WCAG för digital tillgänglighet

I 20 år nu har jag arbetat med digital tillgänglighet . Jag har föreläst, agerat bollplank, gjort granskningar och filmer för att öka förståelse och medvetenhet. Mycket har jag publicerat gratis.

Ett välanvänt referensverk har varit min kostnadsfria e-bok Digitill, som sammanfattar alla riktlinjer i vägledningen WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines). Det är den vägledning som ligger till grund för Lagen om tillgänglighet till digital offentlig service (DOS-lagen).

Nu har jag byggt en hel

In the latest episode of @uxpodcast (episode 294!), @Beantin and I discussed two articles.

The first one about designing the perfect button which I quite enjoyed. The second one an article about sitemaps that got so many things wrong our conversation turned into a talk about how content marketing can be harmful.

Förra året skrev jag en lång genomgång av Försvarsmaktens alla annonser under Pride. Jag uppdaterade precis med årets annons och noterade en liten men viktig ändring i budskapet.
