Ha, so true, and that’s the reality of what I’m more often part of. I’m going into a long-term big project right now where I essentially have to teach accessibility to the developers. Frustrating, but I suppose I should see it as a net positive too. This definitely won’t be perfect…

Really agree about the levels. I think it’s good to get an idea of how WCAG 3.0 is exploring conformance levels (very different from A, AA, AAA) as it might give ideas for new ways of working with the current guidelines – with a focus on outcomes rather than criteria.

Verkligen så. Men antal dagar till julafton vågar man ju inte ens tänka på…
Illustrative social timeline 🤷
Vulnerable communities cultivate a safe space.
Academics/thinkers/learners arrive and feel safe.
Journalists follow the expertise.
Politicians follow the journalists.
And then arrives everyone who wants to harass them all.
Impact of stage 5 determines sustainability.

Ja, mycket korruption finns det. Under min uppväxt fick jag alltid höra: “I Sverige har vi minsann ingen korruption”. Det var en perfekt grogrund för… korruption. Många har nog övat för lite på att känna igen det.

Wow, that is awesome… really makes me want to get into this…. 🥳
Former Tweetdeck users, and people with a desire to get creative with their Bluesky birds-eye view, may appreciate the capabilities that deck.blue brings you.
Get a multi-column layout and customize to your heart’s desire. Any feed or list can of course be added as a column as well.
Many who use computers all day and have a second-nature relationship to digital, struggle with the idea of not wanting to use a computer, like ever.
So when they build things and people don’t use them, they find all sorts of things to blame. But rarely do they blame the computer itself.
I recommend these segments where CNN’s Laura Coates interviews Bluesky CEO Jay Graber, in what is Graber’s first television interview. There are bits about moderation, decentralization, monetization and of course: echo chamber.
Open captions added.
First question: what does decentralized mean?
1/5
How are you managing the influx of new users on Bluesky and the attention that it generates? Graber answers with how users are enjoying the experience.
2/5
Is the tone intentionally different from X? Graber reasons around the idea of creating an environment that feels fun and safe. But also a place where people can express their creativity, and explore the marketplace of feeds, like “subscribing to magazines”.
3/5
How do you avoid a kind of echo chamber? Graber emphasises how it’s really about the user’s choice. People can have different opinions, but aren’t getting harassed, or they split up into different communities.
4/5
Are you intending for Bluesky to become a kind of new resistance platform? Graber underscores again how they’re building it for everyone and that it can be customised for different experiences. Social media as common infrastructure. “A democratic form of media to reflect a democratic society.”
5/5
Very nice thread by Bluesky CEO Lantian "Jay" Graber. I learned a few things.
The fact that Lantian means blue sky in Chinese is kinda mindblowing. Pure coincidence.
@jay.bsky.team: Bluesky now has over 20M people!! 🎉 We've been adding over a million users per day for the last few days. To celebrate, here are 20 fun facts about Bluesky:

Have a fever and feeling really ill. I hate how nervous being ill makes me now that it's established I'm in a risk group due to my mechanical heart valve.
And I have an INR test appointment this morning. No idea how that will be managed. Waiting on a response from the clinic.
→ cont’d
Blood has been drawn successfully. I was able to visit their special infection room. The results from this test will determine if I am allowed the covid and flu vaccine next week. My expectations are low.
I informed a person who scheduled an interview with me next week that I’ll have to do it on one of my car commutes. To which they replied it would be exciting with an online meeting with only sound...
In my day we called it a phone call. 🤷

Jag har aldrig gjort det själv så har inte provat och kan rekommendera något verktyg, men det verkar finnas en del om man googlar.
Det viktigaste för mig när jag lämnade var att ladda ner mitt eget arkiv av inlägg och spara det. Att de redan använt mitt innehåll till annat räknar jag kallt med. 😅

I got a mechanical heart valve on August 19 and can only agree. 😅
(Just did a search for ”mechanical heart valve” and it was cool to see I found several people talking about it.)

Jag tycker egentligen att det är så löjligt dumt av Arla. De bråkade i flera år med Oatly och hittade på ord som pjölk", "trölk", "brölk", "sölk” i sin reklam – det här påminner ju bara om hur anti-havremjölk de var… jättelänge. Som att de gör narr av sig själva.
