I really don't think we can lay the responsibility for this at the feet of "the left." I don't doubt there are those who have had uncomfortable, rude encounters with anti-religious people, but I do doubt how frequently t

It's worth nothing that this change happened before the questionnaire was instituted. (The paper referenced in the article was from 2006, I haven't dug enough to find a date for when this change was made, but the narrative in the

It's valuable to note that this paper is from 2006, and states: "Reweighting was based on data collected from incum- bent ATCSs who took AT-SAT on a research basis; some of these employees achieved overall scores less than 70 (tha

They still had to pass the performance test. It was just no longer the first step in the process. I want to be clear, that doesn't mean the questionnaire was a good thing. It just means that the questionnaire did not lower the bar. Ins

Another thing to check for with sticky headers is how it behaves when the page is zoomed. Often, the header increased in size proportionately, which can shrink down the effective reading area quite a bit. Add in the frequent sticky chat but

It reminds me of working on campus IT, and the sort of person who, at the end of the semester realize there are pages remaining in their "free print" allotment, print out every page completely covered in black ink to waste as much

Which is exactly what the article is about ;) (Well, one example of an early society that didn't distinguish between green a blue.)

My issue is that blood pressure is being used by many corporations/health insurance plans to determine your premiums. So adding yet another layer of nervousness - you will be paying extra money over the course of the next year if your

The lawsuit worthy aspect is that labels for buttons are super important for understanding what a button does. A lack of labels (either through not putting text inside the <button> element or using a technique like aria-label) can qui

On Twitter I'd say the "main character" designation is less about how a person acts, and more about how everyone else is talking about them. They are the main character of the moment because suddenly half of your timeline is

This is a minor point of annoyance between me and my husband, I think because of our height difference. He likes to open ALL the cabinets when putting away dishes, and sometimes leaves them open. I, with eye level much closer to the bottom

Along with the "What about accessibility?" FAQ answer being misleading about the current state, I have two additional concerns: - Special text only for screen readers: This should not be a primary method of making a site accessibl

Because very few companies will maintain that alternate site to ensure it provides the same functionality and content. And accessibility is more than just screen reader compatibility.

It really depends. If table cell order happens to conform with a logical reading order, yeah, screen readers generally figured out when to ignore table semantics. But if the reading order does not make sense going row by row, then they are

I disagree, at least partially. Feeling isolated, alone, or unappreciated are not, in any way, issues that only happen to women. However, the fact that she was often the only woman at the very least exacerbated these issues. If she had had

She seems to realize this and mentions the maybe the same would've been said if she were a man. At the time though, she couldn't see it any other way. And feeling isolated only made it worse. That, I feel is the more important ins
