Notion (notion.so) is the absolute worst website I’ve seen for accessibility in a long, long time. Almost every action you do pops up in a modal that doesn’t announce to your screen reader, so you have to go to the bottom of the page and press enter on it. But when you do, the contents of the modal get inserted somewhere fucking random on the page, and doesn’t move your focus, so you have to find it yourself. There also loads of unlabeled buttons, and, worst of all, when opening a document and attempting to read by line, every. Single. Character. Takes up its own line! WTF! I can excuse unlabeled buttons but how do you fail *that* badly?

As everyone rushes to invest in AI, moving away from crypto, my new favourite term has emerged: grift shift.

I took this photo of my kid playing with his blocks the other day, and when I realized it reminded me of something, well...I had to make this.

i now own a MULTITIMBRAL TONE GENERATOR from the famous ROLAND SC SERIES!!!

specifically the Roland SC-7. it's a heavily cut down version of the SC-55: (almost) no GS, no MT-32 patches, a lot less effect customisation, no sample editing. it's not even a "Sound Canvas", just "SC".

but you know what it is? very smol, and very cute. it's incredibly small and light for a 1992 piece of computer hardware. it has a little red LED that blinks at me when it receives MIDI messages. <3

AI is a very processing-heavy way to copy and paste badly.

Never in my life would I expected a cybersecurity issue (at least not a non-food safety issue) to result in a food recall
