"Out-of-touch, influential old guy working in web accessibility for many years claims that all hope is gone and only #AI can save us. People who he thinks are disabled will receive a more “concise” UI, because he thinks they are not able to use a computer and assistive technology."
Question to all the "You must always use relative units like em or rem, but never absolute units like px" advocates out there:
In my eyes, this only makes sense if you don't set a base font size, but rely completely on the user's personal browser settings. Am I right or what am I getting wrong?
Les devs qui sont en freelance, est-ce que vous pouvez répondre à une ou plusieurs de ces questions pour moi ? Je numérote pour que vous puissiez répondre à celles que vous voulez. Vous pouvez répondre en privé si vous préférez, évidemment !
1/ Comment vous trouvez vos missions ? (Plateformes ? Bouche à oreilles ? Autre ?)
2/ Combien vous gagnez par an net d'impôts environ ?
3/ Combien de temps vous passez à travailler ? (Si possible, détaillez temps passé à chercher des missions, temps passer à dev, etc.)
4/ Comment vous avez franchi le cap ?
5/ Quelles compétences vous avez ?

One of the reasons why I haven’t done a lot of front end work in the last decade or so is I knew so many annoying ‘front end isn’t real coding’ bros back in the day. This month I’ve been learning so much and css is so good and I feel so powerful that I can build cool sites
The quiet, pervasive devaluation of frontend - Josh Collinsworth
Here is a long article that's well worth your time, on the perception of the craft of front end development. Lots of quote-worthy thoughts in there.
(…) If our skills are valuable as duct tape over the cracks of organizational shortcomings, why aren’t they valuable during the planning and decision-making that led to those defects, when we could potentially prevent them?
(…)
Frontend tools market themselves as though frontend is something no one wants to do, and nobody should care about any more than they have to.
(…)
It seems like nobody thinks of frontend as a critical part of the product anymore; they only think of it as the nice box the product arrives in.
Is there any moderately-sized PyScript application that can serve as a good example for a "full fat" development environment? Plenty of dependencies, automatic CI gating of pull requests, a substantial amount of different bits of UI? I really want to understand what moving beyond "hello world" looks like. #python#frontend
