  1. Ok I am truly sorry to be that guy. BUT:

    Can we PLEASE, leave the "#AI improves #accessibility" talks to people who actually benefit from #accessibility?

    I see SO MANY articles, On LinkedIn, on Slack, on Medium, about how AI improves #accessibility metrics, compliance, automates all the things.

    Newsflash: your metrics are likely incomplete or inconclusive, compliance is at best an illusory snapshot, and automation for #accessibility is still a pipe dream, and that's coming from someone who actually uses these tools OUTSIDE a presentation room.

    I don't care if you're #microsoft, #salesforce or whichever other big name that makes you feel authoritative. You're wrong, sorry to say.

    Want ACTUAL stories from ACTUAL people using #AI to improve #accessibility? Hire me and I'll talk your ear off. That's been me for months now.
    Don't want to, right before #GAAD? Welp ... that tells its own story then, doesn't it?

  5. After an absurd number of late nights of building and debugging, Bocan Music is finally at version 1.0.0.

    It's a native music player for macOS that I hope feels like Apple built it. Written in Swift 6, designed for the platform, optimised for your local MP3 and FLAC library. Think iTunes meets Winamp from 2007

    ✨ Smart playlists
    ✨ Gapless playback
    ✨ AcousticID fingerprinting
    ✨ Scrobbling support
    ✨ Real-time visualizers
    ✨ Lyrics display
    ✨ 10-band EQ
    ✨ Constructed with accessibility in mind

    Open source. Free. No ads. No subscriptions.

    Get it here or with Brew: bocan.app
    See the code - and maybe leave a star? at: github.com/bocan/bocan-music
