I'm helping a former client of mine source candidates for a fulltime remote developer position, based in the US!
I'd love to continue working with them but I can't due to my location. You'd be working on Audiom, an audio-based map viewer that allows blind and low vision people to access maps.
Requirements in the post below.

ZeroHeight readers should be aware AudioEye is a litigious company that sues detractors:

https://adrianroselli.com/2023/02/audioeye-will-get-you-sued.htmlZeroHeight should be embarrassed.

Эх, невизуальная доступность, как же тебя наладить
Казалось бы, на дворе 2026 год, есть статьи про доступность (и ещё больше на английском) и, собравшись организовать повышение доступности у себя в отдельно взятом «корпоративном микрорайоне», просто берёшь, читаешь, сталкиваешься с тем, что о процессах организации разработки и тестирования accessibility мало что есть, но не останавливаешься, так как молод, полон сил и наивен, и проживаешь год, полный удивительных приключений и невыносимой радости бытия. Меня зовут Шуст Иван, за мной закреплено более 15 продуктовых команд, что делают фичи ежедневного входа, профиля, истории операций и связанные с безопасностью. Поэтому я, как лид, имею прямое отношение к процессам внедрения accessibility в Альфе, проживший последний год, пытаясь наладить и внедрить процессы accessibility, расскажу о всех граблях, которые мы собрали. Вы узнаете о рабочих подходах при работе с доступностью и как делать вот точно-точно не надо . Технических подробностей будет мало. Но будет очень много про процессы/политику/конфликты, — всё то, что так сильно любят лиды будет интересно всем. В общем, добро пожаловать под кат.

Any personal recommendations for grip products? Someone I know needs help gripping silverware etc. I'm seeing zillions of similar-looking products from brands which could all be AI false fronts for getting my money. Would love to hear from real people. Boosts welcome

Faded a "coming later" card to 0.45 opacity so it would sit back from the live ones. Then I measured it.
Even pure black text on that card reaches 3.16 to 1. Not the grey I had picked, black, the best case the card allows.
That is the part worth keeping. A blanket fade over text on a light background cannot meet AA at any colour, so there was no better colour to find. The fade came out entirely, and a badge and a muted body tone carry the recession instead.

Can’t wait to see what wonderful accessibility horrors people manage with CSS’ random() in regards to focus order, colour palettes, and other such non-human tested wonders.
