From the article: "New technology — and its rapid adoption for remote work during COVID-19 — continues to break down many barriers for people with disabilities. There are more ways than ever for workplaces to ensure accessibility, often at little to no cost. For example, voice recognition expands communication options for those who face challenges with traditional keyboards. And auto-captioning ensures that people who are deaf or experiencing hearing loss can fully engage with multimedia content."

Had a bit of a mixed day. It started off with a wonderful women’s lunch at church—thankful for my Roger system, which made conversations manageable, though still challenging. Then came a pretty intense therapy session. Now taking some time to relax before heading to choral rehearsal and service tomorrow morning.

Now that I'm wearing short sleeves, my watch tells me that my bicycle commute is too loud due to wind noise. I do notice that the wind noise is pretty loud. Does anyone know whether bicycling is a risk for hearing loss? Should I think about wearing earmuffs? I think they will reduce the wind noise without blocking real noise.
