Ever try to code a website without DevTools? Ugh! Being able to see the DOM tree (the HTML) & the CSS cascade is a huge help.
We've been wrangling Accessibility without any such tool — until now.
Here's a tour of the Firefox Accessibility Inspector:

"There's open disdain for CSS and HTML which make websites possible... ...This attitude has lead to a sole preference for JavaScript, which has created a brittle, slow, and inaccessible web that is failing to serve the public the way it should."

Was working with a developer last week and we were debugging some CSS. I had them create a test class:
.test
Then I asked them to make it so it applied to all paragraphs inside a div with that class.
They didn’t know how to do it. They’ve been a dev for 10+ years.

I wonder how many people hate CSS because their experience with it is overriding bootstrap.
In completely unrelated news, guess what I'm doing today.

A few months ago, I was frustrated at not being able to attend developer events because of visa challenges. Some really awesome engineers from Microsoft came up with an idea that can help build learning bridges for Africans #thread

Fun new anti-pattern:
1. Sign up for new service.
2. Start using it (or don't).
3. Receive daily emails from somebody at the service named Nick or Zach or something asking "how's it going?" "hey how are you liking it so far?" "hey can we help you get started?"

Yes. @adactio nails it when comes to the "manifesto" from the former Googler. It is intolerable. adactio.com/journal/12658

John McCain is an American hero & one of the bravest fighters I've ever known. Cancer doesn't know what it's up against. Give it hell, John.
