That thing on the right of the photo is a closed laptop. This person does have a screen, it's just not constantly in use. (Not "in sight", as the article puts it.) They can open up the laptop to show stuff to others when needed. This is how my blind colleague does it.
- elboru 9y agoI've always wondered, is performance an issue with your colleague? Does he need to put extra hours or effort to finish some jobs? Or maybe he can be faster than the average developer with other tasks?
- tom_mellior 9y agoNo, they get the things done that they are assigned. Watching them work, yes, some things are clearly less efficient than for someone who can see the whole screen at once. But overall it works well for our particular setting.
