Julia Ferraioli's Writing Accessible Go https://www.juliaferraioli.com/presos/writing-accessible-go/ https://www.juliaferraioli.com/presos/writing-accessible-go/ talk provides great insight on how difficult might be to read source code for someone with a disability. We should aim to make our code accessible for blind developers and for multiple good reasons including opening up opportunities for people and making sure our code is readable for everyone. Often I come across code that wouldn't be there if a blind developer had to work on it just because it would be so hard for them or anyone else to understand without wasting a lot of unnecessary effort that the only plausible solution is to rewrite it nicely. One example is "decorated" code that provides lots of abstractions with no benefits and difficult understanding. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cVaDY0ChvOQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cVaDY0ChvOQ
