Cool app. Just a bit of feedback: 1. Since you're targeting blind users, you may want to use a bit more ARIA on your page, particularly around the popup menu. 2. It would be nice if the main page explicitly stated that this was for IOS

Then you might suppose those good cops might stand up when one of their buddy bad cops kills unarmed people or does something equally wrong. And you might suppose that, while silence doesn't imply consent, that maybe it implies somethi

There's a lot of idealism here. In general, I think it'd be great if the person pulling me over for speeding was different from the person who could violently shut down an armed robbery. It'd be great if the person arresting

I have a hard time swallowing police department rhetoric in these situations. The officer has a gun, and the unfortunate power to make "extra-legal" killings with it. They're safe. If they irresponsibly use that gun in an uns

Hmm, not sure I've ever had a computer with 5 audio plugs. Actually, I'm trying to sort through the various audio connectivity standards to find which works best for me. Because I don't need a large screen, and because the sc

Another perspective that I'm surprised hasn't been voiced: Brendan had the privilege to climb to the rank of CEO, if only for a few days. But it is because of views like his that many don't get a chance at all to climb to

Wow, understatement of the decade. Is that also true of the folks who wouldn't leave Woolworth's lunch counters a few decades back? I don't know how you, personally, feel on this issue, but designating people who love each ot

Maybe naive, but here's what I wonder. Why doesn't someone write an exchange, open source the code, and build transparency in from the beginning? Publish every wallet address with no associated info so users can watch transactions

Meals have been social for much longer than they've been nutritionally quantified. IOW, we've shared food and community for thousands of years just fine without a list of nutritional facts for the buffalo or potatos we've eat
