You know the view you get in the MySQL command line, where vertical lines separate all the columns and it can be really hard to track what’s what with a screen reader? I learned today that you can terminate a query with G (uppercase G), or add -E (or –vertical) when invoking mysql. This puts each field on its own line, as in field1: value1. It’s way, way easier to read with a screen reader. I wish I’d known this years ago.

If you hate being single, why not try out dating apps. You’ll still end up single but you’ll appreciate it so much more.🤣

The highest ranking search result for accessibility auditing tools is accessibilitychecker.org. The design and initial messaging had me suspicious out of the gate, but I didn’t see immediate branding for an overlay company.

That is until I submitted a sample test of Google and saw one of the overlay monsters appear as a recommended solution.

Equally as gross, to my mind, is the “legal action” modal that appears when you attempt to use the “back to home” link.

Don’t fall for this one, folks.
