Fast Company: This free web tool makes everything way easier to read. “The next time you find yourself facing a web page with way too much going on, remember a tool called Textise​…. Textise is a simple-as-can-be website that converts any page you’re looking at into plain text—no fuss, no formatting, no images of any sort included.”

Does anyone have any academic sources on code readability regarding *file* length and number of *files*? I can only find sources on readability of snippets.

Guess who woke up at midnight and shipped the update for PNL Reader to support site customizations? Huge milestone 👏 (I mean both ways)

Just realized one thing I like about my color #Kobo device:
The sparing use of color reminds me a lot of the way color was used in early OSes, like Macintosh System 6.

Color is used for a splash, but the core interface is stark black and white for maximum contrast and readability (although with apropos use of antialiasing for font rendering when possible).

Modern desktop OSes really, really need to rediscover the wisdom of using color sparingly.

When I talk to people about web quality, they always mention measures based on code #readability and #maintainability. Rarely or never do they mention #performance, #accessibility, or #userExperience.

Performance _is_ accessibility. I think there is so much opportunity for me and my colleagues to raise the bar at the #RaspberryPiFoundation to improve access to kids and educators around the world.
