Ik zie regelmatig opgemaakte tekst in socialmediaposts, mooi om te zien, maar vaak niet toegankelijk. Als front-enddeveloper met een beperking vind ik digitale toegankelijkheid erg belangrijk. Daarom deel ik praktische tips om jouw posts toegankelijker te maken, zodat meer mensen ze kunnen lezen en begrijpen.

Short musings on "cognitive debt" - I'm seeing this in my own work, where excessive unreviewed AI-generated code leads me to lose a firm mental model of what I've built, which then makes it harder to confidently make future decisions https://simonwillison.net/2026/Feb/15/cognitive-debt/

How Generative and Agentic AI Shift Concern from Technical Debt to Cognitive Debt
