Hoher Bildschirmkonsum ist bei US-Teens nicht die Ursache, sondern die Auswirkung.

Kennt jemand eine ähnliche Untersuchung aus Europa?

The worst part of Agile and Lean etc has been the wave of folks earning their living telling you confidently how to build while they themselves have barely ever shipped anything.

I have concluded. This book is complete BS. It is badly written and incoherent, which is a feature because you can basically say that whatever folks say about it is a result of them Not Getting It. But if you shake it a lot it shows to me a set of people who have absolutely no idea how to make anything at all. They have made some pretty diagrams and convinced themselves that whatever they are saying is insightful. But it is shallow, incoherent, condescending, riddled with misinterpretation of other people’s thoughts and maybe worst of all, the crime if you will, is that they are not only extremely wrong but they don’t even show us the curtesy of being brief about it. I apologize to them, to myself too to be honest and to all of us because history has shown we will have to live through this because we absolutely love cargo cults in this industry. We will choose a pretty diagram over a conversation with another human being every day of the week.

I posted about brain cancer and hope to find people to pick up the torch on my accessibility projects that I think could help make the web better. I have a major surgery May 29th and time is short. I will only become less able.

Summaries and links can be found here: https://github.com/alt-text-org/in-need-of-adoption

I'm happy to answer any questions, or just discuss things, but I do ask that kind words on cancer not be posted here, despite my appreciation for them.

Boosts and sharing elsewhere appreciated.

When I was a kid I figured out that if I wanted to know how the magician did a trick I shouldn't look where they pointed. Then I figured out that this didn't just apply to magicians, but to politicians, media, clergy, and more.
A whole bunch of folks have not figured this out.

ChatGPT can generate Magic Eye pictures!

At least according to ChatGPT.

Hidden 3D Pictures

Do you know those autostereograms with the hidden 3D pictures? Images like the Magic Eye pictures from the 1990s that look like noisy repeating patterns until you defocus your eyes just right? ChatGPT can generate them! At least according to ChatGPT. I've seen people try making Magic Eye-style images with

If you feed AI an MRI, it will happily write a detailed and very convincing diagnosis...

even if the patient is a dead salmon.

A thought stirred by a jaded commenter:

One of the many half-truths that gets perpetuated is that new cars have many more issues than old cars and that they're only designed to make it past the warranty period before they crumble apart.

The average age of cars on the road keeps going up. That could not be possible if recently-made cars were in fact less reliable or repairable.

I would submit that the actual problem here? It's mechanics who don't keep up with the times.
