ARIA in HTML

This specification defines the authoring rules (author conformance requirements) for the use of Accessible Rich Internet Applications (WAI-ARIA) 1.2 and Digital Publishing WAI-ARIA Module 1.0 attributes on [HTML] elements. This specification's primary objective is to define requirements for use with conformance checking tools used by authors (i.e., web developers). These requirements will aid authors in their development of web content, including custom interfaces and widgets, which make use of ARIA to complement or extend the features of the host language [HTML].

The Christmas Day truce between Be My Eyes AI & me did not last the day.

An absolutely excruciating attempt to get a logical, believable description from the app. Guaranteed to curdle the milk of human kindness.

In a Nancy comic dated December 24, 1945 the origins of "cat speak" are revealed.

And, in a Christmas miracle, my session with BME was successful & relatively pain-free

Din bătrani se povesteşte
Că-n toţi anii negreşit
Moş Crăciun pribeag soseşte
Niciodată n-a lipsit

From ancient times they tell the story
Of Santa Claus who without fail
Comes every year, roaming the world,
He has never missed a year.
