    I really don't think we can lay the responsibility for this at the feet of "the left." I don't doubt there are those who have had uncomfortable, rude encounters with anti-religious…

    It's worth nothing that this change happened before the questionnaire was instituted. (The paper referenced in the article was from 2006, I haven't dug enough to find a date for wh…

    It's valuable to note that this paper is from 2006, and states: "Reweighting was based on data collected from incum- bent ATCSs who took AT-SAT on a research basis; some of these e…

    They still had to pass the performance test. It was just no longer the first step in the process. I want to be clear, that doesn't mean the questionnaire was a good thing. It just …

    Another thing to check for with sticky headers is how it behaves when the page is zoomed. Often, the header increased in size proportionately, which can shrink down the effective r…

    It reminds me of working on campus IT, and the sort of person who, at the end of the semester realize there are pages remaining in their "free print" allotment, print out every pag…

    Which is exactly what the article is about ;) (Well, one example of an early society that didn't distinguish between green a blue.)

    My issue is that blood pressure is being used by many corporations/health insurance plans to determine your premiums. So adding yet another layer of nervousness - you will be payin…

    The lawsuit worthy aspect is that labels for buttons are super important for understanding what a button does. A lack of labels (either through not putting text inside the element …

    On Twitter I'd say the "main character" designation is less about how a person acts, and more about how everyone else is talking about them. They are the main character of the mome…

    This is a minor point of annoyance between me and my husband, I think because of our height difference. He likes to open ALL the cabinets when putting away dishes, and sometimes le…

    Along with the "What about accessibility?" FAQ answer being misleading about the current state, I have two additional concerns: - Special text only for screen readers: This should …

    Because very few companies will maintain that alternate site to ensure it provides the same functionality and content. And accessibility is more than just screen reader compatibili…

    She seems to realize this and mentions the maybe the same would've been said if she were a man. At the time though, she couldn't see it any other way. And feeling isolated only mad…
