> They didn't specifically define "sufficient" until WCAG 2, but thats irrelevant really. It is relevant. I didn't have any means to test it, and that's what I saw as sufficient back then. You never admit you were wrong, I assume? edit: you edited your comment, so here is the lighthouse.org page: https://web.archive.org/web/20080211110529/http://www.lighth... There was no ratio, so it's just my gut feeling which WCAG…

They explain how to test it on the WCAG link you gave. I never said they mentioned a ratio on the lighthouse page. Pretty sure i have not been wrong about anything in this discussion so far... Shall we continue?

Oh you were (like your very last points even), you just keep changing focus. But I'll let it be because I have no more time for these. good luck with your further discussions :)

My focus has solely been on the contrast aspect, as per my original post. But at least we have cleared up your misunderstandings, so I guess we can leave it there. Have a good day!

Perhaps you need to re-read, it was never just the contrast, see my first reply to you, and try to understand my point, which you yourself proved later.

You were right from the start, I had created a site 9 years ago that gets only 65 points in an accessibility check today! So I can't suggest anyone to focus on accessibility?!

You too have a nice day!

What the hell is BI?

I know right? Hilariously bad title, especially considering the I/l ambiguity - a Boys Love novel? Bi-sexual computing? Bachine Learning? Obviously jargon is a thing, we all deal with it, but when you put something up like this to a more general audience, you’ve got to give some thought to presentation, otherwise you end up with apparent word salad.

Yep. I actually guessed it was Business Intelligence before I posted but I play dumb on things like this as a matter of principle.

We shouldn't have to guess.

Yes, they have fundamentally different architectures to serve their respective use cases.

What is the different architecture and what is the different use case? Databases are already general tools. You put data in and query it. At what point does it become a "data warehouse" ?

they're both general terms, but serve different purposes. Data Warehouses tend to focus on read-specific operations, more of an emphasis on historical and/or analytical problems than transactional ones. Subsequently they are likely to optimize data ingress, distributed queries and downplay referential integrity and consistency. The different workloads promote different compute models, but you're right that the line is blurry. Similarly you could ask "Excel has multiple tables (sheets) that you can join and query; is it a database"?
