Unstoppable Mindset
Episode 356 – Unstoppable Pioneer in Web Accessibility with Mike Paciello

Unstoppable Mindset

In January, 2022 today's guest, Mike Paciello, made his first appearance on Unstoppable Mindset in Episode 19. It is not often that most of us have the opportunity and honor to meet a real trendsetter and pioneer much less for a second time. However, today, we get to spend more time with Mike, and we get to talk about not only the concepts around web accessibility, but we also discuss the whole concept of inclusion and how much progress we have made much less how much more work needs to be done.   Mike Paciello has been a fixture in the assistive technology world for some thirty years. I have known of him for most of that time, but our paths never crossed until September of 2021 when we worked together to help create some meetings and sessions around the topic of website accessibility in Washington D.C.   As you will hear, Mike began his career as a technical writer for Digital Equipment Corporation, an early leader in the computer manufacturing industry. I won't tell you Mike's story here. What I will say is that although Mike is fully sighted and thus does not use much of the technology blind and low vision persons use, he really gets it. He fully understands what Inclusion is all about and he has worked and continues to work to promote inclusion and access for all throughout the world. As Mike and I discuss, making technology more inclusive will not only help persons with disabilities be more involved in society, but people will discover that much of the technology we use can make everyone's life better. We talk about a lot of the technologies being used today to make websites more inclusive including the use of AI and how AI can and does enhance inclusion efforts.   It is no accident that this episode is being released now. This episode is being released on July 25 to coincide with the 35th anniversary of the signing of the Americans With Disabilities Act which was signed on July 26, 1990. HAPPY BIRTHDAY ADA!   After you experience our podcast with Mike, I'd love to hear your thoughts. Please feel free to email me at michaelhi@accessibe.com to tell me of your observations.

The podcast where inclusion, diversity and the unexpected meet. Hi, I'm Michael Hingson, Chief Vision Officer for accessiBe and the author of the number one New York Times bestselling book, Thunder dog, the story of a blind man, his guide dog and the triumph of trust. Thanks for joining me on my podcast as we explore our own blinding fears of inclusion unacceptance and our resistance to change. We will discover the idea that no matter the situation, or the people we encounter, our own fears, and prejudices often are our strongest barriers to moving forward. The unstoppable mindset podcast is sponsored by accessiBe, that's a c c e s s i capital B e. Visit www.accessibe.com to learn how you can make your website accessible for persons with disabilities. And to help make the internet fully inclusive by the year 2025. Glad you dropped by we're happy to meet you and to have you here with us.   Michael Hingson ** 01:21 Well, hi everyone, and welcome to another episode of unstoppable mindset where inclusion diversity and the unexpected meet. Normally, our guests deal with the unexpected, which is anything that doesn't have to do with inclusion or diversity. Today, however, we get to sort of deal with both. We have a guest who actually was a guest on our podcast before he was in show 19 that goes all the way back to January of 2022, his name is Mike Paciello. He's been very involved in the whole internet and accessibility movement and so on for more than 30 years, and I think we're going to have a lot of fun chatting about what's going on in the world of accessibility and the Internet and and, you know, and but we won't probably get into whether God is a man or a woman, but that's okay, God is actually both, so we don't have to worry about that. But anyway, Mike, welcome to unstoppable mindset.   Mike Paciello ** 02:21 Yeah, Hey, Mike, thanks a lot. I can't believe has it really been already since today, six years since the last time I came on this? No, three, 320, 22 Oh, 2022, I for whatever I 2019 Okay, three years sounds a little bit more realistic, but still, it's been a long time. Thank you for having me. It's, it's, it's great to be here. And obviously, as you know, a lot of things have changed in my life since then. But, yeah, very   Michael Hingson ** 02:46 cool. Well, you were in show number 19. And I'm not sure what number this is going to be, but it's going to be above 360 so it's been a while. Amazing, amazing, unstoppable, unstoppable. That's it. We got to keep it going. And Mike and I have been involved in a few things together, in, in later, in, I guess it was in 20 when we do the M enabling Summit, that was 2021 wasn't it? Yeah, I think it was, I think it was the year before we did the podcast, yeah, podcast, 2021 right? So we were in DC, and we both worked because there was a group that wanted to completely condemn the kinds of technologies that accessibe and other companies use. Some people call it overlays. I'm not sure that that's totally accurate today, but we we worked to get them to not do what they originally intended to do, but rather to explore it in a little bit more detail, which I think was a lot more reasonable to do. So we've, we've had some fun over the years, and we see each other every so often, and here we are again today. So yeah, I'm glad you're here. Well, tell us a little about well, and I guess what we'll do is do some stuff that we did in 2022 tell us about kind of the early Mike, growing up and all that and what eventually got you into dealing with all this business of web accessibility and such. Yeah, thank you.   Mike Paciello ** 04:08 You know, I've tried to short this, shorten this story 100 times. Oh, don't worry. See if I get let's see if I can keep it succinct and and for the folks out there who understand verbosity and it's in its finest way for screen reader users, I'll try not to be verbose. I already am being   Michael Hingson ** 04:28 intermediate levels fine.   Mike Paciello ** 04:30 I came into this entire field as a technical writer trying to solve a problem that I kind of stumbled into doing some volunteer work for the debt the company that I then then worked for, a Digital Equipment Corporation, a software company, DEC software hardware company, back then, right back in the early 80s. And as a technical writer, I started learning at that time what was called Gen code. Eventually that morphed in. To what Goldfarb, Charles Goldfarb at IBM, called SGML, or standard, Generalized Markup Language, and that really became the predecessor, really gave birth to what we see on the web today, to HTML and the web markup languages. That's what they were, except back then, they were markup languages for print publications. So we're myself and a lot of colleagues and friends, people probably here, I'm sure, at bare minimum, recognized named George Kercher. George and I really paired together, worked together, ended up creating an international steer with a group of other colleagues and friends called the icad 22 which is 22 stands for the amount of elements in that markup language. And it became the adopted standard accessibility standard for the American Association of Publishers, and they published that became official. Eventually it morphed into what we today call, you know, accessible web development. It was the first instance by that was integrated into the HTML specification, I think officially, was HTML 3.1 3.2 somewhere in there when it was formally adopted and then announced in 1997 and at the World Wide Web Conference. That's really where my activity in the web began. So I was working at DEC, but I was doing a lot of volunteer work at MIT, which is where the W 3c was located at that particular time. And Tim Bursley, who a lot of people i Sir, I'm sure, know, the inventor of the web, led the effort at that time, and a few other folks that I work with, and.da Jim Miller, a few other folks. And we were, well, I wasn't specifically approached. Tim was approached by Vice President Gore and eventually President Clinton at that time to see if we could come up with some sort of technical standard for accessibility. And Tim asked if I'd like to work on it myself. Danielle, Jim, a few others, we did, and we came up that first initial specification and launched it as part of the Web Accessibility Initiative, which we created in 1997 from there, my career just took off. I went off did a couple of small companies that I launched, you know, my namesake company, the Paciello Group, or TPG, now called TPG IGI, yeah, yeah, which was acquired by vector capital, or this bureau back in 2017 so it's hard to believe that's already almost 10 years ago. No, yeah. And I've been walking in, working in the software, web accessibility field, usability field, writing fields, you know, for some pretty close to 45 years. It's 2025 40 years, I mean, and I started around 1984 I think it was 8384 when all this first   Michael Hingson ** 07:59 started. Wow, so clearly, you've been doing it for a while and understand a lot of the history of it. So how overall has the whole concept of web accessibility changed over the years, not only from a from a coding standpoint, but how do you think it's really changed when it comes to being addressed by the public and companies and so on.   Mike Paciello ** 08:26 That's a great question. I'd certainly like to be more proactive and more positive about it, but, but let me be fair, if you compare today and where web accessibility resides, you know, in the in the business value proposition, so to speak, and list the priorities of companies and corporations. You know, fortune 1000 fortune 5000 call whatever you whatever you want. Accessibility. Is there people? You could say section five way you could say the Web Accessibility Initiative, WCAG, compliance, and by and large, particularly technology driven, digital economy driven businesses, they know what it is. They don't know how to do it. Very rarely do they know how to do it. And even the ones that know how to do it don't really do it very well. So it kind of comes down to the 8020, rule, right? You're a business. Whatever kind of business you are, you're probably in more online presence than ever before, and so a lot of your digital properties will come under you know the laws that mandate usability and accessibility for people with disabilities today that having been said and more and more people know about it than ever before, certainly from the time that I started back in the you know, again, in the early, mid 80s, to where we are today. It's night and day. But in terms of prioritization, I don't know. I think what happens quite often is business value proposition. Decisions get in the way. Priorities get in the way of what a business in, what its core business are, what they're trying to accomplish, who they're trying to sell, sell to. They still view the disability market, never mind the blind and low vision, you know, market alone as a niche market. So they don't make the kind of investors that I, I believe that they could, you know, there's certainly, there are great companies like like Microsoft and and Google, Amazon, Apple, you know, a lot of these companies, you know, have done some Yeoman work at that level, but it's nowhere near where it should be. It just absolutely isn't. And so from that standpoint, in where I envision things, when I started this career was when I was in my 20 somethings, and now I'm over now I'm over 60. Well over 60. Yeah, I expected a lot more in, you know, in an internet age, much, much more.   Michael Hingson ** 11:00 Yeah, yeah. Well, it's it's really strange that so much has happened and yet so much hasn't happened. And I agree with you, there's been a lot of visibility for the concept of accessibility and inclusion and making the the internet a better place, but it is so unfortunate that most people don't know how to how to do anything with it. Schools aren't really teaching it. And more important than even teaching the coding, from from my perspective, looking at it more philosophically, what we don't tend to see are people really recognizing the value of disabilities, and the value that the market that people with disabilities bring to the to the world is significant. I mean, the Center for Disease Control talks about the fact that they're like up to 25% of all Americans have some sort of disability. Now I take a different approach. Actually. I don't know whether you've read my article on it, but I believe everyone on the in the in the world has a disability, and the reality is, most people are light dependent, but that's as much a disability as blindness. Except that since 1878 when Thomas Edison invented the light bulb. We have focused nothing short of trying to do everything we can to improve light on demand for the last 147 years. And so the disability is mostly covered up, but it's still there.   Mike Paciello ** 12:37 You know, yeah, and I did read that article, and I couldn't agree with you more. In fact, I personally think, and I actually have my own blog coming out, and probably later this month might be early, early July, where I talk about the fact that accessibility okay and technology really has been all along. And I love the fact that you call, you know, you identified the, you know, the late 1800s there, when Edison did the the light bulb, Alexander Graham Bell came up with, you know, the telephone. All of those adventures were coming about. But accessibility to people with disabilities, regardless of what their disability is, has always been a catalyst for innovation. That was actually supposed to be the last one I was going to make tonight. Now it's my first point because, because I think it is exactly as you said, Mike, I think that people are not aware. And when I say people, I mean the entire human population, I don't think that we are aware of the history of how, how, because of, I'm not sure if this is the best word, but accommodating users, accommodating people with disabilities, in whatever way, the science that goes behind that design architectural to the point of development and release, oftentimes, things that were done behalf of people with disabilities, or for People with disabilities, resulted in a fundamental, how's this for? For an interesting term, a fundamental alteration right to any other you know, common, and I apologize for the tech, tech, tech language, user interface, right, right? Anything that we interact with has been enhanced because of accessibility, because of people saying, hey, if we made this grip a little bit larger or stickier, we'll call it so I can hold on to it or softer for a person that's got fine motor dexterity disabilities, right? Or if we made a, you know, a web browser, which, of course, we have such that a blind individual, a low vision individual, can adjust the size of this, of the images and the fonts and things like that on a web page, they could do that unknown. Well, these things now. As we well know, help individuals without disabilities. Well, I'm not much, right, and I, again, I'm not speaking as a person beyond your characterization that, hey, look, we are all imperfect. We all have disabilities. And that is, that is absolutely true. But beyond that, I wear glasses. That's it. I do have a little hearing loss too. But you know, I'm finding myself more and more, for example, increasing the size of text. In fact, my note, yes, I increase them to, I don't know they're like, 18 point, just so that it's easier to see. But that is a common thing for every human being, just like you said.   Michael Hingson ** 15:36 Well, the reality is that so many tools that we use today come about. And came about because of people with disabilities. Peggy Chung Curtis Chung's wife, known as the blind history lady, and one of the stories that she told on her first visit to unstoppable mindset, which, by the way, is episode number five. I remember that Peggy tells the story of the invention of the typewriter, which was invented for a blind countist, because she wanted to be able to communicate with her lover without her husband knowing about it, and she didn't want to dictate things and so on. She wanted to be able to create a document and seal it, and that way it could be delivered to the lever directly. And the typewriter was the result of   Mike Paciello ** 16:20 that? I didn't know that. I will definitely go back. I just wrote it down. I wrote down a note that was episode number five, yeah, before with Curtis a couple of times, but obviously a good friend of ours, yeah, but I yeah, that's, that's, that's awesome.   Michael Hingson ** 16:37 Well, and look at, I'll tell you one of the things that really surprises me. So Apple was going to get sued because they weren't making any of their products accessible. And before the lawsuit was filed, they came along and they said, we'll fix it. And they did make and it all started to a degree with iTunes U but also was the iPhone and the iPod and so on. But they they, they did the work. Mostly. They embedded a screen reader called Voiceover in all of their operating systems. They did make iTunes you available. What really surprises me, though is that I don't tend to see perhaps some things that they could do to make voiceover more attractive to drivers so they don't have to look at the screen when a phone call comes in or whatever. And that they could be doing some things with VoiceOver to make it more usable for sighted people in a lot of instances. And I just don't, I don't see any emphasis on that, which is really surprising to me.   Mike Paciello ** 17:38 Yeah, I totally agree. I mean, there are a lot of use cases there that you go for. I think Mark Rico would certainly agree with you in terms of autonomous driving for the blind, right? Sure that too. But yeah, I definitely agree and, and I know the guy that the architect voiceover and develop voiceover for Apple and, boy, why can I think of his last name? I know his first name. First name is Mike. Is with Be My Eyes now and in doing things at that level. But I will just say one thing, not to correct you, but Apple had been in the accessibility business long before voice over Alan Brightman and Gary mulcher were instrumental towards convincing, you know, jobs of the importance of accessibility to people with disabilities,   Michael Hingson ** 18:31 right? But they weren't doing anything to make products accessible for blind people who needed screen readers until that lawsuit came along. Was   Mike Paciello ** 18:40 before screen readers? Yeah, that was before,   Michael Hingson ** 18:43 but they did it. Yeah. The only thing I wish Apple would do in that regard, that they haven't done yet, is Apple has mandates and requirements if you're going to put an app in the App Store. And I don't know whether it's quite still true, but it used to be that if your app had a desktop or it looked like a Windows desktop, they wouldn't accept it in the app store. And one of the things that surprises me is that they don't require that app developers make sure that their products are usable with with VoiceOver. And the reality is that's a it doesn't need to be a really significantly moving target. For example, let's say you have an app that is dealing with displaying star charts or maps. I can't see the map. I understand that, but at least voiceover ought to give me the ability to control what goes on the screen, so that I can have somebody describe it, and I don't have to spend 15 or 20 minutes describing my thought process, but rather, I can just move things around on the screen to get to where we need to go. And I wish Apple would do a little bit more in that regard.   Mike Paciello ** 19:52 Yeah, I think that's a great a great thought and a great challenge, if, between me and you. Yeah, I think it goes back to what I said before, even though we both see how accessibility or accommodating users with disabilities has led to some of the most incredible innovations. I mean, the Department of Defense, for years, would integrate people with disabilities in their user testing, they could better help, you know, military soldiers, things like that, assimilate situations where there was no hearing, there was they were immobile, they couldn't see all, you know, all of these things that were natural. You know, user environments or personas for people with disabilities. So they led to these kind of, you know, incredible innovations, I would tell you, Mike, I think you know this, it's because the business value proposition dictates otherwise.   Michael Hingson ** 20:55 Yeah, and, well, I guess I would change that slightly and say that people think that the business proposition does but it may very well be that they would find that there's a lot more value in doing it if they would really open up their minds to looking at it differently. It's   Mike Paciello ** 21:10 kind of, it's kind of like, it's tough. It's kind of like, if I could use this illustration, so to speak, for those who may not be religiously inclined, but you know, it's, it's like prophecy. Most people, you don't know whether or not prophecy is valid until years beyond, you know, years after. And then you could look back at time and say, See, it was all along. These things, you know, resulted in a, me, a major paradigm shift in the way that we do or don't do things. And I think that's exactly what you're saying. You know, if, if people would really look at the potential of what technologies like, you know, a voice over or, as you know, a good friend of mine said, Look, we it should be screen readers. It should be voice IO interfaces, right? That every human can use and interact with regardless. That's what we're really talking about. There's   Michael Hingson ** 22:10 a big discussion going on some of the lists now about the meta, Ray Ban, glasses, and some of the things that it doesn't do or that they don't do well, that they should like. It's really difficult to get the meta glasses to read completely a full page. I think there are ways that people have now found to get it to do that, but there are things like that that it that that don't happen. And again, I think it gets back to what you're saying is the attitude is, well, most people aren't going to need that. Well, the reality is, how do you know and how do you know what they'll need until you offer options. So one of my favorite stories is when I worked for Kurzweil a long time ago, some people called one day and they wanted to come and see a new talking computer terminal that that Ray and I and others developed, and they came up, and it turns out, they were with one of those initial organizations out of Langley, Virginia, the CIA. And what they wanted to do was to use the map the the terminal connected to their computers to allow them to move pointers on a map and not have to watch the map or the all of the map while they were doing it, but rather, the computer would verbalize where the pointer was, and then they could they could move it around and pin a spot without having to actually look at the screen, because the way their machine was designed, it was difficult to do that. You know, the reality is that most of the technologies that we need and that we use and can use could be used by so much, so many more people, if people would just really look at it and think about it, but, but you're right, they don't.   Mike Paciello ** 24:04 You know, it's, of course, raise a raise another good friend of mine. We both having in common. I work with him. I been down his office a few, more than few times, although his Boston office, anyway, I think he's, I'm not sure he's in Newton. He's in Newton. Yeah. Is he still in Newton? Okay. But anyway, it reminded me of something that happened in a similar vein, and that was several years ago. I was at a fast forward forward conference, future forward conference, and a company, EMC, who absorbed by Dell, I think, right, yes, where they all are. So there I was surprised that when that happened. But hey, yeah, yeah, I was surprised that compact bought depth, so that's okay, yeah, right. That HP bought count, right? That whole thing happened. But um, their chief science, chief scientist, I think he was a their CSO chief scientist, Doc. Came up and made this presentation. And basically the presentation was using voice recognition. They had been hired by the NSA. So it was a NSA right to use voice recognition in a way where they would recognize voices and then record those voices into it, out the output the transcript of that right text, text files, and feed them back to, you know, the NSA agents, right? So here's the funny part of that story goes up i i waited he gave his presentation. This is amazing technology, and what could it was like, 99% accurate in terms of not just recognizing American, English speaking people, but a number of different other languages, in dialects. And the guy who gave the presentation, I actually knew, because he had been a dec for many years. So in the Q and A Part I raised by hand. I got up there. He didn't recognize it a few years had gone by. And I said, you know, this is amazing technology. We could really use this in the field that I work in. And he said, Well, how's that? And I said, you know, voice recognition and outputting text would allow us to do now this is probably 2008 2009 somewhere in that area, would allow us to do real time, automated transcription for the Deaf, Captioning. And he looks at me and he he says, Do I know you? This is through a live audience. I said. I said, Yeah, Mark is it was. Mark said, So Mike gas yellow. He said, you're the only guy in town that I know that could turn a advanced, emerging technology into something for people with disabilities. I can't believe it. So that was, that was, but there was kind of the opposite. It was a technology they were focused on making this, you know, this technology available for, you know, government, obviously covert reasons that if they were using it and applying it in a good way for people with disabilities, man, we'd have been much faster, much further along or even today, right? I mean, it's being done, still not as good, not as good as that, as I saw. But that just goes to show you what, what commercial and government funding can do when it's applied properly?   Michael Hingson ** 27:41 Well, Dragon, naturally speaking, has certainly come a long way since the original Dragon Dictate. But there's still errors, there's still things, but it does get better, but I hear exactly what you're saying, and the reality is that we don't tend to think in broad enough strokes for a lot of the things that we do, which is so unfortunate,   Mike Paciello ** 28:03 yeah? I mean, I've had an old saying that I've walked around for a long time. I should have, I should make a baseball cap, whether something or T shirt. And it simply was, think accessibility, yeah, period. If, if, if we, organizations, people, designers, developers, architects, usability, people, QA, people. If everybody in the, you know, in the development life cycle was thinking about accessibility, or accessibility was integrated, when we say accessibility, we're talking about again, for users with disabilities, if that became part of, if not the functional catalyst, for technology. Man, we'd have been a lot further along in the quote, unquote value chains than we are today.   Michael Hingson ** 28:46 One of the big things at least, that Apple did do was they built voiceover into their operating system, so anybody who buys any Apple device today automatically has redundancy here, but access to accessibility, right? Which, which is really the way it ought to be. No offense to vispero and jaws, because they're they're able to fill the gap. But still, if Microsoft had truly devoted the time that they should have to narrate her at the beginning. We might see a different kind of an architecture today.   Mike Paciello ** 29:26 You know, I so I want to, by the way, the person that invented that wrote that code is Mike shabanik. That's his name I was thinking about. So Mike, if you're listening to this guy, just hi from two others. And if he's not, he should be, yeah, yeah, exactly right from two other mics. But so let me ask you this question, because I legitimately can't remember this, and have had a number of discussions with Mike about this. So VoiceOver is native to the US, right?   Michael Hingson ** 29:56 But no, well, no to to the to the to the. Products, but not just the US. No,   Mike Paciello ** 30:02 no, I said, OS, yes, it's native to OS, yeah, right. It's native that way, right? But doesn't it still use an off screen model for producing or, you know, translate the transformation of, you know, on screen to voice.   Michael Hingson ** 30:27 I'm not sure that's totally true. Go a little bit deeper into that for me.   Mike Paciello ** 30:34 Well, I mean, so NVDA and jaws use this off screen model, right, which is functionally, they grab, will they grab some content, or whatever it is, push it to this, you know, little black box, do all those translations, you know, do all the transformation, and then push it back so it's renderable to a screen reader. Okay, so that's this off screen model that is transparent to the users, although now you know you can get into it and and tweak it and work with it right, right? I recall when Mike was working on the original design of of nary, excuse me, a voiceover, and he had called me, and I said, Are you going to continue with the notion of an off screen model? And he said, Yeah, we are. And I said, Well, when you can build something that's more like what TV Raman has built into Emacs, and it works integral to the actual OS, purely native. Call me because then I'm interested in, but now that was, you know, 1520, years ago, right? I mean, how long has voiceover been around,   Michael Hingson ** 31:51 since 2007   Mike Paciello ** 31:54 right? So, yeah, 20 years ago, right? Just shy of 20 years, 18 years. So I don't know. I honestly don't know. I'm   Michael Hingson ** 32:02 not totally sure, but I believe that it is, but I can, you know, we'll have to, we'll have to look into that.   Mike Paciello ** 32:08 If anyone in the audience is out there looking at you, get to us before we find out. Let us we'll find out at the NFB   Michael Hingson ** 32:12 convention, because they're going to be a number of Apple people there. We can certainly ask, there   Mike Paciello ** 32:17 you go. That's right, for sure. James Craig is bound to be there. I can ask him and talk to him about that for sure. Yep, so anyway,   Michael Hingson ** 32:23 but I think, I think it's a very it's a valid point. And you know, the the issue is that, again, if done right and app developers are doing things right there, there needs to, there ought to be a way that every app has some level of accessibility that makes it more available. And the reality is, people, other than blind people use some of these technologies as well. So we're talking about voice input. You know, quadriplegics, for example, who can't operate a keyboard will use or a mouse can use, like a puff and zip stick to and and Dragon to interact with a computer and are successful at doing it. The reality is, there's a whole lot more opportunities out there than people think. Don't   Mike Paciello ** 33:11 I agree with that. I'm shaking my head up and down Mike and I'm telling you, there is, I mean, voice recognition alone. I can remember having a conversation with Tony vitality, one of the CO inventors of the deck talk. And that goes all the way back into the, you know, into the early 90s, about voice recognition and linguistics and what you know, and I know Kurzweil did a lot of working with Terry right on voice utterances and things like that. Yeah, yeah. There's, there's a wide open window of opportunity there for study and research that could easily be improved. And as you said, and this is the point, it doesn't just improve the lives of the blind or low vision. It improves the lives of a number of different types of Persona, disability persona types, but it would certainly create a pathway, a very wide path, for individuals, users without disabilities, in a number of different life scenarios.   Michael Hingson ** 34:10 Yeah, and it's amazing how little sometimes that's done. I had the pleasure a few years ago of driving a Tesla down Interstate 15 out here in California. Glad I wasn't there. You bigot, you know, the co pilot system worked. Yeah, you know, I just kept my hands on the wheel so I didn't very much, right? Not have any accidents. Back off now it worked out really well, but, but here's what's really interesting in that same vehicle, and it's something that that I find all too often is is the case if I were a passenger sitting in the front seat, there's so much that I as a passenger don't have access to that other passenger. Do radios now are mostly touchscreen right, which means and they don't build in the features that would make the touchscreen system, which they could do, accessible. The Tesla vehicle is incredibly inaccessible. And there's for a guy who's so innovative, there's no reason for that to be that way. And again, I submit that if they truly make the product so a blind person could use it. Think of how much more a sighted person who doesn't have to take their eyes off the road could use the same technologies.   Mike Paciello ** 35:35 You know, Mike, again, you and I are on the same page. I mean, imagine these guys are supposed to be creative and imaginative and forward thinking, right? Could you? Can you imagine a better tagline than something along the lines of Tesla, so user friendly that a blind person can drive it? Yeah? I mean this is, have you heard or seen, you know, metaphorically speaking, or that's okay, a an advertisement or PR done by any, any company, because they're all, all the way across the board, that hasn't featured what it can do to enhance lives of people with disabilities. Where it wasn't a hit. I mean, literally, it was, yeah, you see these commercials played over and over to Apple, Microsoft, Emma, I see McDonald's, Walmart. I mean, I could just name, name the one after another. Really, really outstanding. Salesforce has done it. Just incredible. They would do it, yeah. I mean, there is there any more human centric message than saying, Look what we've built and designed we're releasing to the masses and everyone, anyone, regardless of ability, can use it. Yeah, that, to me, is that's, I agree that's a good route, right for marketing and PR, good,   Michael Hingson ** 37:03 yeah. And yet they don't, you know, I see commercials like about one of the one of the eye injections, or whatever Bobby is, Mo or whatever it is. And at the beginning, the woman says, I think I'm losing sight of the world around me. You know that's all about, right? It's eyesight and nothing else. And I appreciate, I'm all for people keeping their eyesight and doing what's necessary. But unfortunately, all too often, we do that at the detriment of of other people, which is so unfortunate.   Mike Paciello ** 37:39 Yeah, you know again, not to, not to get off the subject, but one of my favorite books is rethinking competitive advantage, by Ram Sharon. I don't know if you know know him, but the guy is one of my heroes in terms of just vision and Business and Technology. And in this, this book, he wrote this a couple of years ago. He said this one this is his first rule of competition in the digital age. The number one rule was simply this, a personalized consumer experience, key to exponential growth. That's exactly you and I are talking about personally. I want to see interfaces adapt to users, rather than what we have today, which is users having to adapt to the interface.   Michael Hingson ** 38:32 Yeah, and it would make so much sense to do so. I hope somebody out there is listening and will maybe take some of this to heart, because if they do it right, they can have a huge market in no time at all, just because they show they care. You know, Nielsen Company did a survey back in 2016 where they looked at a variety of companies and consumers and so on. And if I recall the numbers right, they decided that people with disabilities are 35% more likely to continue to work with and shop, for example, at companies that really do what they can to make their websites and access to their products accessible, as opposed to not. And that's that's telling. It's so very telling. But we don't see people talking about that nearly like we should   Mike Paciello ** 39:20 you talk about a business value proposition. There is bullet proof that where you are leaving money on the table, yep, and a lot of it, yeah, exactly. We're not talking about 1000s or hundreds of 1000s. We're talking about billions and trillions, in some instances, not an exaggeration by any stretch of the imagination, very, very simple math. I had this conversation a couple years ago with the CEO of Pearson. At that time, he's retired, but, you know, I told him, if you spent $1 for every person that it was in the world with. Disability, you're, you're, you're talking about 1/4 of the population, right? It's simple math, simple math,   Michael Hingson ** 40:08 but people still won't do it. I mean, we taught you to mention section 508, before with the whole issue of web access, how much of the government has really made their websites accessible, even though it's the law?   Mike Paciello ** 40:19 Yeah, three years, three or four years ago, they did a study, and they found out that the good that every federal agency, most of the federal agencies, were not even keeping up thinking with reporting of the status, of where they were, and yet that was written right into the five way law. They were mandated to do it, and they still did do   Michael Hingson ** 40:37 it. We haven't, you know, the whole Americans with Disabilities Act. Finally, the Department of Justice said that the internet is a place of business, but still, it's not written in the law. And of course, we only see about 3% of all websites that tend to have any level of access. And there's no reason for that. It's not that magical. And again, I go back to what do we do to get schools and those who teach people how to code to understand the value of putting in accessibility right from the outset?   Mike Paciello ** 41:10 Yeah, no, I totally agree with you. I think this is what Kate sanka is trying to do with with Teach access. In fact, you know, again, my company, TPG was one of the founding companies have teach access back again, 10 years ago, when it first started. But that's where it starts. I mean, they're, they're pretty much focused on post secondary, university education, but I could tell you on a personal level, I was speaking at my kids grade school, elementary school, because they were already using laptops and computers back then it starts. Then you've got to build a mindset. You've got to build it we you've heard about the accessibility, maturity models coming out of the W, 3c, and in I, double AP. What that speaks to fundamentally, is building a culture within your corporate organization that is think accessibility as a think accessibility mindset, that it is woven into the fiber of every business line, in every technology, software development life cycle, all of the contributors at that level, from A to Z. But if you don't build it into the culture, it's not going to happen. So I would love to see a lot more being done at that level. But yeah, it's, it's, it's a, it's a hero. Yeah,   Michael Hingson ** 42:34 we're, we're left out of the conversation so much. Yeah, yeah, totally. So you, you sold TPG, and you then formed, or you had web able and then able Docs.   Mike Paciello ** 42:48 So what web able came out was a carve out, one of two carve outs that I had from when I sold TPG. The other was open access technologies, which which eventually was sold to another accessibility company primarily focused on making documentation accessible to meet the WCAG and other standards requirements and web able I carved out. It's been a kind of a hobby of mine now, for since I sold TPG, I'm still working on the back end, ironically, from the get go, so we're talking, you know, again, eight years ago, I had built machine learning and AI into it. From then back then, I did so that what it does is it very simply, goes out and collects 1000s and 1000s of articles as it relates to technology, people with disabilities, and then cleans them up and post them to web able.com I've got a lot more playing for it, but that's in a nutshell. That's what it does. And I don't we do some we do some QA review to make sure that the cleanup in terms of accessibility and the articles are are properly formatted and are accessible. We use the web aim API, but yeah, works like magic. Works like clockwork, and that's got aI uses IBM Watson AI built into it. Yeah, enable docs was abledocs was, how should I say this in a nice way, abledocs was a slight excursion off of my main route. It can work out. I wish it had. It had a lot of potential, much like open access technologies, but they both suffered from owners who really, really not including myself, who just didn't have good vision and in lack humility,   Michael Hingson ** 44:43 yeah. How's that? There you go. Well, so not to go political or anything, but AI in general is interesting, and I know that there have been a lot of debates over the last few years about artificial. Intelligence and helping to make websites accessible. There are several companies like AudioEye, user way, accessibe and so on that to one degree or another, use AI. What? What? So in general, what do you think about AI and how it's going to help deal with or not, the whole issue of disabilities and web access,   Mike Paciello ** 45:22 yeah, and we're going to set aside Neil Jacobs thoughts on how he sees it in the future, right? Although I have to tell you, he gave me some things to think about, so we'll just set that to to the side. So I think what AI offers today is something that I thought right away when it started to see the, you know, the accessibes, the user ways, the audio, eyes, and all the other companies kind of delving into it, I always saw potential to how's this remediate a fundamental problem or challenge, let's not call it a problem, a challenge that we were otherwise seeing in the professional services side of that equation around web accessibility, right? So you get experts who use validation tools and other tools, who know about code. Could go in and they know and they use usability, they use user testing, and they go in and they can tell you what you need to do to make your digital properties right, usable and accessible. People with disabilities, all well and good. That's great. And believe me, I had some of the best people, if not the best people in the world, work for me at one time. However, there are a couple of things it could not do in it's never going to do. Number one, first and foremost, from my perspective, it can't scale. It cannot scale. You can do some things at, you know, in a large way. For example, if, if a company is using some sort of, you know, CMS content management system in which their entire sites, you know, all their sites, all their digital properties, you know, are woven into templates, and those templates are remediated. So that cuts down a little bit on the work. But if you go into companies now, it's not like they're limited to two or three templates. Now they've got, you know, department upon department upon department, everybody's got a different template. So even those are becoming very vos, very verbose and very plentiful. So accessibility as a manual effort doesn't really scale well. And if it does, even if it could, it's not fast enough, right? So that's what AI does, AI, coupled with automation, speeds up that process and delivers a much wider enterprise level solution. Now again, AI automation is not, is not a whole, is not a holistic science. You know, it's not a silver bullet. David Marathi likes to use the term, what is he? He likes the gold standard. Well, from his perspective, and by the way, David Marathi is CEO of audio. Eye is a combination of automation AI in expert analysis, along with the use of the integration of user testing and by user testing, it's not just personas, but it's also compatibility with the assistive technologies that people with disabilities use. Now, when you do that, you've got something that you could pattern after a standard software development life cycle, environment in which you integrate all of these things. So if you got a tool, you integrate it there. If you've got, you know, a digital accessibility platform which does all this automation, AI, right, which, again, this is the this is a forester foresters take on the the the daps, as they calls it. And not really crazy about that, but that's what they are. Digital Accessibility platforms. It allows us to scale and scale at costs that are much lower, at speeds that are much faster, and it's just a matter of like any QA, you've got to check your work, and you've got it, you can't count on that automation being absolute. We know for a fact that right now, at best, we're going to be able to get 35 to 40% accuracy, some claim, larger different areas. I'm still not convinced of that, but the fact of the matter is, it's like anything else. Technology gets better as it goes, and we'll see improvements over time periods.   Michael Hingson ** 49:49 So here's here's my thought, yeah, let's say you use AI in one of the products that's out there. And I. You go to a website and you include it, and it reasonably well makes the website 50% more usable and accessible than it was before. I'm just, I just threw out that number. I know it's random. Go ahead, Yep, yeah, but let's say it does that. The reality is that means that it's 50% that the web developers, the web coders, don't have to do because something else is dealing with it. But unfortunately, their mentality is not to want to deal with that because they also fear it. But, you know, I remember back in the mid 1980s I started a company because I went off and tried to find a job and couldn't find one. So I started a company with a couple of other people, where we sold early PC based CAD systems to architects, right? And we had AutoCAD versus CAD. Another one called point line, which was a three dimensional system using a y cap solid modeling board that took up two slots in your PC. So it didn't work with all PCs because we didn't have enough slots. But anyway, right, right, right. But anyway, when I brought architects in and we talked about what it did and we showed them, many of them said, I'll never use that. And I said, why? Well, it does work, and that's not the question. But the issue is, we charge by the time, and so we take months to sometimes create designs and projects, right? And so we can't lose that revenue. I said, you're looking at it all wrong. Think about it this way, somebody gives you a job, you come back and you put it in the CAD system. You go through all the iterations it takes, let's just say, two weeks. Then you call your customer in. You use point line, and you can do a three dimensional walk through and fly through. You can even let them look out the window and see what there is and all that they want to make changes. They tell you the changes. You go off and you make the changes. And two weeks later, now it's a month, you give them their finished product, all the designs, all the plots and all that, all done, and you charge them exactly the same price you were going to charge them before. Now you're not charging for your time, you're charging for your expertise, right? And I think that same model still holds true that the technology, I think most people will agree that it is not perfect, but there are a lot of things that it can do. Because the reality is, the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, are all things that can be defined with computer code, whether it necessarily does it all well with AI or not, is another story. But if it does it to a decent fraction, it makes all the difference in terms of what you're able to do and how quickly you can do   Mike Paciello ** 52:52 it. Yeah, I can argue with that at all. I think any time that we can make our jobs a little bit easier so that we can focus where we should be focused. In this case, as you said, the expertise side of it, right to fix those complicated scenarios or situations that require a hands on surgical like Right? Expertise, you can do that now. You've got more hours more time because it's been saved. The only thing I would say, Mike, about what, what you just said, is that there with that, with that mindset, okay, comes responsibility. Oh, yeah, in this is where I think in everybody that knows anything about this environment, you and I have an intimate understanding of this. The whole overlay discussion is the biggest problem with what happened was less about the technology and more about what claims are being made. Yeah, the technology could do which you could not do in, in some cases, could never do, or would never, would never do, well, right? So if you create, and I would submit this is true in as a fundamental principle, if you create a technology of any kind, you must, in truth, inform your clients of of what it can and cannot do so they understand the absolute value to them, because the last thing you want, because, again, we live in a, unfortunately, a very litigious world. Right soon as there's   Michael Hingson ** 54:49 a mistake couldn't happen,   Mike Paciello ** 54:51 they'll go right after you. So now you know, and again, I don't I'm not necessarily just blaming the ambulance chasers of the world. World. I was talking to an NFP lawyer today. He referred to them in a different name, and I can't remember well, I never heard the expression before, but that's what he meant, right? Yeah, it's the salesman and the product managers and the marketing people themselves, who are were not themselves, to your point, properly trained, properly educated, right? It can't be done, what clearly could not be said, what should or should not be said, right? And then you got lawyers writing things all over the place. So, yeah, yeah. So, so I look people knew when I made the decision to come to audio eye that it was a make or break scenario for me, or at least that's what they thought in my mindset. It always, has always been, that I see incredible possibilities as you do or technology, it just has to be handled responsibly.   Michael Hingson ** 55:56 Do you think that the companies are getting better and smarter about what they portray about their products than they than they were three and four and five years ago.   Mike Paciello ** 56:08 Okay, look, I sat in and chaired a meeting with the NFB on this whole thing. And without a doubt, they're getting smarter. But it took not just a stick, you know, but, but these large lawsuits to get them to change their thinking, to see, you know, where they where they were wrong, and, yeah, things are much better. There's still some issues out there. I both know it that's going to happen, that happens in every industry,   Michael Hingson ** 56:42 but there are improvements. It is getting better, and people are getting smarter, and that's where an organization like the NFB really does need to become more involved than in a sense, they are. They took some pretty drastic steps with some of the companies, and I think that they cut off their nose, despite their face as well, and that didn't help. So I think there are things that need to be done all the way around, but I do see that progress is being made too. I totally   Mike Paciello ** 57:11 agree, and in fact, I'm working with them right now. We're going to start working on the California Accessibility Act again. I'm really looking forward to working with the NFB, the DRC and Imperato over there and his team in the disability rights consortium, consortium with disability rights. What DRC coalition, coalition in in California. I can't wait to do that. We tried last year. We got stopped short. It got tabled, but I feel very good about where we're going this year. So that's, that's my that's, that is my focus right now. And I'm glad I'm going to be able to work with the NFB to be able to do that. Yeah, well, I, I really do hope that it passes. We've seen other states. We've seen some states pass some good legislation, and hopefully we will continue to see some of that go on. Yeah, Colorado has done a great job. Colorado sent a great job. I think they've done it. I really like what's being done with the EAA, even though it's in Europe, and some of the things that are going there, Susanna, Lauren and I had some great discussions. I think she is has been a leader of a Yeoman effort at that level. So we'll see. Let's, let's, I mean, there's still time out here. I guess I really would like to retire,   Michael Hingson ** 58:28 but I know the feeling well, but I can't afford to yet, so I'll just keep speaking and all that well, Mike, this has been wonderful. I really appreciate you taking an hour and coming on, and at least neither of us is putting up with any kind of snow right now, but later in the year we'll see more of that.   Mike Paciello ** 58:45 Yeah, well, maybe you will. We don't get snow down. I have. We've gotten maybe 25 flakes in North Carolina since I've been here.   Michael Hingson ** 58:53 Yeah, you don't get a lot of snow. We don't hear we don't really get it here, around us, up in the mountains, the ski resorts get it, but I'm out in a valley, so we don't, yeah,   Mike Paciello ** 59:02 yeah, no. I love it. I love this is golfing weather.   Michael Hingson ** 59:05 There you go. If people want to reach out to you, how do they do that?   Mike Paciello ** 59:11 There's a couple of ways. Certainly get in touch with me at AudioEye. It's michael.paciello@audioeye.com   Michael Hingson ** 59:17 B, A, C, I, E, L, L, O,   Mike Paciello ** 59:18 that's correct. Thank you for that.

 ​“A lot of creativity stems from lack of access — born outta having less. You have less, so you have to think about how to do more — that's what's Black design is about.” Maurice Cherry is a designer, strategist, and an important voice in the history of Black design — best known as the creator and host of Revision Path, an award-winning podcast that's spotlighted over 550 Black designers, developers, artists, and digital thinkers — and became the first podcast inducted into the Smithsonian's National Museum of African American History and Culture. Born in Selma, Alabama, Maurice took anything but the traditional path expected of him. Raised on writing and tech - in magazines, the library and the radio - he studied math at Morehouse, and hustled his way into the creative industry - from Limewire to HTML. Maurice views design as a lens into cultural storytelling, and in the importance of Black design to understand a big part of the American design experience. Maurice is thoughtful, funny, and curious - his work helping shape the future of design. But you'll also enjoy how we traded hometown memories and podcast war stories.

What happens when you risk a profitable side hustle for the chance to scale? Maurice Contreras, the founder of Volcanica coffee, spent 15 years building a side hustle and then bet a big portion of his retirement savings and personal funds (plus zero-interest credit cards) to build a 14,000 sq ft roastery after his son pushed him to think bigger. Host Andrea Marquez walks you through how Maurice sketched a full business plan on his flight home from a Costa Rican coffee farm, taught himself HTML, CSS, and SEO to turn a freezer-stocked garage into a booming e-commerce hub, and calculated every penny before deciding that real growth meant risking the comfort of what he'd already built. If you've ever wondered whether comfort is the enemy of growth, Maurice's story proves that the greatest leaps often come when you risk what you've already earned.Got a bold leap of your own? Share it with us in an Apple Podcasts review, Spotify comment, or email us at thisissmallbusiness@amazon.com – you might hear it in a future episode.In this episode, you'll hear: (02:19) Can a seventh-grader selling leather belts foreshadow a lifetime of entrepreneurship? Maurice made his first profit long before college.(04:04) Is marketing billion-dollar brands enough? After two decades in wireless marketing, Maurice felt the pull to build something of his own.(05:28) Can a single trip redefine your career? A Costa Rican coffee-farm visit led Maurice to draft a full business plan on his flight home.(07:19) How do you transform a freezer-stocked garage into an online empire? Maurice taught himself HTML, CSS, and SEO to launch Volcanica's e-commerce hub.(12:14) What tells you it's time to quit your day job? Hitting $100K in net profit – and an office relocation – gave Maurice the push to quit his day job.(15:43) What justifies a nine-month payback on an investment? His son's roasting-plant proposal and razor-sharp profit models made the risk unavoidable.(21:56) How do you juggle rapid growth, family life, and massive overhead? Maurice leveraged retirement funds, credit offers, and bold vision to scale at lightning speed.(25:03) Can calculated risk become your superpower? Maurice reflects on why deep research, resilience, and embracing discomfort are the keys to entrepreneurial growth.

Ensuite, je voudrais partager mon avis sur votre récent podcast sur l'échec que j'ai trouvé très intéressant. Dernièrement, je me suis rendu compte à quel point les idées reçues des autres peuvent fausser notre regard sur les mots et sur nous-mêmes. Je suis au chômage depuis deux ans et quand j'ai perdu mon travail, tout le monde a exprimé une sorte de deuil pour moi, parce qu'il était bien renuméré, avec beaucoup de bonus, etc. Et ça me fait un peu réfléchir à quel point les gens sont apparemment obsédés par l'argent, par la stabilité économique. Pourtant, la plupart poursuivent des valeurs qui ne sont pas vraiment les leurs, comme acheter une maison, avoir un bon travail, etc. Et évidemment, c'est possible que, quand on échoue, on devrait d'abord réfléchir si c'était vraiment un échec ou juste une tentative de se découvrir soi-même et de chercher ce qu'on veut vraiment de la vie. A priori, de ce que les gens vont chercher habituellement. Merci pour votre attention. Hélène: [2:02] Merci pour ce message, Francesco. Très sage, je pense. On voit que tu as pris beaucoup de recul sur ce qui t'est arrivé. Et c'est vrai que ça pose une question un peu taboue, un peu difficile à explorer parce que ça remet beaucoup de choses en question. Et donc, je suis très contente que ce message t'ait donné l'idée qu'on parle de ça aujourd'hui. Judith: [2:26] Eh bien, du coup, c'est parti. Et encore merci Francesco pour ton message.

There's a module for that. Module name/project name: Shortcode Brief history How old: created in Sep 2010 by Dénes Szabó (denes.szabo) of Tag1 Versions available: 2.0.3, which supports ^9.3 ^10 ^11 Maintainership Security coverage Test coverage Number of open issues: 30 open issues, 3 of which are bugs against the current branch Usage stats: 13,260 sites (almost 70% are D7 however) Module features and usage For anyone not familiar with WordPress short codes, the documentation describes them as macros, and most often they are used for inserting elements into content such as image galleries, videos, playlists, and more. Shortcodes can also wrap content, however, and it's possible to nest shortcodes as well. Drupal typically solves the problems addressed by shortcodes using custom HTML elements, as implemented in the media ecosystem, or with the Entity Embed module. I think that shortcodes may also be useful in places where Drupal might also rely on tokens, albeit with an additional module like Token Filter. Gutenberg includes a Shortcode block that can be used as a flexible way to add a variety of elements into a post's content. I think Shortcodes are an interesting paradigm because they're really a tool for power users. Instead of providing a UI to browse and choose elements for something like an image gallery, they allow a savvy editor to quickly write a tag that will construct a gallery using numerical ID values. I don't think this is a tool that most Drupal sites will need, but it could be a really good way for experienced WordPress teams to feel more at home when starting to work with Drupal.

This show has been flagged as Explicit by the host. Introduction On 2025-06-19 Ken Fallon did a show, number 4404 , responding to Kevie's show 4398 , which came out on 2025-06-11. Kevie was using a Bash pipeline to find the latest episode in an RSS feed, and download it. He used grep to parse the XML of the feed. Ken's response was to suggest the use of xmlstarlet to parse the XML because such a complex structured format as XML cannot reliably be parsed without a program that "understands" the intricacies of the format's structure. The same applies to other complex formats such as HTML, YAML and JSON. In his show Ken presented a Bash script which dealt with this problem and that of the ordering of episodes in the feed. He asked how others would write such a script, and thus I was motivated to produce this response to his response! Alternative script My script is a remodelling of Ken's, not a completely different solution. It contains a few alternative ways of doing what Ken did, and a reordering of the parts of his original.

Note dell'episodio What Italians Really Think About Their Politics - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BT7IvwSEUHE&t=7s Oggi si inizia dai banchi di scuola. Ma attenzione! Vietati i cellulari! Cosa ne pensate? Matteo e Raffaele ne parlano, e cercano di capire come funzionera'. Ma abbiamo proprio bisogno di avere sempre con noi il cellulare, e soprattutto, serve agli studenti? Il turista anonimo continua a colpire. Questa volta si sono seduti su una sedia. Quindi? Poveri turisti non possono nemmeno riposarsi un attimo tra un monumento ed un altro? Beh certo, possono riposarsi, ma non su una sedia di... Finiamo tutti a mare! Quest'anno le coste italiane sono apparentemente molto pulite, e c'e' una regione che ha vinto per essere la regione con il mare piu' pulito! Curiosi? Vi possiamo dare un indizio: Confina con Campania e Calabria. Indovinato? Trascrizione Raffaele: [0:23] Buongiorno Matteo. Matteo: [0:25] Buongiorno, come va? Raffaele: [0:28] Settimana scorsa avevo il fiatone perché avevo fatto le scale a piedi, attività fisica. Questa settimana ho il fiatone stando fermo. Matteo: [0:39] No, è arrivato il caldo. Raffaele: [0:42] 31 gradi, sopra il 60 per cento di umidità: si suda da fermi, si soffre maledettamente. Matteo: [0:54] Mannaggia. Speriamo che questa cosa non continui. Raffaele: [0:57] Sei andato via giusto in tempo. Il problema che mi pongo io, Matteo, è che se a giugno, a metà giugno, fa così caldo e si soffre così tanto, cosa succede a luglio e agosto? Cioè dove andiamo a finire? Matteo: [1:16] E dove andiamo a finire? Raffaele: [1:18] E pensa che ci sta ancora chi è sui banchi di scuola a studiare con questo caldo. Matteo: [1:29] La vita in Italia in questo momento è calda. Raffaele: [1:32] È molto molto calda. Tu, Matteo, ricordi quando hai fatto l'esame di maturità? La data. Matteo: [1:41] Era giugno, le prime due settimane di giugno. Raffaele: [1:45] Grosso modo di questi tempi. (Sì sì.) Io invece ebbi la sfortuna... il mio cognome inizia con la T, quando si selezionò la lettera per decidere da dove iniziare per fare gli esami orali, giustamente uscì proprio la A. Estratta a sorte la A, e quindi io ero l'ultimo di tutta la classe a fare l'esame. L'ho fatto, se non ricordo male, il 4 luglio. E sono andato a fare l'esame di maturità, non so se te l'ho mai raccontato, col costumino. Cioè il costume e sopra il pantalone: finito l'esame, la prova orale dell'esame di maturità, siamo andati direttamente al mare a festeggiare. Ma si può studiare con questo caldo? Si può stare sui libri a scuola con questo caldo? Matteo: [2:35] No, sicuramente no. Fortunatamente tutte le scuole, a parte gli esami, sono chiuse e riapriranno a settembre. Raffaele: [2:47] Sì, generalmente chiudono intorno al 10 giugno, ma già molto prima ci sono tanti studenti che, finite le interrogazioni, finiti i test, i compiti in classe, come si chiamano, lasciano la scuola generalmente verso la fine di maggio. E ha senso proprio per questo discorso del caldo, considera che non siamo neanche ancora in estate ma già fa così caldo. Quando rientreranno a scuola gli studenti, probabilmente troveranno una novità. Bello o brutta? Non lo so, bisogna chiederlo a loro. Matteo: [3:26] Ah, e che novità troveranno? Poveri studenti, poveri studenti. Raffaele: [3:31] Poveri. A partire da settembre 2025 il cellulare in classe sarà vietato anche agli studenti delle scuole superiori. Matteo: [3:42] E questa è una cosa interessante, è un approccio molto... non dittatoriale, mi sembra un po'... dittatoriale mi sembra troppo, però non me lo aspettavo. Raffaele: [3:55] È un approccio forte, no? È stato fatto l'esperimento con le scuole inferiori, chiamiamole così, quindi le scuole elementari, le scuole medie, e poi adesso si è deciso di espandere questo divieto alle scuole superiori. Alle scuole elementari è stato facilissimo: forse nessun bambino alle scuole elementari ha il cellulare. Anzi mi correggo: io conosco tanti bambini che hanno il cellulare in quarta o quinta elementare ma non lo portano proprio a scuola. Alle medie già comincia ad essere complicato perché un po' tutti hanno il cellulare. Al liceo, alle scuole superiori sarà complicato far rispettare questo divieto. Matteo: [4:44] È una cosa interessante anche perché sto cercando di pensare, cercando di empatizzare il più possibile con i ragazzi e i genitori, per quanto posso ovviamente, e non trovo un motivo per andare contro questa decisione: è giusto che tu non puoi usare il cellulare in classe. Raffaele: [5:12] Eh, siamo sempre nel discorso del libero arbitrio, no? In teoria gli studenti dovrebbero capire che non è il caso di utilizzare il cellulare durante la lezione. Spieghiamo un attimo bene come funziona a partire da settembre: praticamente all'ingresso in classe ci sarà una cassettina oppure si utilizzerà semplicemente il cassetto della cattedra dell'insegnante. E ogni studente che entra in classe, oppure quando entra il professore, i ragazzi devono consegnare il cellulare, mettere il cellulare in questa cassettina o nel cassetto, in modalità non disturbare, di modo che vibrazioni e suonerie non diano fastidio. E recuperare il cellulare in teoria alla fine della giornata ma in pratica quando il professore uscirà di classe, i ragazzi andranno a controllarsi le notifiche, salvo poi rimettere il cellulare a posto quando entra il professore dell'ora successiva. Ha senso così? Cioè alla fine è solo un togliere il cellulare agli alunni durante la lezione? Matteo: [6:27] Allora la questione è che abbiamo a che fare con ragazzi giovani che per una questione anche fisica hanno dei seri problemi a comportarsi in maniera logica. Perché si stanno ancora sviluppando e quindi hanno bisogno di avere a che fare con delle regole e con dei divieti, secondo me. Cioè non puoi basarti sempre e solo sulla logicità, e il ragionamento che dovrebbero fare gli studenti, che sono giovani. Raffaele: [7:14] Eh lo so, ma dirgli proprio "lasciate il cellulare qua, spegnete il cellulare, consegnatelo"... Potresti anche dire "spegnetelo però tenetelo voi, ci fidiamo." Perché poi alla fine è quello un po' il discorso. Tu dici: " Non mi fido." Matteo: [7:28] No, il discorso è proprio quello, il discorso è: si può arrivare a quello dopo una... è un po' come nelle disintossicazioni forti, tu mi insegni... No anche tu, se tu vuoi prendere meno caffè, sei arrivato in una situazione in cui ne stai prendendo tanto, non è che inizi a prenderne di meno. Vai un po' drastico i primi periodi. Raffaele: [7:55] Eh non lo so, non lo so, ci sono diversi approcci, per questo non è così semplice la questione, perché tu dici: il cellulare in classe è un male, quindi la soluzione è togliamo il cellulare. Matteo: [8:11] Ma in realtà il cellulare in classe è un male. Raffaele: [8:14] Dipende da cosa ci fai. Matteo: [8:16] Ma in questo momento lasciando stare il "vorrei che fosse", però se eliminiamo il "come vorrei che fosse la classe ideale oggi", il cellulare e l'uso del cellulare in classe distrae solamente. Raffaele: [8:40] Allora voglio chiarire un po' la mia posizione: io fondamentalmente sono d'accordo con te, nel senso che sono d'accordo che dire ad un tredicenne "tieni il cellulare acceso sul banco durante la lezione" è un invito a nozze per lui. E invece di sentirsi il professore di storia e filosofia, aprirà TikTok e si guarderà i video silenziosamente facendo finta di seguire. Quindi diciamo che è un modo per togliere questa distrazione. Idealmente non sarebbe necessario. Idealmente la lezione dovrebbe essere coinvolgente, e ti dirò di più, dovrebbe trovare un modo per coinvolgere i ragazzi attivamente. E perché non coinvolgere anche con l'uso del cellulare? Cioè per me la scuola dovrebbe andare verso una digitalizzazione massiccia, forte, soprattutto in Italia dove invece su questo siamo un po' indietro. Non ci sono abbastanza computer per tutti gli allievi, non ci sono i tablet per tutti e consentire l'utilizzo del cellulare, in maniera coordinata con l'insegnante eh, attenzione... può essere invece un modo per sopperire a questa mancanza. Idealmente, eh... Matteo: [10:03] Sono d'accordo con te. Idealmente. Ma poi basta che... ricordo le mie lezioni di informatica, e non so se tu hai mai fatto lezioni in aula computer in cui c'erano questi grandi computer, dietro i quali... erano così grandi che ti potevi nascondere dietro il monitor. E lo studente, il suo primo obiettivo quando... non il suo primo obiettivo nel senso che si sveglia e pensa che vuole fare questo.... Ma il cervello ha costanti, dà costanti impulsi per distrarti, sempre. E al primo momento noi, anche senza cellulari, perché entrambi abbiamo fatto i nostri studi durante un periodo in cui non c'era proprio il cellulare... Raffaele: [10:58] Usciva, ti dico la verità, si mandavano gli sms. Matteo: [11:01] Sì, vabbè, però, insomma, era così, non... oltretutto era vietato, non potevi metterti col cellulare sul banco. Raffaele: [11:15] Però mi ricordo che già all'ultimo anno di liceo noi avevamo quasi tutti il cellulare e ci mandavamo i messaggini, quindi già si presentava il problema. Non potevi, chiaro che non potevi, però nessuno ti sequestrava nulla. Matteo: [11:28] Eh no, però la questione è che adesso non solo puoi mandare messaggini ma per esempio puoi compromettere un compito in classe, certo probabilmente ci saranno delle metodologie per i quali se c'è il compito in classe il cellulare viene tolto o comunque viene spento o non lo so. Però già la maggior parte degli studenti è ignorante... Ma buttiamoli proprio i cellulari... Cioè secondo me il cellulare genericamente dovrebbe essere iniziato ad usare a 20 anni, perché crea una serie di problemi. A meno che non si inizi a scuola a fare educazione digitale, che può essere anche fatta con carta e penna, però ti iniziano ad educare a come usare i social, come comportarsi, cosa fare, cosa non fare, cosa evitare. Raffaele: [12:31] E qui convergiamo, Matteo: hai detto una cosa bellissima, esattamente quello che proporrei di fare io, perché il problema secondo me non è la distrazione del cellulare sul banco. Certo le elimini, non hai più la distrazione. Ma non educhi a gestire il cellulare, e secondo me il problema di tanti ragazzi di oggi è proprio quello. Pensa che la proposta successiva di questo governo è: niente social media sotto i 15 anni. E di questo poi ne riparliamo magari in un'altra puntata. Però è per dire che secondo me anche questo divieto non è per non far distrarre gli studenti, è per evitare che magari anche gli episodi di bullismo in classe vengano ripresi con i cellulari, poi questi video girino nelle chat, sui social media e creino problemi poi giganteschi. Il problema è proprio quello. Il problema è cosa ci fanno i ragazzi col cellulare. E quindi dovrebbero essere educati all'utilizzo consapevole del cellulare. Secondo me a partire dalla scuola, quindi non sequestrando i cellulari, ma insegnando come usare i cellulari in maniera utile e non fare danni con i cellulari. E poi chiaramente c'è l'altra faccia della medaglia, ovvero una volta usciti da scuola non è che "cellulare libero per tutti, tutta la giornata". Perché attualmente è così, no? La scuola dice "vi vieto il cellulare a scuola, a casa decideranno i genitori, fate quello che volete." Il problema è poi che in questa altra metà della giornata, anche i genitori, anche la famiglia deve continuare con questa educazione all'utilizzo della tecnologia. Matteo: [14:19] Sì sì sì sì, purtroppo l'educazione è un grande problema. Raffaele: [14:33] Dove eravamo rimasti? Ma inteso settimana scorsa? A Roma con i turisti che si rubavano le statue e le basi delle colonne: è successo di nuovo? Non dirmi che è successo di nuovo... Matteo: [14:49] È successo, più o meno. Niente monopattini, niente basi di colonne, ma a quanto pare dei turisti hanno fatto un guaio. Raffaele: [14:59] Un guaio bello grosso e bello caro, molto caro. Parliamo ancora di comportamenti sbagliati nei musei. Questa volta siamo a Verona, un museo che si chiama Palazzo Maffei, che ospita delle opere d'arte. In particolare un'opera d'arte di un artista contemporaneo italiano che si chiama Nicola Bolla, che ha riprodotto una sedia ispirata a uno dei quadri più famosi di Van Gogh. E l'ha riprodotta totalmente fatta di cristallo e Swarovski, quindi uno degli oggetti più fragili per definizione. Raffaele: [15:48] Ebbene, durante una visita a questo museo, una coppia quasi anziana, adesso non sappiamo molti dati, vediamo soltanto le immagini dei video di sorveglianza. Questa coppia di signori anziani, aspetta l'uscita della guardia poi si avvicina furtivamente alla sedia, che si chiama proprio "la sedia di Van Gogh". Fin lì tutto bene, puoi avvicinarti, puoi fare le tue foto. Solo che a un certo punto lui si china e si siede, si appoggia sull'opera d'arte. Adesso, secondo te: è fatta di cristallo, come può andare a finire? (Malissimo. In frantumi.) Esatto. La sedia si è immediatamente spaccata. E, tu dirai: i due mortificati avranno informato la guardia che stava poco distante in qualche altra sala. "Guardate, è successo questo, non volevo, l'ho urtata e si è rotta." Invece i furbastri sono scappati via, hanno fatto finta di nulla, hanno lasciato il museo e si sono dileguati. Le guardie del museo si sono accorte del danno troppo tardi, perché sono uscite dal museo per provare a rintracciare i colpevoli ma non li hanno potuti trovare. E quindi il museo ha fatto una denuncia contro ignoti, si dice in questo caso: è una cosa che è possibile fare quando non sai chi ha fatto il danno, il furto, fai una denuncia contro ignoti. E i carabinieri in questo caso si sono attivati, hanno preso la situazione molto seriamente, dal video sono riconoscibili in volto i due, si vede per bene l'abbigliamento, gli oggetti che portano con sé. E quindi per adesso non l'hanno trovati, ma chissà che non li troveranno a breve. Matteo: [17:55] Beh, ci sono spera... speriamo, ma non tanto per una questione di, come dire: "Voglio punirli". Però non vorrei che iniziasse questo nuovo sport di "fa il danno e poi scappa". Raffaele: [18:15] Sì, no, non va bene. Il danno, tra l'altro, la sedia vale tra i 15.000 e i 50.000 euro, quindi non parliamo di milioni di euro, però comunque è un danno non da poco. E hanno contattato l'artista: fortunatamente l'artista, dopo aver constatato i danni ha detto "ok, sì, la possiamo sistemare." Tra l'altro l'artista è stato intervistato dai giornali e l'ha presa sul filosofico, diciamo così. Ha detto "No, non ci sono rimasto male anzi ci ho visto qualcosa di ironico e positivo, mi è sembrata quasi una performance di arte moderna". Matteo: [19:00] Vabbè certo, è stata registrata, l'ha vista forse. Raffaele: [19:04] Eh, si sarà fatto una risata e ha detto "Mi ha dato persino lo spunto per la prossima opera da realizzare". Matteo: [19:11] Ah, incredibile. Raffaele: [19:13] "Sedia spezzata con turista immortalato accovacciato", chissà. Secondo me questo è il calore. Troppo caldo sta dando alla testa. Hai un antidoto per tutto questo caldo? Matteo: [19:26] Eh certo: andate a mare! Raffaele: [19:35] Eh vabbè ma il mare in Italia... Cioè l'Italia è tutta mare, è una penisola, c'è talmente tanto di quel mare che non sai dove andare. Dove andare a mare? Matteo: [19:48] Possiamo chiederlo ai mitici della bandiera blu. Raffaele: [19:55] La bandiera blu è uno degli strumenti che si utilizza in Italia per identificare le condizioni del mare delle spiagge italiane. Dare una bandiera blu ad una spiaggia vuol dire che lì l'acqua è pulita e bella, è l'idea di massima. Quest'anno in Italia, nel 2025, abbiamo 246 bandiere blu, quindi abbiamo almeno 246 posti da scegliere per avere l'acqua eccellente e addirittura recentemente c'è stato uno studio dei laboratori delle agenzie ambientali che hanno fatto una statistica e hanno visto che la regione con l'acqua più pulita, inteso meno inquinata in tutta Italia, è la Puglia. Il 99,7% delle acque è eccellente, ha una qualità eccellente, quindi l'acqua meno inquinata, praticamente 99,7% vuol dire che è perfetta. (Non male.) Più nello specifico, Matteo, tra l'altro le bandiere blu confermano questo trend e anche il maggior numero di bandiere blu in tutta Italia ce l'hanno Liguria, Puglia e Calabria, quindi si conferma la Puglia tra le migliori destinazioni. Tu sei stato in Puglia, sei stato al mare, ricordi qualche spiaggia, ti va di consigliarmi quella che secondo te è la spiaggia più bella d'Italia o la spiaggia più bella in cui sei stato in Italia? Matteo: [21:40] Allora, io sono stato in Puglia sì. Sono stato nel Gargano. Quindi la parte vicino al tallone dello stivale. E poi sono stato al confine con la Puglia, nel Molise, più verso nord. Siamo andati ogni tanto, siamo sconfinati in Puglia, spiagge un po' più sabbiose. Non sono andato ma dicono che un posto meraviglioso sono le isole Tremiti. Raffaele: [22:18] Eh sì. Matteo: [22:20] Che sono di fronte la Puglia e il Molise. Raffaele: [22:23] Esatto, sono un po' bistrattate, vuol dire maltrattate, spesso dimenticate quando si parla di isole italiane perché pensano tutti quanti alle isole della Sicilia. Mentre invece le Tremiti in Puglia sono una destinazione turistica bella, bella, bella. Matteo: [22:45] Sì. Raffaele: [22:46] Io sono stato in Puglia, non sono stato a mare in Puglia, perché sono stato in inverno, anche nei luoghi insomma che poi d'estate sono belli affollati. Però non ho avuto la possibilità di godere della spiaggia quando sono stato in Puglia. Quindi la mia selezione varia un po' tra Lazio e Campania soprattutto. Ed in particolare ti voglio raccomandare in Campania Marina d'Ascea, anche qui Bandiera Blu, una bella spiaggia ampia, mare molto pulito. Ma non solo, ce ne sono tante. C'è Palinuro. C'è un posto adesso non mi ricordo neanche più come... insomma, in quale zona specificamente si trova. Quando eravamo più ragazzini con la famiglia andavamo in un posto che si chiama "lo scoglio della tartaruga". E si trova a Vico Equense, in provincia di Napoli, non troppo lontano da Sorrento. Ed era un posto fantastico perché tu arrivavi, poi dovevi prendere la barchetta e la barchetta ti portava in questa spiaggia. Si chiama scoglio della tartaruga perché ci sono dei sassi poco distante dalla spiaggia che hanno proprio la forma di una tartaruga. E c'era l'abitudine, adesso non penso sia più consentito, di arrampicarsi su questa tartaruga e tuffarsi dalla testa o dal guscio della tartaruga. Non ci sei mai stato? Non ne hai mai sentito parlare? Matteo: [24:27] No, ricordo vagamente. A Vico Equense ci sono stato spesso quando ero piccolo e tutta quella parte lì è fantastica, ci sono delle spiagge e dei panorami e dei profumi bellissimi. Pino, mi ricordo sempre questo profumo di pino, l'albero e il mare che assieme creano un... Guarda, mi sento a mare adesso solo a pensarci. Raffaele: [25:01] Eh, ma io... infatti questo è un esercizio psicologico. Se penso alla spiaggia e al mare, automaticamente mi rinfresco. Nel Lazio ti consiglio una spiaggia che si chiama Serapo. Tecnicamente la zona, la cittadina a cui appartiene si chiama Gaeta, quindi siamo tra Napoli e Roma, non troppo lontano da Terracina che menziono sempre. Ed è insomma una bella bella spiaggia. Occhio al traffico, non facilissima da raggiungere, bisogna parcheggiare, poi fare delle scalinate... però insomma merita. Secondo alcuni la spiaggia più bella in Italia invece è la spiaggia dei conigli a Lampedusa. Matteo: [25:46] Non ci sono mai stato, è molto famosa tant'è vero che ne ho sentito già parlare.

We've been having great fun in Programming By Stealth learning how to use Jekyll to create a website using GitHub Pages. This week Bart goes through the challenge he left us with last time — to add a nav bar to our little static website using Bootstrap 5 along with Jekyll and Liquid templates. Bart had a lot of fun with his solution so it was fun to hear him dust off the cobwebs on Bootstrap. Then we turn to learning about Jekyll's `includes` feature, which is reusable snippets similar to how TextExpander snippets let you write something and change it in only one place. The worked examples simplify the code in a way, and we learn how to use `includes` to create advanced image markup. I also enjoyed learning about Liquid comments and how you can create white space between sections of your code for ease of writing and debugging that then never show up in the resultant HTML.

Software Engineering Radio - The Podcast for Professional Software Developers

In this episode, SE Radio host Sriram Panyam explores HTMX with its creator, Carson Gross, who is also creator of Hyperscript, the mind behind the Grug Brained Developer, a professor of software engineering at Montana State University, and co-author of Hypermedia Systems. HTMX is a modern JavaScript library that allows developers to access AJAX, WebSockets, CSS Transitions, and Server-Sent Events directly in HTML using attributes. It represents a return to hypermedia-driven application architecture while supporting modern user experiences. The episode starts with a look at the current complexity in web development and how HTMX offers an alternative approach. Carson explains the core philosophy of "HTML as the interface" and how hypermedia principles influenced HTMX's design. From there, they dive into HTMX's technical concepts, including its attribute system, server-side integration, event handling, and state management approach. Carson shares some real-world implementation strategies, including migration paths from JavaScript frameworks, architectural patterns, and performance considerations -- as well as a few scenarios in which HTMX might not be the best fit. Finally, they look at the growing HTMX ecosystem, community contributions, and future development roadmap. Throughout the episode, Carson provides concrete examples and case studies of HTMX in production environments. Brought to you by IEEE Computer Society and IEEE Software magazine.

There's a module for that Module name/project name: Facet Bot Blocker Brief history How old: created in Mar 2025, so about two months ago, by John Brandenburg (bburg) of Forum One Versions available: 1.0.2 which support Drupal 10 and 11 Maintainership Actively maintained Security coverage Number of open issues: 4 open issues, one of which is a bug, but it did have a fix merged 4 days ago Usage stats: 106 sites Module features and usage A number of sites are seeing a huge upswing in bot traffic, and quite often a big part of that bot traffic is on one or more pages with faceted search Crawlers try to request every permutation of every possible combination of facets. If your page has multiple facets, and in particular facets that accept multiple values, the number of permutations becomes huge Facet Bot Blocker works by allowing you to set a maximum number of facet requests to allow, what error to return, and a custom HTML message to return to blocked user agents If you have Memcache or Redis available, it's recommended to use the appropriate module, and Facet Bot Blocker will automatically store its settings there for reduced database reads The project page is also clear that if you are able to use a true Web Application Firewall (like Cloudflare or Akamai), that would be a better strategy. But if you don't have one available, Facet Bot Blocker can help to mitigate the surges in bot traffic that are causing problems for many Drupal sites, particularly those hosted on platforms that charge based on usage

In this repeat episode, Chris Coyier, co-founder of CodePen, talks about the evolving landscape of HTML heading into 2025. He delves into topics like the slow evolution of HTML compared to CSS and JavaScript, the importance of backwards compatibility, new HTML elements and pseudo-elements, and the potential of declarative shadow DOM for server-side rendering in web components.

#505: t-strings in Python (PEP 750)

Python has many string formatting styles which have been added to the language over the years. Early Python used the % operator to injected formatted values into strings. And we have string.format() which offers several powerful styles. Both were verbose and indirect, so f-strings were added in Python 3.6. But these f-strings lacked security features (think little bobby tables) and they manifested as fully-formed strings to runtime code. Today we talk about the next evolution of Python string formatting for advanced use-cases (SQL, HTML, DSLs, etc): t-strings. We have Paul Everitt, David Peck, and Jim Baker on the show to introduce this upcoming new language feature.
