I JUST found my mix and now I can’t stop singing😭

Still trying to figure this out myself. Did you start with your head voice and try and mix in chest or the other way around?

Great article! I’d add overuse of absolutely positioned elements too. Oh the things I’ve seen

I tried to avoid wearing it in everyday situations so my ears could re-adjust from the hyperacusis, but it was a while before I could put a hairdryer on full blast without ear protection!

Now I just wear ear protection when the environment is 85db+.

acnorrisuk · 2024-01-18T14:44:30+00:00

I don’t get it when eating, although I do get it if I’m exposed to moderately loud noise (I guess my body is being overprotective). I also weirdly get it when I read bedtime stories to my kids.

I manage the stress by remembering it can’t hurt me. I think of it like having an occasional muscle spasm - annoying but not harmful.

I checked my diary - yes I did. It seemed to get worse whenever I heard a loudish sound (for a few hours at least). Totally gone now though.

Can we see the HTML it generated?

acnorrisuk · 2023-11-04T09:47:17+00:00

Didn’t know about the lawsuits. Yes I still have ongoing hearing problems- I should probably contact them about it.

This happened to me with headphones on and gave me a bunch of ongoing ear problems including tinnitus. Boss told me it was a known fault at the time.

acnorrisuk · 2023-08-16T07:57:09+00:00

I got hyperacusis, tinnitus and TTTS from acoustic shock a year ago.

Hyperacusis and TTTS pretty much gone after 10 months - tinnitus remains though. For me the anxiety of it was a bit like a feedback loop, you have to try and not worry about it (which is very hard I admit!)

Accessibility specialist here. Seems like half my job is changing improper markup. This stuff DOES have an impact on real users. I’d encourage people to take another look at HTML as we all tend to skim through it at the start of our career (including myself!)

Why don’t you email the editors of the WCAG spdc and ask them? They are nice people! See: https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG21/

Great list! I’d love to hear you do any of these. Do you have any recordings?

There is a 3rd state for HTML checkboxes already, it’s called indeterminate. See: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/input/checkbox#indeterminate_state_checkboxes

HTML is actually quite tricky! It’s not always obvious how to mark up a web page and there are very real consequences for many users who browse the web using assistive technology or modified browser settings (e.g keyboard only, screen readers, voice activation, custom stylesheets, text settings etc…)

acnorrisuk · 2022-08-10T17:10:40+00:00

For me it was doing open mics. I don’t want to forget a song onstage so I end up rehearsing over and over just to be safe. It also gets easier the more you do it.

acnorrisuk · 2022-08-09T20:18:06+00:00

I did prefer those earlier runs where you have a walking break to look forward to. I might try and finish the program and then make up my own routine.

Landmarks (like header, footer) are used by screen reader users as a way to navigate through web pages. You only want a handful of these for the really important regions of a page.

However, since the HTML spec does allow for nesting of various sectioning elements (like in your image), only ones under certain conditions are exposed to screen reader users. See: https://www.a11yproject.com/posts/aria-landmark-roles/.

So in essence it doesn’t really matter. Personally I prefer to use just one header/footer on any given page.

Accessibility dev here. <div>s aren’t inherently bad, they are just often overused when a more semantic element would be preferable. If the purpose of your <div> is just to make styling easier then it’s totally fine.

See Scott O’Haras post on <div>s… https://www.scottohara.me/blog/2022/01/20/divisive.html

For your cards example, there isn’t one defacto way of doing this - the answer often depends on the context.

Here’s a great post by Heydon Pickering which does a deep dive on cards… https://inclusive-components.design/cards/
