WCAG vs EAA: Understanding where WCAG stops and where the EAA starts
https://www.getstark.co/blog/wcag-vs-eaa/

Very interesting article that points out that the EAA goes much further than the WCAG. We should focus on that as well.

Hiut Denim | No Growth

I agree with the idea that businesses do not need to grow. Growth is the ideology of a tumor, of a parasite.

Is HSL really easier to use? • Chris Lilley
https://svgees.us/blog/hsl-bad.html

So there is no scientific proof that hsl is easier to use. But it does resemble the way human describe colours, much more than rgb.

Broken
Toolspace
https://letterror.com/articles/toolspace.html

Very interesting article about the idea that designer should make (hone) their own tools. Some quotes:

It is precisely the task of designers (graphic, industrial or whatever) to discover new possibilities.

Limitations and demands imposed by a client are easier to accept than the arbitrary limitations of your digital tools.

After all, programming graphic programs is much too important to leave to programmers.

Explorers, and that is what they are, do not want to do the same thing twice.

Design Beyond Barriers
https://designbeyondbarriers.com/

I don’t agree with this quote, as someone who uses code as a design tool, but …

But readable type, intuitive navigation, and smart color choices start in design, not in code. Developers build the product, but we set the foundation. It’s time to own that responsibility.

… but I really like the website and I think it is a great idea for a book.

as days pass by — A (limited) defence of footnotes
https://www.kryogenix.org/days/2025/07/03/a-limited-defence-of-footnotes/

Nice and thorough. Footnotes are style and should be used, whenever you think you should use them. Design them, and do so with attention.

Unraveling the Disability Pride Flag • Buttondown
https://buttondown.com/TYFYFL/archive/unraveling-the-disability-pride-flag/

Very, very long piece about stuff around the disability pride flag, some sort of weird conflict it seems to have with an earlier disability flag. Some interesting observations about what it really means to design with a community as well.
