I noticed in a bunch of productions of Rossini's The Barber of Seville, they have Don Basilio (the money grubbing music teacher/wedding planner/rumor monger) dressed like a priest when he's extremely clearly not a man of the cloth. The play does not say anything about him dressing this way, so this is one of those things where it's part of the meta tradition of staging even if it's not actually part of the libretto. well I finally learned why:

Joan Pahisa explains the accessibility challenges for people with disabilities.

Most webs don't comply, tech is designed without taking these groups of people into account. E.g. the case with self driving cars is terribly dangerous. Joan is not detected(!), well only as a stain, by Tesla cars.

Joan works on a communicator tool that enables people with speech disabilities to speak by selecting graphic icons: jocomunico.com

Joan is himself a funny and gifted public speaker.

Session about accessibility with Joan Pahisa in wheelchair at the right.

ちなみに自分はあと数年もすれば40歳を越えますが、自分の世代でギリギリ「昔ながらのオタク」像が当てはまるイメージなので、それ以降の若い世代を指して「オタク」としてくくるのはなんか違和感がありますね

自分より若くて、幼い頃からデジタル機器がある世代は「デジタルネイティブ」と呼ばれていたはずで、その後の世代がZ世代とか呼ばれていたイメージ、まぁ「イメージ」ベースなんで合ってるかどうかは不明ですが……

While some people have argued the layoffs at Block are a sign the company is in trouble, Jack Dorsey’s perspective that AI productivity gains means you can do more work with fewer people is actually widespread among CEOs.

They may quibble about his methods but they don’t disagree with his message.
