> Main developer is blind, so accessibility has priority;

Never thought about it before, but doing development work as a blind person sounds extremely impressive.

Vision is just such a fast and easy way to acquire information. Without it, it seems quite difficult to check your existing code, easily read prior documentation, take notes, and just various other conveniences that one take for granted.

I'm sure there are various tools and methods to ameliorate these problems, but still.


When I think about much of what blind people are able to achieve across domains, it's extremely impressive.


Huh, the link now points to an article titled:

> "Why worries about American job losses are overstated."

Instead of the archived version.

While the beginning of the article is the same, the last line in the preview differs:

> Original: "...to support a weakening jobs market."

> New: "...to support a weakening jobs market. Look closer, however, and much of the gloom seems to be overdone."

Though I don't have a subscription to check the rest of the article.
