Homelab Software Recap

=> ↺ Homelab Software Recap

Roughly a year ago I redid my entire home network and could then officially call it a homelab. Unfortunately the insane delays in acquiring Raspberry Pi's has put quite the delay in finishing this setup. So while I continue to sit and wait on available pieces - I want to recap all the software I've come to love and run on this network.

CSS-only Widgets Are Inaccessible

=> ↺ CSS-only Widgets Are Inaccessible

Interactive widgets powered with only CSS are relatively common as people are playing with all the ways CSS can respond to, or create, interactions. CodePen contests are a great venue to see these experiments (which hopefully are never moved to a live human-facing project).
The problem with many of these examples is they need to convey their state (such as expanded or not), properties (think of relationships), or values, and (sometimes) dynamic names. While CSS is ideal to show these visually, they need to be passed to accessibility APIs so they can be conveyed to users of assistive technologies.

Emphasis vs Italics

=> ↺ Emphasis vs Italics

Emphasis is what you use italics for most of the time. When you need cite, you can type and when you need a more generic italic, for example for foreign language words or Linnaean names, you can type . But on user-writable forums that disable fallthrough HTML, i is the better default. It’s never “wrong”, per se (em is just more specific) and it matches how many people sometimes use * and _ on these forums, when they think “I want to make this look cursive” rather than “I need to semantically emphasize this”.
