U.S. Supreme Court Passes on Domino’s Case: Commenters Misunderstand - Lainey Feingold
This post clears about a few things about the implications of the US Supreme Court ruling on the case against Domino’s pizza for failing to provide an accessible web-based ordering service. An enjoyable read, not least because it reveals much about how people still think about disabled rights.
A Business Case for Dropping Internet Explorer - Ollie Williams
I don’t agree with everything that I post in this newsletter, and this article is a good example. Like it or not, making a decision to drop support for a browser is much more than a business decision in most cases.
The “P” in Progressive Enhancement stands for “Pragmatism” - Andy Bell
Counterpoint to the above. If you consider a broad definition of support to go beyond ‘identical in every browser’, there is no need to slam the door in the face of someone using a browser for which they currently have no realistic alternative.
