@LeaVerou I trust you will help make this an interesting election :)
I have lots of annotated paper books and I'd like to save the annotations. Tried scanning but it's slow and very bad with pencil. Thoughts?

Replying to @edasfr

hahaha.

Replying to @edasfr

Many of them are precious (to me) thoughts. I want them backed up while staying accessible enough for research.

Replying to @edasfr

Oui c’est pas très pratique. Un des problèmes avec le scan est que la lumière se reflète sur le graphite.

Replying to @edasfr

Je me demande du coup si ça marcherait juste de prendre des photos. Mais bon, il faudrait que j’aie un appareil pour tester :)

Replying to @edasfr

Je sais, mais si c’est le seul truc qui marche je peux m’y coller. 10-20 minutes ici ou là ça se trouve. Mais il faut que ça marche!

Replying to @edasfr

Ça ne concerne que des livres scientifiques. Je suis repassé au papier pour tout ce qui contient des maths, malheureusement.

Replying to @null and @m_strehl

Hmmmm. I don’t really know the world of universities well :) Is that common equipment?

Replying to @null and @m_strehl

Replying to @brucel

A most excellent choice. Maybe follow it up with the Illuminatus trilogy, or is it too soon?

Replying to @caledoniaman

That’s what’s unclear to me. I’d expect that whoever needs synth would already have it, no? @stevefaulkner

Replying to @caledoniaman

Yeah, that was my thinking (although you have to actively select-click activate it). @stevefaulkner

Replying to @caledoniaman

I strongly suspect this is just someone who’s found a way of making an extra dime selling «accessibility». @stevefaulkner

Replying to @caledoniaman

You’d think so — but the way to get to the page that explains it is through a «visually impaired» link… @stevefaulkner

Replying to @null and @MarcoInEnglish

Ok, but wouldn’t the logical thing be to equip the UA rather than every site in different ways? @stevefaulkner

Replying to @yatil

So potentially a bit useful, but shouldn’t be hidden behind a «visually impaired» link :)

Replying to @ShaneHudson

It’s… special :) Have you read the Illuminatus trilogy? @brucel

In this case I’m not sure that the UX of having to select text to synth it makes for a great mobile experience… @patrick_h_lauke

I’m so happy to see people finally care about SVG :) @SaraSoueidan @thebabydino

You mean like kwz.me/vi ? @hadleybeeman @w3c

Replying to @torgo

Well, it’s run by a @w3c team member — that’s the closest I have :) @hadleybeeman

Interested, sure, but finding the time can be tricky. Already have to finish the spec checker github.com/w3c/specberus @w3c @W3Cdev

Y a pas l’air d’avoir grand monde? @axellelemaire

Replying to @S_LeGoff

C’est vrai! Je suis bien triste de ne pas avoir été au courant de cet évènement. @axellelemaire

Replying to @nuragic

I’d recommend starting off with a straight port from the validator.nu code. @w3c @W3Cdev

Replying to @nuragic

You should look at what’s there, but in order to port the stuff you don’t need to fork the source.

Is that «A War in the Sand»?

Replying to @torgo

It’s not the first time this has happened to me. Ten years ago I was questioned about XPath APIs.

Replying to @torgo

Now I’ll just have to read it :)

Replying to @torgo

But, you know, 1991! I’m glad the stuff I wrote then is not online :)

Replying to @rdeltour

Hahahaha, that’s a good one!

Replying to @rdeltour

In ~2001 when asked what topic I was going to present, I said «XPath APIs», the guy replied «You could implement XSLT with that?»

Replying to @rdeltour

No — sadly I was too stunned to ask how he knew about that stuff!

Replying to @innovimax

I wish, but I’m leaving tonight! @rdeltour @fgeorges

Replying to @jkphl and @fhemberger

Err, no. It is no different from what the page can do. In fact scripts in inline SVG just run in the page.

Replying to @SaraSoueidan and @jkphl

Also when inlined you need to use the HTML syntax, which is a bit more verbose.

Replying to @stevefaulkner

Just flew back from Boston, will catch up on that!

Replying to @null and @fhemberger, @jkphl

oh, *that*. Shrug. That's not an issue for someone inlining SVG.

Replying to @rodneyrehm

but that's just like using an html fragment. @SaraSoueidan @jkphl
