Here’s how to make your website more accessible

Posted on November 29, 2020 / by [email protected]_84 /

There are many things to consider when setting up a website, and accessibility is one factor that can sometimes be overlooked. An accessible website is one that’s optimized for all people, including those with impaired vision or hearing, motor difficulties, or learning disabilities.

Having an accessible website is not only a responsibility against discrimination, but it’s also a legal requirement in several countries, and you open yourself up to lawsuits by not adhering to the guidelines.

Additionally, from a business marketing perspective, the design and functionality features mean that accessible websites perform better and are higher ranking in search engine lists. Your website is therefore more likely to gain attention from a larger potential audience when it’s accessible to everyone.

The JIT compiler is designed to bring performance improvements to web applications by turning code into instructions for the CPU at runtime. Meanwhile, union types is a feature that allows data of more than one type to be held by a variable.

Named arguments allow developers to assign values to a function by specifying the value name, allowing optional parameters to be ignored.

Alongside these, version 8.0 of PHP brings optimizations and enhancements to the language’s type system, syntax, error

Agile is changing software development. Here’s how one company made the switch

Posted on November 24, 2020 / by [email protected]_84 /

Digital transformation is highly prized but poorly understood. While more than two-thirds (69%) of directors want their organisations to accelerate digital business initiatives, as many as 80% of IT leaders fail when they try and change their organisations for the better.

The reason for failure is often a lack of alignment between IT and business leaders. Too many digital transformation projects still focus on changing back-end systems at the expense of involving line-of-business managers in the development of front-end services.

The best way to deliver digital transformation success, suggests Joe Soule, CTO at Capital One Europe, is to build Agile, cross-business teams that work to build creative solutions to customer challenges.

At Capital One, Soule has helped the bank move away from legacy ways of working and towards an investment in software engineering capability and Agile methodologies. It’s a long-term

You can use a trackpad — also known as a touchpad or glide pad — to click, scroll, zoom in and out, switch between tabs, and more on your computer.
Trackpads are commonly found on laptops, but they can also be used with desktops in place of a mouse.
Your trackpad type and capabilities will be dependent on the kind of desktop or laptop device you have, such as a Mac or Windows PC.
Trackpads take up less space and require less strain on your wrists but must be frequently cleaned and maintained to avoid user issues.

Here’s Where People Shell Out the Most and the Least for Internet

Posted on November 16, 2020 / by [email protected]_84 /

The price differences from state to state for internet access, a modern necessity, can be staggering. And internet access is especially needed in these pandemic times, with the rise of online school, remote work, video chatting, job searching, and gaming.

HighSpeedInternet.com released a report on how much the cost of internet varies across the US in 2020. The data analysts took information from 350,000 internet customers spanning the US, found the average monthly price for internet in each state, and then broke down those values to average price per Mbps (megabits per second). The price per Mbps better reflects the internet speed quality, according to the analysts.

The top ten most expensive states for internet access, according to the report, are Wyoming ($7.84), North Dakota ($7.57), Montana ($7.28), South Dakota ($7.17), Virginia ($6.74), Iowa ($6.34), New Mexico ($6.23), North Carolina ($5.87), Alabama ($5.82), and Nebraska ($5.43).

What is a computer worm? Here’s how to protect yourself

Posted on November 12, 2020 / by [email protected]_84 /

A computer worm is a type of malware that, once it infects a machine, can automatically copy and extend itself to connected devices.
A worm is very similar to a virus, and you can get infected by one in the same way — mainly by clicking an infected link or opening a compromised file.
You can avoid being infected by a worm using common anti-malware advice. Use antivirus software, keep your computer up to date, and never open links or files which you don’t completely trust.
Visit Business Insider’s Tech Reference library for more stories.

A computer worm is a form of malware that, once it has infected a computer, continues to replicate itself on the infected computer as well as automatically infecting other computers it comes in contact with. It’s similar to a virus, but a worm is somewhat more sophisticated, able to proliferate without any human intervention.

This story is part of Elections 2020, CNET’s coverage of the voting in November and its aftermath.

Former Vice President Joe Biden has beaten President Donald Trump in a contest punctuated with wild rumors, false reports and premature declarations of victory. The end of the election, however, hasn’t meant an end to the misinformation.

Social media posts from the sitting president that falsely claim the election was stolen from him have swept through the internet, and Trump has continued to tweet and retweet items that contain disputed information, which Twitter has labeled. Additionally, baseless claims of election fraud from a variety of sources have also swept Twitter, as well as YouTube and Facebook.
