  @SarraceniaWilds just pulling out the part that’s pressing on the nerve.

  @SarraceniaWilds yeah. Thanks, that’s reassuring to hear!

  @oldirty amazing, thank you!

  @ericg I’m so excited for that part!

  One week since my surgery and I’m so happy. The nerve pain was gone the second I woke up. Today I took an 8 minute walk, no pain, for the first time in 6 months. The hardest part now is restraining myself so I can recover properly!

  Anyone here had a lumbar discectomy? I’m having the surgery in 6 days and I’m a bit nervous! Not so much about the surgery itself or general anaesthetic, but the stay in hospital and what the recovery will involve. I’d appreciate any insight or advice from people with experience!

  At the end of the month I’ll be speaking at Accessibility Ireland about teaching inclusive design from day one. It’ll be all about how I’m trying to integrate inclusive design into the UI Design with @penpot course. I’m looking forward to starting a discussion on inclusivity in design and picking the brains of the experts there! Join us! Thursday 30th April in Dublin… https://www.eventbrite.ie/e/teaching-inclusive-design-from-day-one-tickets-1986634651722

  I am so sorry to say that I can't make the Accessibility Ireland event next week, as I'm not able to travel right now. Hopefully we'll be able to postpone it for later in the year! In related news, after months of back pain, it turns out I have a badly bulging disc with a generous side portion of sciatica. If anybody needs me, I'll be lying on the floor.

  I wrote about the design tokens JSON format (particularly how it works with @penpot) Originally inspired by someone on the Penpot community trying to import a JSON-formatted colour palette into Penpot. But then of course I had to get thorough about it! https://penpot.app/blog/a-practical-guide-to-the-design-tokens-json-format/

  RE: https://front-end.social/@anarodrigues/116562197482285921 I hate how I nodded along to the familiarity of all this.

  I worked out a bunch of practical uses for math(s) functions in @penpot design tokens. It made my brain hurt a lot but you might find it useful! (Includes a template with all the demos.) https://penpot.app/blog/practical-uses-for-math-functions-in-design-tokens/

  In case you missed it, I shared the demo files from last week’s hands-on to the Penpot community. Rounding numbers, breakpoints, responsive layouts, all using design tokens: https://community.penpot.app/t/penpot-tokens-studio-hands-on-demo-feb-25th/10341/2 https://peertube.kaleidos.net/w/o8RXX8T6PGQbZpCkvoJvAX

  Finally updated the @penpot tour (in under 5 minutes) video. I’ve tried to pack in all the practical info you need to get started, no filler. #penpot https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vAkb4QQmbfk

  I was a guest on Layshi Curbelo’s fabulous Command Z podcast and the episode is out now! We recorded this in-person during Penpot Fest. Layshi is the best host and it was a very cathartic experience 💜 https://open.spotify.com/episode/42zeo4MxwcCNIZdteuuc0S?si=r0IPPA6uSvymqp3147f4gA

  Editing my transcripts. Yep, still a humbling experience.

  Tomorrow we’re doing a Penpot ✕ Tokens Studio live hands-on demo. It’s all about the practical details of dealing with design tokens at scale. I’ll be getting Marco to give me feedback on my design system, and we’ve got some really nerdy demos. And there’ll be a live chat for any of your questions! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gRFiERjXgTA

  My book, Accessibility For Everyone, is now free and online as a website. https://accessibilityforeveryone.site The book was first published by A Book Apart in 2017 but it holds up! It covers web accessibility for designers, developers, content folks, and really everyone who works in tech.
