I have to agree with this. CC is not 100%that captioning of videos is uneven and still not standardized because it is theoretically harder to caption personal videos (not anymore- people are just lazy) or platforms don't support it (currently my FB and FB Purity somehow broke my ability to see closed captions (Open captions are fine)....)
hmm what else....Technology has been a big plus for me more than negative/frustration aside from the lack of/unevenness of captioned videos...
On TV, don't you love the CC cut off when going into the commercial? Crappy....
What kind of barriers?Barriers are the hard est
Totally agree that it's been more of a positive than negative. I just want to see it contribute even more. What about beyond what exists now. What tech would you want to see made for the future?that captioning of videos is uneven and still not standardized because it is theoretically harder to caption personal videos (not anymore- people are just lazy) or platforms don't support it (currently my FB and FB Purity somehow broke my ability to see closed captions (Open captions are fine)....)

In what way?software developers and hardware developers should understand us more.
What's the most frustrating thing that you encounter in the tech world and why?
I'm a fellow deaf individual researching the intersection of deafness, tech and barriers to inclusivity. I would greatly value any insights you might provide!
He likes to code everywhere, even on the plane. He won't go anywhere without his laptop. He plays a lot with one of his favorite programming languages, Python. One of my frustrations in the tech world is I personally think they just want to develop algorithms so they can make a profit off of that and sell it to the biggest buyer. And one more thing, software engineers are notoriously stubborn.
software developers and hardware developers should understand us more.
Oh, that occurs to me, DeafDucky. I think you will like Python because it's got black background you can read in code. Easier on your eyes.
Much like COBOL lol (the old 'green screens'). Luckily most of the editors out now do have black or dark themes (I use Visual Studio Code) and the terminal (iTerm2) I use on the mac- I can set to dark theme (I made it 'green screen' style lol- never had time in Utah to prettify it with different colors).
Working on beefing up my React stuff (and javascript) then diving into Python since my aunt gifted me a Python course on Coursera. I'm not happy with them as their courses aren't CAPTIONED.. "but we have online transcripts or the soft-cover books" (we opted for the books... giant mistake.. the print in them is INSANELY SMALL!...but guess I'll use the magnifying glass (I have three laying around here now..).
