Enough! I'm done with negativity. Let's focus on some positives this week.

Also... I'm actually not done with negativity, because there's a specific subset of negative testing that I promised to cover as well. But still!

So, in keeping with the general feel of world events, and as promised, this week is very much on the negative end of things as I discuss the negative impact of certain high-profile political decisions and the value of negative testing.

Happy Mon-yay y'all!

This week I start with some exciting (if a little scary) news, followed by a brief overview of one of the unsung heros of testing types.

One week down...

This week I'm covering a topic I never thought in a million years I would have to cover: why autism is not "an excuse". I also cover the subject of making mistakes and how to handle it in a professional manner.

Good Monday, everyone!

This week is admittedly a bit of a rant about the hypocrisy of social etiquette, while also covering my views on bug reporting etiquette.

The first QAuDHD of the year is here!

Welcome to 2025 everyone - and what a year it's shaping up to be... for better or worse. I started the year with a lovely holiday that left me with an awful cold, so I will mostly be complaining about that. But I'll ALSO be covering some Accessibility best practices that fall under the "Motor" category.

The last QAuDHD of the year is here!

This week I talk about "Gamergate 2", representation and unconscious bias in what I hope doesn't come off as too much of a rant... If it does, I can just make "rant less" one of my New Year's resoltuons for 2025!

Thank you all so much for reading and listening to QAuDHD over the past few months - in a year of highs and lows it has been right up there with the best things I've done in 2024, and I plan to continue next year and beyond; for as long as I feel like I have something useful to say.

It's CHRIIIIISTMAAAAAAS..... in a couple of days!

It has been quite a year, with highs and lows personally and across the industry; yet somehow we manage. Spare a thought for anyone struggling this festive season, and remember that even the ones who seem to be doing well might be struggling in their own way.
