An example of a nested dropdown menu in the style of Notion. This was built using Ariakit components and tested with several screen readers, including VoiceOver, NVDA, JAWS, and TalkBack.

If you're already using Radix UI in your project and need a Combobox, you can take just the necessary components from Ariakit and use them along with Radix UI.
hazdiego··on Show HN: Reakit, the Accessible UI Toolkit for React
Hi guys. A year ago I left my job to dedicate myself to this open source project. Now I'm finally releasing its v1.

This is the best project I've ever done in my 17 years of programming. I'm sure it'll help companies ship accessible web apps with ease.

Feedbacks are welcome.

hazdiego··on Rio de Janeiro’s police killed a record number of people in three months
By the way, would anyone be interested in reading this story? I have the camera recordings with me.

I agree. My post is more in the direction of "the violence practiced by the police is disproportionate to the real violence of the city".

Although I never suffered anything from the police either (maybe because I'm not black and didn't look poor when I was poor), I've seen a bunch of racist approaches from them in many situations.

Of course, it's based on my own experience (27 years living there) and statistics I find on the internet (which may not count the violence that happens deeper in the favelas).

Mine was a Macbook too. It was stolen on that security part where you have to put your personal belongs on the "running machine" (no idea how to call that) and pass through the scanner.

The woman that passed before me took my laptop. I thought it was by mistake, but the cameras proved otherwise.

Surprisingly or not, nobody cared. I was already hopeless in the airplane (which was late because of it) when this police officer came with my computer. I don't know what happened to the woman.

The police officer was American. I said he was Mexican because he was speaking Spanish with us (which helped, because my wife's Spanish is better than my English, and I was too anxious to speak).

Ironically, Rio de Janeiro is considered one of the safest capitals in Brazil [1]. The absolute numbers are high, but that's a huge city with millions of habitants.

I lived there for 27 years in favelas like Rocinha and Santa Marta (when I didn't have money), and in apartments in Botafogo and Flamengo (after making money). I walked on the streets midnight and later. Nothing has ever happened to me. I've never even witnessed anything.

Of course, it's my own experience and I have some privileges.

The only time I was robbed in my life I was in the US. My computer has been stolen in the Houston International Airport (thankfully, it was recovered by a super professional Mexican police officer).
