So much for that Computer Science degree.
It's an April fools joke

He uses this screen reader: http://www.freedomscientific.com/Products/Blindness/JAWS

It doesn't have Linux support though so if he needs to work in the Linux OS, he uses Windows with a Linux VM

It's not built specially for software developers but just all visually impaired users in general

Thanks for the kind words! Appreciate it :)

Hi everyone! Thanks for the support and reply. Wasn't expecting this kind of response when we wrote the article.

Herwin is visually impaired since birth so he definitely picked up coding with a screen reader. I have notified him of the comments here so he can share more of how he initially picked up coding himself. :)

Re:How to Use Chrome Developer Tools Like a Pro on Saturday September 19, 2015 @03:19PM (#10245272)
Whoa! Great article. Even though I use the tool a lot, I didn't know it could do some of the things you highlighted. Definitely a good read for both pros and people new to Chrome Dev Tools :)
Re:Ask HN: Start date is set, but I got another offer. What to do? on Saturday September 19, 2015 @03:17PM (#10245268)
Alright! Focus on doing a great job at (a) and see how things go with B from there. Who knows, you may fall in love with the work you're doing at A and change your mind :)
Re:Ask HN: Start date is set, but I got another offer. What to do? on Saturday September 19, 2015 @02:40PM (#10245147)
Have you signed the papers with A? If you have, might want to check the consequences of leaving early or is there a probation period of 1-2 months where you and company A have the right to terminate the employment within 24 hours? If yes, then I'd say take (a) in case B does make you a real offer after the background checks :)
Re:What was the biggest mistake of your career? on Saturday September 19, 2015 @02:37PM (#10245136)
You can try honing your skills by first taking on some freelance projects! Or still working on cool random apps on the side! Build something for the medical industry perhaps? :)

Just like Warren Buffett saying don't go in short and fast. Always go in for the long haul.
