Let's check off what we're working on for now. I'm tackling MNIST

[peytondmurray]

I'll take x-rays!

[maxrjones]

I'll add alt text to /content/tutorial-style-guide.md

[isabela-pf]

I'll add alt text to Moore's law!

I don't actively watch this repo, so let me know if you want me to look at a PR you make. So far I've seen:

@meghanrjones contributed #97! I just added #99.

[cooperrc]

Just submitted PR #100 for the alt-text in the MNIST tutorial.

@isabela-pf, any thoughts on "captioning" matplotlib figures? I used italics, because I use that in technical reports here-and-there, but is there a better/more inclusive caption in-place of alt-text?

[peytondmurray]

Just submitted PR https://github.com/numpy/numpy-tutorials/pull/101 for the x-rays tutorial!

I believe this was a tracking issue for a sprint that has concluded, so I will go ahead and close this. Accessbility improvements are of course always welcome!
