Cool to see the concept of contextual repositioning for better monospaced typefaces finding a huge audience through GitHub’s new coding font. A small credit for the idea would have been nice tho. finaltype.de/en/projects/mon…

All code has been letters, on a grid, since the days of the teletype machine. How can we advance the state of the art to make code itself more expressive and powerful? How can we layer more meaning onto code?

I think „Monoflow“ by @finaltype_de pioneered this idea of contextual repositioning.

COVID policy has become purely ad hoc and reactive. There's no strategy, there's no endgame, there's no philosophy, there's no internal consistency, there's no cost-benefit analysis, there's no metrics to define success, there's no consensus on what we want to accomplish.
Our Monoflow coding font got featured in this article along with a bunch of other spectacular monospace fonts! :)

I believe this @xkcd comic is the greatest non-code contribution to #opensource in the past decade.
