The article is missing to mention the most important change, when it comes to on screen fonts, in recent years: HiDPI displays. Before that, only a few monospaced fonts, like Consolas, with proper pixel hinting worked for me, or I had to go for absurdly high point sizes (16 or above) to not be irritated by uneven lines and dotted zeros with no gap. Since switching to Retina-like displays anything on that list works pretty well to personal preference and eye strain seems to have much reduced.
