"“I’ve gotten a lot of flak for using a mono-spaced font (Courier New) in the study,” said Johnson."
The whole damn point of "use one space after periods" was "...because we're using proportional fonts now"
- gweinberg 8y agoNot just proportional fonts. We're using formats where white space isn't significant. Using two spaces after a period makes sense if you are using a typewriter. It's nonsense if you don't even own a typewriter.
