I'm glad this fad has shifted away from using washed out fonts on white backgrounds since this article was posted in 2012. I am no designer and choosing/judging color palettes is probably my weakest area, but man the whole 'never use black' thing was/is awful in my opinion. I strongly prefer a website that uses #000 text on #fff background over some washed out gray that's impossible to read on #fff background.
