No joke: my 70-something IBM veteran C++ class teacher in high school used Comic Sans in Visual Studio. Every time he shared his screen on the projector me and my buddy chuckled. He was so literal that it was either really good dry humor, or the dude genuinely liked coding in Comic Sans.

- lillesvin 5y agoThat's not necessarily true[0]. It's a widely repeated claim but there doesn't seem to be much actual evidence supporting it. Rather it seems that letter size and spacing are the main factor when trying to make text more readable to dyslectics.
