It looks best in all-caps, since that's what the diagrams that used the lettering sets used. You can get a good sense of how it looks with the Unicode table: https://webonastick.com/fonts/routed-gothic/unicode

I tried designing one of those SSH attack-map websites based around the interfaces in 2001: A Space Odyssey, like these here[1]. It was difficult, I was trying "emulation of low-tech methods" as you said. I think if you could run

I think you may have replied to the wrong comment or misunderstood my project, it's mostly finding text from a certain language based on some (fairly simple) heuristics, then converting it from one script to another in a systematic wa

Ojibwe and Cree are both spoken in Manitoba, but it's too far south for Inuktitut. I read through your other comment on this post and read about the work you're doing. I didn't quite understand –I think it's hard to expl

If you're curious, I don't have any direct connection with the Inuit but I got into syllabics because I have some Ojibwe speakers in my family, and Ojibwe also uses syllabics. None of the current speakers I know can write in Ojibw

Inuktitut, Rust, Python, JS, or WASM? :D Inuktitut is very cool. I'm not a speaker so I'm relying heavily on research, but I've always loved making tools for syllabics and working with text generally.

I've been building a web extension for an Inuit language (ᐃᓄᒃᑎᑐᑦ ᖃᓂᐅᔮᖅᐸᐃᑦ). Most Inuit in Canada speak Inuktitut, which is a language with long words and two different writing systems: the latin alphabet, and syllabics. Syllabics are s

One of my family members rarely lets her daughter watch TV, and when that kid is in front of a set, she's so catatonic she can't remember her name. I can't imagine if she was an iPad kid with TikTok in front of her, kids espe

Most of the charts don't load for me until I click a different "respondents" tab and click back, and the "prev" button at the bottom links to the current page while the "next" skips the next one altogether

The predominant OCaml shop is Jane Street, they have a good podcast where they talk to those involved in their infrastructure. A lot of the episodes go into the tradeoffs between the GC'd and functional OCaml vs languages like C++ and
