Not OP, but this is basically the same dream layout I've sketched for myself! Unfortunately it would give me the most day-to-day benefit on OSX, which is probably the place I'm least likely to see it implemented...

We would probably change our model of physics to accommodate the emergence of those properties? I suppose there's a scale at which the "gap" becomes too large to call it "physics," but the larger the scale, the stra

Yeah, one could draw a tight spiral in any of the open spaces of unbounded length. But "discretization" is probably a good angle to interpret it, since such a counterexample would be discretized to a point.

If you want a more featureful tool, but still data-oriented and built with a programming-slant, I highly recommend Squib[1]. It has tons of rendering and processing options, and fairly thorough documentation (unlike pretty much everything e

Yeah it was a rather amazing (and perverse) shift. The other day a spammer called me from a number less than 10 off of mine. They must have a bank of numbers they select from based on hamming distance, as I've seen near-permutations of

Didn't target="_blank" originate in that era you were talking about? I know the target attribute was part of HTML4 (1999). I'm not sure when _blank became a special value, but I imagine it was before the spec acknowledge

I'm not intimately familiar with this app, but I've used Google's version quite a few times. I don't think either really identifies the font much more than separating into a few different categories (e.g. serif vs sans).

I perceive it being middleware as the benefit. For when your client isn't set up to manipulate the incoming data and you can't edit the backend resource that generates it. Or vice versa.

Or if you still want a rainbow to satisfy personal design desires, cubehelix and HCL both provide great perceptively-balanced scales. That said, I usually prefer subsets, like viridis.

Though that's assuming the people making online orders even bother looking at the amount paid. I don't necessarily see why they would (or why they wouldn't assume you had merely cashed in some sort of promo or balance).
