From that link, it seems like the change in the text column width behavior, which is promoted as limiting text columns to a maximum width, in practice creates a min-width as well which can be quite wide. That is, in the old wikipedia, you c

With her doubtful record of success, it is questionable that the CEO really could find a higher paying job elsewhere. And Mozilla's poor track record suggests that if Mozilla insists on paying the same CEO salary, they might do well to

Sure, there will always be customers for whom the low-price option is perfect. Outlet malls are another form of price discrimination, as they offer lower prices for those willing to travel further to get the lower prices. But there will alw

As I see it it's basically price discrimination. Apple wants a certain profit margin for the model as a whole. Yet for customers who will never pay prices that will give Apple that full margin, they offer a model at a low price point w

While I have no problem with the linked article I think the headline is a bit unfair. How often is BS-ey pseudoscience like this really used and cited by UX designers in the field? It would seem to be mainly an issue among the most bloated,
