A while ago, while repurposing an old laptop into a distraction-free “typewriter” I researched fonts with a typewriter-like aesthetic. Here’s what I found: Sun Gallant Demi, Solarize, Libertine/Libertinus Mono, Triplicate, Prestige Eli

> is it also accurate to say that proteins may fold differently based on temperature, ph, and other factors? Yes, look up “metamorphic proteins”.

AlphaFold knows very little about the physicochemical mechanisms governing protein folding and doesn’t give any new insights either. The way it samples conformational space is very different from Folding@home’s molecular dynamics based appr

It is quite common to use predicted models as an aid for phasing and molecular replacement; even Foldit models have been adopted for that purpose: https://www.nature.com/articles/nsmb.2119

Are there other light color schemes similar to Solarized? The only one I have found is “Base16 Atelier Dune Light”: https://base16.netlify.app/previews/base16-atelier-dune-ligh... EDIT: Thanks for the suggestions!

I am aware of the Compose key, but have yet to find a good key to map to it (I use AltGr for third and fourth level characters already). I’ll keep it in mind in case my setup breaks down in the future.

In the end, font contrast also involves the simple stuff, but the difference in perceived luminance depends on more than just foreground and background colors.

See https://medium.com/alex-couch-s-portfolio/type-hierarchy-and... for some of them. The “blurry eye test” mentioned there is related to the typographical term of color (see https://bigelowandholmes.typep

Are they? Font contrast is a multifaceted concept that encompasses not only color but other properties as well. For instance, stroke weight and its modulation, which are inherent to a typeface.

This article is about software frameworks, by the way. The capitalization made me think it was about the Framework laptop.
