It is a good question, I have read mixed reports about the effectiveness as well. Besides specific typefaces, there are also techniques like bionic reading. https://www.indwes.edu/adult-graduate/ng-blog/stories&#x2

Thank you for the correction. I thought I had read it was part of the initial design consideration at one point, but reading about it further again, I think the discovery that it helped dyslexic readers happened after the typeface was made

It seems like this isn't very well known, but the design of Comic Sans is actually intended to help children with dyslexia. The creator of Comic Sans also talks about this in his lectures. Listening to him talk about the design of the

Except that I live in Canada where the laws are different. You may be able to record employees with consent in the workplace, but that doesn't extend into allowing an employer to apply surveillance into an employees private spaces and

Private contracts can not invalidate federal laws or rights, although many corporations would like you to think that.

In other countries such as Japan public transit is generally faster then private transportation. I think one of the reasons you see a low adoption of public transportation in some North American cities is because it can do the opposite and

I have been experiencing this personally, although it's more accurate to say the RHV/oVirt team was moved on to OpenShift Virtualization (KubeVirt).

If your website only works on one of the browsers, you are probably doing something wrong. It is not like it was in the 90s, it can pretty much be expected your website will work on all browsers, if you are following the current HTML/C

There is still a browser URL limit, I have hit it recently while applying a large number of filters to a search in Kibana.

You are welcome to hold this view, but that is not an accurate depiction of what is covered by the course material. This course was made available in 2020, but it is still relevant at the moment, if not more relevant. It is free and availab

Yeah, but try getting carbon repaired after a crash. It's not impossible, but it's also not as easy to work with as a material. That said a lot of new high end carbon bikes will come with crash replacement on the frame.

Just some general thoughts, so please understand I am not prescribing one over the other. The ride quality of a bike is largely dependent on frame geometry and manufacturing process. With a good layup, and geometry, carbon can be more stiff

I haven't looked enough to know if this is possible. In general I found that any browser push notifications I may receive have been better served from a dedicated application.

You have the ability to disable just browser push notifications, at least for Android. I actually find notifications useful, but they can quickly become useless if you are receiving a lot of irrelevant notifications. If you disable all noti

Hopefully it is of some interest. I didn't mean to include the time marker to skip ahead. The other link I included expands on the research by Suzanne Simardis that is mentioned. In Suzanne Simardis talk she also provides some practica

The ecology of a primary forest, and a tree farm, are not the same. Besides material use, forests also provide a number of benefits. There are a number of floods which have occured recently in over logged areas which highlight this. Sapling

It could be correct that the number of trees total is increasing in America, and that would be excellent if true, but healthy forests require trees that are left to become mature. It also means a complex forest ecology made up of more then

Seems weird to jump through hoops to keep an outdated JavaScript library with a custom prototype working. When you create custom prototypes this is the risk you take. Name your prototypes accordingly, so they are unlikely to clash anything.

This has been my experience with Citrix also, although I have heard it can be set up to work better. Has anyone had experience with HP Anywhere/Teradaci? I am curious how it would compare.
