This looks really nice. I usually use SF Mono with Fira Code’s ligatures, but I’m going to try this today and see how it does. Great job on the simple license, too. I wish more fonts had a license like this.

Thanks — I'll give these a try! Each year, I try to read a handful of books that expand my world views, so these sound great. :)

This is interesting. Can you suggest any books or articles about the power climb?

Pittsburgh resident here. I’ve lived in four different neighborhoods over the last 10 years (and spent time at Google’s offices in Bakery Square) and haven’t experienced any of these issues. (Not to say the author didn’t experience this — i

That's perfect. I'm glad you're not going through a centralized server. My email is at the bottom of my about page: zeph.co/about About Dribbble – a Pro plan might help you get featured more often, but I'm not sure.

Firefox keeps getting better. I really want to switch. The only thing that’s holding me back is the design. It just doesn’t look as modern as Chrome or Brave. The back button is a different height than the search bar; the tab container does

This is one of the most refreshing designs I've seen in months. It's absolutely beautiful. I'd be interested in a Mac version. I don't know anything about the engineering behind an email client, so I'm curious about

I commend your effort. Humanity likely would've progressed more from the application of this data than it would with you working on leveraging autonomous blockchains (not that that's a bad gig either). I think the general takeaway

Nice work. I like the design, and the names you generate are better than others I've seen on similar sites. Question – why is "anrdoezrs.net" prepended to all of the buy links? (I'm assuming it's an affiliate link?)

I remember a story about an electronic musician who preferred to mix his songs with earbuds/headphones instead of with a high-end megabucks studio sound system. His reasoning was basically, “that’s how my fans will listen to my music,

Author here – the majority of developers in the 2019 State of JavaScript [0] said that they didn't know Svelte but wanted to try it out. I was the same way, so I spent the weekend learning it, and I put together a few basic examples to

I appreciate this analysis and agree with some of the points, although I have to add: for any interface that I use daily (such as a file management system), I prefer the modern version — flat design and all. I don’t want heavy borders to sh

This also applies to features. Easy example: if you’re implementing commenting on a social media app, you could use a textarea instead of embedding a rich text editor. The simpler option usually decreases your overhead and helps keep your p

I know the “safe” decision in a boardroom is to suggest whatever makes the numbers go up, but this post is right. People push it too far and damage their products in the process. Examples: I no longer click on Quora in search results. I’ve

Related: I was bored last Sunday, so I decided to install Sublime Text. I'm normally a VS Code user, but VS Code is built on Electron and it felt a little sluggish for certain files, so I wanted to give something else a try. I've

Ah, I stand corrected. The content box width is indeed based on the viewport size. My text, however, is still rendered in 14px Courier on macOS (and even given a .monospace class), so I'm not sure what's going on there. I just upd

I can confirm that it's still loaded by an experimental flag. As a word of warning to anyone who wants to try it: the design isn't suited for reading at length (120 character line width, set in Courier). It's really not that

Yes, that's correct. The author is fairly active in the indie maker community, so maybe he pulled on his network?

There’s some negativity in this comment section, so I just wanted to say that I really like your product. I’m glad you’re working on making it sustainable before spending more time on the open source version.

I’m impressed with this system, but I’m even more impressed with the author’s writing style. I’d love to see more technical posts written with this level of clarity.
