Some very basic html with no css would be much easier to read than parsing markdown in my head. Machines should do machine work, not people. Edit: still love idea and execution, thanks for sharing!

Self learning is one thing and being completely on your own without a way to ask specific questions on the daily basis is totally another. If there is no one to answer your questions in your company - try and find some buddies on the intern

In a course on algorithms I took in Moscow State Uni (Russia), we were told there are two ways to describe a Turing machine: - One with a tape & state transition table - A string & a list of string replacements Then we proved this

I don't care about Mandrill (who uses it, anyway), but deeply concerned if I should expect same quality, incident response and attitude to customers from parent company — Mailchimp.

That's clearly not true. You'd have a phone number if you are a customer. Even with Gmail — GSuite offers decent phone support. The fact that you cant reach a human if you are a "user" tells a lot about values at Google.

I wish you'd have dived into software part of rendering text. Fonts, scaling etc. Great article, thank you very much!

I was in this camp too, but bought iPhone X and very satisfied. Bigger screen and easier to read. It’s interesting that iPhone XR has some other virtual resolution, so text on the default settings is actually smaller than on iPhone SE. Don’

Using webkit engine to build a browser is not skinning Safari. There is much more to the browser than rendering engine.
