The International Energy Agency is calling for people to cut oil demand by working from home more, flying less and driving slower, as the Iran war rocks global energy markets. The agency says those measures, alongside steps such as sharing cars and switching to electric cookers, are needed to help with the “largest supply disruption in the history of the oil market”, which has pushed the price of a barrel of oil above $100.

The unit of measurement will be the Altman. A kilo-Altman will be roughly the intelligence of a cat.
I use his Monitor. The best Verdana alternative I've found.
I wonder if hinting that was made assuming the availability of anti-aliasing is valid when there's no grey-scale.
On e-ink, though: several of my purchased fonts work quite well on an old (10+ years) Kindle. In fact not one of them has this kind of artifact
I'm surprised to hear hinting is being abandoned ... I see modern fonts that use autohinter (eg Mass Driver fonts I think) and foundries like Klim or Typotheque brag about their manual hinting...
Good list there. Plenty of Storm and Sowersby. I love that both make old-styles that feel rugged and current.
How about Anselm Serif, by stormtype?
You should set the sharpness of your monitors/TVs to zero. See why: blog.silvela.org/post/2025-12...
Awesome, MathJax 4 supports choosing fonts. STIX2 is a clear upgrade over Computer Modern.
Austra has a new album out, and there art thou happy
si, pero, hay que pedirle conciencia política a todos los artistas/famosos? Yo casi prefiero alguien que no esté enterado y se escaquee, que un cuñado hablando de "sentido común".

Great typography news. At last these fonts have webfont files ... and quite affordable.
Sitka is phenomenal.

—¿Me vas a dejar a mi leer la novela?
—No, no te voy a dejar… ¿Vos sós intelectual?… Pues entonces, ¿para qué te la voy a dejar?, ¿para que me la leas mal y me la jodas?
I think that in 10 years we will look back with amazement at the credit given to Sam Altman et. al.
Hay comentarios, por ejemplo, de Elmore Leonard diciendo que las guionizaciones de sus libros de Scott Frank clarificaban la idea.
De acuerdo, pero eso asume tb. que el escritor consigue exactamente lo que se había propuesto. Eso no tiene por qué ser verdad, no?
Por qué es eso "traición"? El libro de Sentido y Sensibilidad por ejemplo, mejora mucho en la adaptación de 1995. Mas concentrada y menos maniquea.
Great name.
How about Fanny Price Is Right?

Scientific experts are the worst kind of experts, except for all the other kinds of experts.
ah, vale, no había leído la columnita de marras.
Pero es una cosa que pienso a veces. Que aunque los dos bandos se consideren moralmente superiores, solo uno de los dos plantea discusiones morales.
Pero hay una diferencia, no? La izquierda dialoga e intenta persuadir de sus posiciones morales. La derecha de patria y dios, mira mal a los que considera fuera, y ya.
When they figure out a cure for cancer and global warming in the next couple of months, will they share it with us?
