    Offtopic, but the hinting of the body font is absolutely atrocious. Eg the lowercase `u` reaches way higher than the other lowercase letters.

    Perhaps you just didn't push it far enough: I took a 90% pay cut and am happy with it :)

    Huh. The person you're replying to specifically mentioned they connect to the same tmux session from different computers. Niri is great, but how's it relevant here?

    Likewise you haven't disproven my thesis that China is not closed to immigrants. A good friend of mine (white European) was approached by a Chinese company and now works in China. …

    What's up with the dercuano, derctuo, and dernocua naming? Are there just these three? Does the naming follow some pattern?

    I almost fell off my chair! Elm is easily my favourite language, and I didn't think it'd ever get another update. Thanks Evan!

    It looks slightly worse to me. Slightly worse and not even ubiquitous? [Edit:] There's h1 and h2, who'd ever need h3? You gotta be kidding me!
