Sorry, I'm having trouble reading your article. The font used doesn't have a line in the middle of the letter 'e', so reading it is difficult. w7, chrome (with javascript disabled, adblock, flashblock, etc)

thanks! We're going to change that font ASAP.

We fixed it on the blog. We still have to address it on the main site. Google's Open Sans looks awesome on OSX and Windows/IE & Firefox. But it's totally busted on Chrome on W7. Go Figure.

Why do you disable javascript out of curiosity?

Nothing against any site in particular, but these are things which I hold against most websites:

1. Page load times

2. Ads, interstitials, popups, screen-coverers

3. Those annoying bars at the top or bottom of a page that move with the page. Or the ones that pop out when you've read 2/3 of an article.

4. Auto-playing video and ads with sound.

5. Javascript exploits are uncommon (tinfoil hat)

I want a flat web, and disabling Javascript gives it to me. Thankfully, Chrome lets you whitelist sites.

I'm on Chrome v22.0.1229.92 on W7 and am still seeing the issues described above while viewing the blog article.

I'm sure I fixed this, can you check the cache? (We should be properly cache busting).
