@LinuxAndYarn @catsalad
The Accordion Ninjas are a joke that appeared on the other site ten years ago that made me and maybe two other accordionists (and maybe an organist) laugh

Years later I started making button/badges which have never sold tons — they’re so deeply inside 🪗 — but make me smile every time I see them

@luke helped make #Tango Ninja ones last year which dig the joke even deeper, but again 😹

They use the fab Accordion #Font you can encode messages with!

Three round white button badges with Accordion register symbols with the little circles and dots on them. Each one looks a little bit like a ninja face with eyes. The first one with just two dots is labelled “ninja”. The second with two dots and one like a mouth is labelled “surprised ninja“. The third with just one.in the middle is labelled “cyclops ninja“.
Six round white button badges with Accordion register switches on them all of which look a little bit like round cartoon ninjas. The first one is labelled ninja with two dots for eyes. The second is surprise ninja which has one.like an open mouth. The third is “pirate ninja“ which has one dot on one side like it’s Missin an eye. The fourth is labelled “piñata ninja, which has a one dot for a mouth and no other dots so it looks like its eyes are covered. The fifth is the “cyclops ninja” with one dot in the middle of its face. And the last is the “ninja master“ which is a master switch symbol with five dots. Like it has all the eyes it can have.

Pour programmer, j’aime vraiment beaucoup la très joli famille de polices Monaspace (notament la version Radon), mais je viens de découvrir Atkinson Hyperlegible (qui a une version monospace), et on peut avouer que le nom ne ment pas!

Abseits jeder politischen Bewertung ist uns für die nächsten Jahre typografisch einiges erspart geblieben. Das 'Scharfe S' in Felßner macht keine gute Figur in den aktuellen Überschriften. Wenn man es wirklich verwenden muss sieht man, wie viele Schriftarten diese Letter nur als Stiefkind aufgenommen haben – wenn überhaupt.

“Reimagining Fluid Typography” by @mia

> Never do pixel math with `em` and `rem` units. That’s where we went wrong, by assuming that `16px == 1em` is a reliable fact.

It reminds me a lot of what I was pretty vocal about a few years ago, including “People don't change the default 16px font size in their browser (You wish!)” and “Users DO change font size”.

But I don't understand how this code…

Okay so I really like the Commit Mono #font at

commitmono.com

But that website is a usability *nightmare*: it has keyboard navigation using via JS to make it feel like you're using Lynx, which is all well and good...

But if you click too many times, it will block your clicks for a couple of seconds and flash a message "try using the keyboard!" because they really wanna show off.

Then I went to download the font and I'm met with "Safari download not working, try Chrome."

C'mon. Wow.
