And<br/><br/>X-Ray Spex - Germfree Adolescents<br/><br/>because I only discovered that album 3 years ago despite the band having been in my peripheral for over 30 years. Dismissed it then because it looked soft and poppy but the joke&#39;s on me -- it&#39;s an absolute banger and I am still making up for lost listening-time. 2024-08-20T06:50:15Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsz4nrxmktsp3uxj90784f2tc95vvldy70cwv6wl5paue56swmrjmqzyqkje4mfxmrlqxpc885sspsdzmzf8x5kwl062jphwaktusce9uvrgz4nlwk My #CSSDay talk &#34;Problems Solved By OpenType&#34; got almost 1500 views, which hopefully translates to almost 1500 developers exploring what their fonts can do!<br/><br/>I&#39;m pretty proud of this talk, stuttering and mumbling and all, and I hope you&#39;ll check it out if you want to get the most out of your webfonts! I tried to make typography accessible even if you aren&#39;t (yet) into ligatures, alternates or all the other fun stuff fonts can do.<br/><br/><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TreBK-EyACQ">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TreBK-EyACQ</a><br/><br/>#typography #css 2024-08-16T13:49:30Z
