I can't read this site for more than 10 seconds before my eyes start to bleed.

Hehehe. Someone doesn't like the `Homebrew` setting on Terminal ;).

Oddly enough it didn't bother me when I was reading it, but now it's messed up my colour perception and everything looks pink.

In the bad old days before ubiquitous color bitmapped displays, people used monochrome monitors that often used green on black or amber on black. More likely than not, jwz's color scheme is a homage to that.

I really don't get why there is so much complaining about this every time someone posts a link to jwz's blog. Personally, I don't find it difficult to read at all. If anything, I prefer light text on dark background.

I guess we have it easier than someone who's colorblind, I guess.

Out of curiosity, how are your terminal colors configured?

I use homebrew terminal colors and I still find it painful to read the type on Jamie's blog. Font choice is a big part of it. I also turn down the opacity to soften terminal.

Same. It really hurts my eyes.

If it's any consolation, I'd like to present you both with these trophies, and perhaps jwz could throw in a voucher for a free pizza.
