I've tried so many Chrome reader mode extensions and couldn't find any that handled code well, or at all. So I ended up making my own. It's got a lot of options for customization but I'm thinking of adding more code theming options.Would really appreciate you guys checking it out and letting me know how it works for you and if there are any features I should add.
Like you’ve noticed, it appears to me that the state responds with much more violence to protests explicitly against violence than protests about other issues. I wonder why that is?
It’s no wonder that the protests over the last 20 years haven’t worked to garner more support considering that those who do participate are treated with violent retaliation. Maybe if those of us begging to be heard were allowed to speak, and scream and chant, it would inspire more people to unite, organize and vote.
I understand the word "dependency" to be synonymous with what you're calling discontinuation effects. So, I think I agree with you now. Thanks for the following up with your clarification.
> They don't cause dependence.
You say that with such authority, but in my personal experience they can absolutely cause dependency. I've had long-lasting withdrawal effects from certain SSRIs that were both physically and mentally painful.
Yes, this is my top requested feature for DDG. As a web developer, results are very time sensitive. It's more than a nice-to-have feature when you need to discern the validity of the subject matter based on which month it was published.
Excellent resource. Thanks for sharing.
The end of Moore's Law does not mean that processing power will stop improving. It just means that there will likely be a slower rate at which the number of transistors gets doubled. Say, 3 years instead of 2. I think there is a physical boundary to that, but Moore's Law doesn't really address that.

So, I'd really love some feedback on this project. The premise is that there is a certain amount of value in knowing that an image you are using won't end up all over the place. But traditional rights-managed photos end up costing a ton of money.
We are hoping to find the sweet spot in between mass sales of royalty free images and high cost of a completely exclusive license.
What do you think of the price and how much value would you put on the limited sales? Would 10 sales at $50 an image be more appealing. Would an option to "buy out" all the licenses be useful.
Please let me know if you have any questions. I'm really curious to know what you guys think. Thanks.

Sorry for the lack of those glyphs. I really hope to expand it soon to make it more useful. Thanks for the interest though.
Very helpful. Thank you very much. I'll keep tweaking the kerning and consider those optical adjustments moving forward.
Thanks for the heads up on those issues. I'll take a look at what's going on there. This is my first font so I'm still new this troubleshooting stuff. Thanks for your feedback!
Thanks for sharing my font! you're awesome.
cool. thanks for the link.
Thanks. I used a combination of Glyphs (
http://www.glyphsapp.com/) and Illustrator, and of course some sketching. This was originally just a custom wordmark for a side project and then I decided to just keep expanding to the rest of the alphabet. I definitely plan on putting all the source code on Github for people to contribute to. That would be awesome.
Hey everybody. I'm the designer of Norwester. Thanks for the interest and feedback. Yea, the font is really limited right now. Please use it judiciously as there are a lot of glyphs not accounted for, as digitalengineer pointed out. Please let me know if you have any special requests or catch any thing not looking right. Thanks again!
