I've been working on a web site to play and control MIDI and MusicXML files, with piano roll visualization, multi-track controls, tempo and transposing adjustments. Supports embedded PDF scores, interactive MusicXML scores and YouTube performance videos.

Some MIDIs and MusicXML files are provided, but you can also upload your own.

I made a minisite showing how Apple's chips have developed historically, and using that data to predict how future M generations might perform.

I feel genuinely sorry for you and send you the warmest wishes for a joyous holiday season and a happy New Year!

Are you implying that no one ever changes their opinions in discussions on the Internet? :D

Wow, that’s really surprising to hear. I hope you have found a different font where this is super-clear.

That’s ok, thank you for having a look!

That’s really nice to hear! Yeah, Iosevka is an absolute beauty :)

Yeah I’ve seen them, absolutely beautiful fonts. In the end everything is a compromise between many things :)

You’re very welcome, it’s a joy to hear that it works for others as well :)

Iosevka is such a nice font, ever-evolving, and surely what I would have used if I hadn’t enjoyed Victor Mono more :)

This comment is almost too intelligent to be posted here, but I really enjoyed it.

Glad you liked the compare view :)

Yeah, I know it’s a bit compressed, that’s the way I prefer it though.

Thank you for trying it out, and for sober and positive feedback :)

Thank you for being a voice of reason :)

+1 for Inconsolata, by the way, lovely font!

Yeah, this point exactly - intentionally altering or even subduing some parts of the code using color or style to actually recognize blocks of code more quickly. Maybe everything being at 110% legibility all the time makes the whole more time-consuming to scan sometimes. Maybe.

You might be firing yourself up a little too much over an opinionated font which is being offered for free. The web site banner and slogans are ehh lets say intentionally and super-obviously grand, if you get what I mean. (?)

I shared it so anyone else who likes it also can use it. It works really well for me. A few others have told me the same. That’s more than enough for me. It’s great that you have found something else that works for you. Peace, man! :)

Thanks for understanding :)

Well, then I guess you can just not use the italic style, or just substitute it for the oblique alternative, or choose not to use slanted style at all, maybe…?

Heh well actually I made the font for my own use.

Some others have liked it, others have critized features of it, like the italics and the ligatures. (Features one can easily disable in most sane editors, I might add).

I’ve been using it daily ever since I made it, and I like to believe it makes me effective and happy.

No one should obviously pick a font which is hard to read for them of slows them down. This font doesn’t do that for me personally. If it does that for you, yes, you should probably pick a font where legibility has been the sole focus. (Dyslexia fonts for programming, maybe?)

I have Booleans in italic (blasphemy!) :D and find it is immediately recognizeable that they are spelt correctly when the editor formats them that way. YMMV.

Ha ha good catch ;)

Ok. Well maybe disable them, then.

Typeface designer here. Thanks for trying the font and having lots of thoughts about it.

I guess the point is that it wasn’t first and foremost designed to follow as many font design principles as possible. If that’s what’s important to you, pick a font that follows as many of these principles as possible. :D

In the end, I guess I don’t really care whether I use 157ms to parse a sentence instead of 158 - although to me, the font is absolutely super-legible.
