Tangent: when I opened this, I thought, “hot diggity, that is one fine serif font!” Then I looked closer and realized it’s the same font I’m using on my blog: Valkyrie by Matthew Butterick [1]. Nice to see such lovely typography on the web!

Your site is unreadable.

Well, the white-on-grey colourscheme is quite unfortunate as it does make the text a bit of a blurry mess, but the formatting is fine. That is to say, on desktop the font size is well chosen and the line length is reasonable (if maybe a bit short).

...Just to be sure though, you are aware that the link in his post isn't his website, right?

That is a link to the font, not their website.

I'm sorry to hear that you think that. I just changed the color scheme and point size; I'm curious if that makes a difference.

Note that Wingo is the one that re-architected Guile Scheme to its current setup, which is a vm with JIT. Hoot is Guile Scheme compiled to WASM.

Does anyone know if an effort to get Guile to run in Windows without wsl. I feel like guile is the only other scheme with an ecosystem to rival Racket, but I’d love it if I could support Windows users as well
