    Progress on variable Inconsolata: Here's ASCII at the 200 weight, 300 interpolated, and the existing 400 for reference.

    I made a screencast of my ideas on smooth interpolation for variable fonts, featuring test software which is written in Rust and the druid UI toolkit:

    Starting to get a sense of what other weights of Inconsolata will look like (the 200 and 900 are new, the 400 and 700 are the existing version).

    I've been messing with this and have a significantly better result, about 2x faster. Also SIMD looks very promising. It's all in the more_cubic_arclen branch. I want to let this go now, but can be persuaded to do a followup if people are sufficiently interested.

    Got my analog oscilloscope wired up to a sound source now. I think it's lookin' good. How many people would buy this as a VST? I'll probably do a free release though, as promotion for my other stuff.

    I tweeted earlier today out of feelings of anger and frustration. While I think this is likely quite mild by Twitter standards, I'm still sorry I did that. I want my Internet experience to be better, much better. If you feel the same, watch 's talk

    Analog oscilloscope emulation. Not SIMD-optimized yet, but all the calculations were designed to be. I'm happy with the way this looks.

    Yes, there's a good case that Comey should have been fired. Here's an analysis why it was wrong for Trump to do so:
