clojure mortal kombat bot competition anyone? lol

blugh, I wish browsers let me set a min font-weight. 100 is not a readable font weight for people with eye problems!

I think OS-wide scaling is the better option nowadays (even fractional scaling is pretty decent most of the time) edit: nevermind, you're talking about font weight... I read that as 100% font size

There's an addon for firefox, called Font Changer - maybe you could try that

Almost every website I visit I just automatically zoom into 150%. Most websites are unreadable at standard zoom 😞

I've got the font set to a specified one already via browser preferences. Maybe a custom build font which sets font weight 100 to a normal font? :P

you can use fontforge to make a custom font and serve that -- it's a hacky solution but indisputable 😄

Are there JS notebooks that I can host and run locally? I know Jupyter is an option, but something more Javascripty…

craftybones16:05:45

Actually, what I’d really love is a Gorilla Repl for JS. There is Runkit, but that’s hosted and I want something that can run on my machine

anthonyrrubin17:05:23

Observable maybe?

craftybones18:05:35

Can’t host it locally.

anthonyrrubin18:05:43

You sure? https://github.com/observablehq/runtime

anthonyrrubin18:05:01

Or does it always rely on their service?
