What Hacker News says?
I’ve been following Hundred Rabbits’ Rekka[1] and Devine[2] for a while. Their sites are full of interesting tidbits on different topics and projects. If you liked the article I recommend having a look at them. [1]: https://kokorobot.ca/site/home.html [2]: https://wiki.xxiivv.com/site/home.html

HN discussionTo me, it looks like creating a font isn't terribly difficult based on https://kokorobot.ca/site/making_a_font.html . That said, I'm a no-talent hack and I'm sure any font I created would look like I ate and subsequently vomited off-brand crayons onto the screen.
