Unicode in filenames can be a bad idea, since there are more than one way to achieve what looks like the same character. So matching patterns could fail if you think it’s one way, but it’s actually another representation in unicode.

I guess. It invoked some emotion for sure, something that research and policies usually don’t. For me, I still don’t know what to do differently. I’ve heard the statistics and it’s scary and sad. I want women to be safe and equal and all that. But what’s the plan here, which path leads to a different world? Does it help if I just sit around and feel bad about myself? I don’t think so. It just alienates me from half of the human population. But what actually helps? The message I receive is mostly just “feel bad about yourself.”

Yes. By convention based on old reasons though. When computer screens became common they were low resolution, and a whole genre of serif fonts were made to look good on screens and low-end printers. Good fonts, but adapted to look good in pixel grids. Microsoft made Georgia, Adobe had Utopia to serve the same need. A font like Centaur would just not survive on a screen. Sans serifs worked better, especially the ones with straight lines, Helvetica is easier than Optima on a screen. But now… phone screens and regular screens are good enough to display serifs, but now we are used to sans serifs online. But there’s no real reason for them anymore.

Jenson-like fonts are rare to see online, but always nice.
