Just install the readbility firefox addon or go to: https://www.readability.com/read?url=http://blog.zx2c4.com/6...

He said Chrome, so a Firefox addon won't do him much good.

It looks bad on Firefox too. I also gave a link which works on any browser, and that includes Chrome.

Same with Firefox on XP. Even though the article is very interesting, trying to read the very thin font hurts my eyes and I had to stop reading.

Would you post a screenshot of the blunder, please?

And here I was thinking it was just me...

EDIT: It's that 'LM Roman' font. Remove it and it will be fixed.

Hmmm so it doesn't render right on some browsers. Okay. I will fix this.

I really like Latin Modern/Computer Modern, just when it all goes to plan.

I've always found that font to be pretty terrible and makes Latex docs look less professional, but I guess if you are used to it from reading papers, it's the opposite.

Seems ok in IE though. The page looks like it's a latex export.

Actually, it's just a standard WordPress blog using the Latin Modern Roman typeface, which is based upon Computer Modern, the default in [La]TeX.

(I dig the TeX-lookalike WP theme, but it should really use other @font-face formats for compatibility, e.g., WOFF and EOT; that might make it look better in other browsers.)
