I’ve adjusted the width of posts on the blog, which I think makes them easier to read. I remember reading years ago that having between 12-15 printed words to a line was optimal for text “readability”, which I’ve maintained here since 2004. Aside from the fact I haven’t been able to find any concrete, scientific basis for this claim, I also know it’s not true for me. So I’ve widened it a bit. This should make sharing code snippets much easier too, without constantly resorting to breaking up lines with backslashes. Fatboy Slim did a song about that. By Ruben Schade in Sydney, 2026-05-07.
