If serif font then I if sans font then l
I'd rather have curvy-l for both cases. Otherwise, the unadorned vertical line would be a lower case l when you're reading a serif font, but a capital I when reading a sans-serif font. That inconsistency and potential confusion is an issue with the alternation approach.
of course not IQfy is an expert in everything and just gets it's 100% right the first time. why would we need garbage like this? In fact every letter I type shows up as password dots, I literally program like this in C. git gud.
thank you for reminding me to fix this garbage
font designers think they are enlightened to aesthetics, then give us that barcode soup, unworthy of our grace

I hate it that uppercase i and lowercase L look the same on many sans-serif fonts. Frick you, Arial.

On my machine, it was defaulting to Nimbus Sans. I changed to Noto Sans. Actually, I didn't like how much "wider" the characters were with Noto Sans; it made everything too spaced out. I didn't have a good alternative on hand, so after that screenshot I dropped the font size down to 12, which makes it look like this.
I'll still probably change to something else at some point, but I don't have time right now to go hunt for alternative typefaces.

Doesn't distinguish between I and l.
I see, I've not seen many sans serif fonts with a capped I.
I have firefox set up for sans-serif anyway.
Yeah the others I tested didn't distinguish them, either. I'm sure others exist, but I'm going to give it some time to see if I adjust to Noto Sans or if things still look wrong to me in a couple weeks.

Not in whatever the default Xterm font is.
tbh "just xtermss in a WM" is a way better UX than nearly anything else these days. People really should just accept it.
I use one of the monospace fonts and set it to 40 so I can read it from across the room. Any line that does not fit on the screen is bad code and must be reverted. I will open high severity cases until it's fixed.
can't say I confuse the two
funny man
I already use comic sans for everything
for me it's Comic Code
its actually easier to read

i don't use hardcoded values in my constructors
in fact, i try to do as much as possible at runtime to make static analysis gays work harder
Twitter OP is a homosexual. You can easily see the difference but I guess he needed to make a quip about Comic Sans for le updoots.

>no "both" option
If serif font then I if sans font then l
Which font?
On my machine, it was defaulting to Nimbus Sans. I changed to Noto Sans. Actually, I didn't like how much "wider" the characters were with Noto Sans; it made everything too spaced out. I didn't have a good alternative on hand, so after that screenshot I dropped the font size down to 12, which makes it look like this.

Is there a monospaced comic sans? I mean real comic sans, not any of these "improved" versions that ruin it, just comic sans made monospaced.

It really is a waste of ink though, when I print out my scripts to transfer them to other computers.
dammit I thought I was posting on /q/ all this time
There are fonts which don't?
OP is a faqqot
Lets test the font rendering here.

See, different.

I'm not blind or moronic so no.
Reminder that we solved this issue centuries ago.
2015 is when Society Went to shit.
I think the Harambe nexus event is when this timeline started going to shit. Or perhaps it was the Kony 2012 nexus event.

What is the font that turns the g into an upside ducky?

That's the least of his problems when he can't distinguish between q and g.
this bug was 100% created by a pajeet
>normal people never make typos, EVER!
So, what fonts DON'T distinguish between q and g? That's like saying "make sure your font distinguishes between h and n!!!"
>q g
>h n
>c e
>i j
If you can't distinguish these letters you're a pajeet or moronic

this is the best font for programming:

can't find it in gentoo repos, can't take it seriously
Of course I am. niqqer.
What monospace font doesn't?
What exactly is that Config {} block type structure whatever called?
𐑜
that's a struct constructor
You’d have to be severely mentally moronic to not see the difference there.
I still prefer when letters that would otherwise look similar are entirely different
I use one of the monospace fonts and set it to 40 so I can read it from across the room. Any line that does not fit on the screen is bad code and must be reverted. I will open high severity cases until it's fixed.
