It seems like it refreshes from blank every time anyone joins or leaves the room. Which happens about once every half second. It leaves me too less time to write anything meaningful.

I can understand if author doesn't know how to use npm just for fonts yknow but he should definitely look to your comment and respond what his opinions are on the matter
Definitely curious as this seems a much better way to handle things ergonomically instead of the way author suggested way
I also feel like hosting your own cdn is definitely easy with this by just downloading npm package or embedding it directly I suppose?
There are definitely other ways to do this too. This discussion was really fun as I saw so many ways to embed fonts other than what I had known but this seems to be a mix and match between privacy and not having to embed it myself.
Featued in Terminator 2 and so slick all my friends asssumed it was just a movie prop, not a real device.
Also a weird feeling using an IBM XT (huuuuge computer) in school and the see a friend run the same software on his Portfolio. Disonnance and very much "the future is here, it's just not evenly distributed".
I wrote thousands of lines of C code on an Atari Portfolio, which was my portable development machine for a few years .. it had Turbo C on it, booted up real fast, and was all I needed to make tweaks in between visiting customers - I wrote database recovery software with it .. It was always very fun to break it out at the conference table upon arrival, make the needed changes (magic numbers), do a quick build and then plop the .com onto the target machine for processing ..
Still have those machines somewhere, great little devices.
If you squinted hard, the first iPhone was practically a 2001 PowerBook G4 (or a 2000 Power Mac desktop) in a pocket format. The CPU and GPU architectures were different but the performance was roughly the same. On the software side, all the OS underpinnings were carried over from Mac OS X even though the high-level UI framework had been trimmed down and somewhat redesigned for touch.
