It is a nice idea, however Monotype missed something there...Take the Noto Sans and Noto Sans Hebrew...Both have coverage for the Basic Latin code-point...However those are totally differ...The size factor, the letter spacing and the pen width are all different between the two!!!
(And I do not know how it is with other languages, but in Hebrew it is almost unreadable on continuous text)

I searched google for how to do something. Turns out I found a link to an answer I posted years ago in QA for somebody else.
I'm glad CP can remember things longer than I can.

So, the question is, you don't remember the stuff you used to know a year ago?

And no, I look things up all the time and store in short term memory.

Many. many decade ago I worked for a large British Airline and called the technical help desk about using a particular feature. They claimed they didn't know how to help me and referred me to a "guy who knows all about this stuff"... it turns out that was me! So I explained it all to myself since I am a helpful kind of guy.
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

Hi everyone!
I'm new here and to programming/coding in general. I'm currently an IT systems/network admin and I'm growing a bit tired of the work. I still want to work with computers, but am not sure which way to go.
I've been going through all kinds of beginner books....html, some resources on Mac and Windows programming. Just trying to get my bearings and figure out which way to do with it, but the honest question is:
Can I make a decent living being a programmer/developer/coder? Will I have job security? Is being a freelance programmer a good idea or even feasible?
I've heard plenty of horror stories of development being outsourced, etc.
Can anyone out there speak of their experiences as a programmer, either at a 9-5 kind of job or as a freelancer?
I appreciate any insight and guidance.

Of course you can make a living from being a programmer, how good a living depends on how good a programmer and what kind of industry you get into.
I'd tread careful about being a freelancer, as I think you're pretty ripe for getting scammed. Looking at job postings on freelancer sites they're usually worded such that you know they're planning on ripping you off. You'd be better getting a normal 9-5 I think, then look at moving on to contract work if the freelancer thing appeals to you.
