You can flip 'em on in CodePen's Editor Settings if anyone wants to give them a spin that way. The mix-and-match is the coolest feature I think, which would be hard to pull off without them being designed very particularly that way. You can see it just a smidge on CodePen: you can pick which one you want to use, but comments are always set in Radon.
I've been playing with these. I think the "texture healing" feature is pretty clever. It's subtle improvement in the readability of monospace text that reduces distortion on the widest and narrowest letters without compromising the grid. Worth reading about for type nerds even if you aren't looking for a new code font.

Note: If you are a member and tried to log in, it didn't work, and now you're stuck in a neverending login loop of death, try disabling any ad blockers or extensions that you have installed on your browser...sometimes they can interfere with the Memberful links. Still having trouble? Email me!
This is the name that'll be displayed next to comments you make on kottke.org; your email will not be displayed publicly. I'd encourage you to use your real name (or at least your first name and last initial) but you can also pick something that you go by when you participate in communities online. Choose something durable and reasonably unique (not "Me" or "anon"). Please don't change this often. No impersonation..
Note: I'm letting folks change their display names because the membership service that kottke.org uses collects full names and I thought some people might not want their names displayed publicly here. If it gets abused, I might disable this feature.
