  • I love the new @Expedia commercial, especially as it’s the first commercial I’ve seen featuring a single mother without pretext.

  • .@mr_springtime rem is designed for this still thinking in px instead of those thinking (and designing) for the fluidity of the web.

  • @mr_springtime …fonts around them, what ems are designed for. The rem unit decouples the font relationship.

  • @mr_springtime because rems don’t compound, they are conceptually very far from em units. You want font sizes relative to the fonts…

  • @mr_springtime If you’re using rem to hit a certain px value, understand re-evaluate the design; no such thing as px perfect.

  • @mr_springtime The fact that the most common fallback is px is likewise bad. If you’re doing em fallback, don’t bother w/rem

  • @mr_springtime When architecting a website, the fact that ems compound should never come as a surprise. If it does, need to re-architect.

  • @mr_springtime Bad. If you are needing to deal with lots of compounding, it’s probably a sign you should re architect how you deal w/fonts
