05:02 | <Aki> | y'all what font is this |
05:10 | <Aki> | i cannot find that exact 9 in any font i've looked at |
07:12 | <snek> | i believe it is two fonts |
07:12 | <snek> | the "TC" is neutraface |
07:12 | <snek> | idk what the 39 is |
07:38 | <snek> | that 39 really is a mystery i cannot find anything that matches it |
07:38 | <snek> | inb4 the 3 and 9 are separate fonts too |
07:38 | <nicolo-ribaudo> | Maybe the .ai file for the logo has some useful metadata? |
09:03 | <Jonas Kruckenberg> | it may also be a logo-specific modification of some other typeface |
09:03 | <Jonas Kruckenberg> | the 9 looks kinda wonky in particular |
14:44 | <Aki> | everything is curves even in the oldest file i can find |
14:54 | <ptomato> | the "39" looks like Roboto to me, although I checked what it looks like in unmodified Roboto and the 9 is indeed off |
14:55 | <Chris de Almeida> | looks like helvetica or a variant like helvetica neue for the numbers |
14:58 | <Chris de Almeida> | top helvetica, bottom helvetica neue |
14:59 | <Chris de Almeida> | hmm, no, they are quite similar to the logo but def different |
15:06 | <Chris de Almeida> | SYG should know, I think he created it |
16:12 | <shu> | i did |
16:12 | <shu> | let me see |
16:16 | <shu> | i... thought it was Neutraface Bold |
16:17 | <shu> | but i see that the 9 glyph is not that 9 glyph |
16:21 | <shu> | i have no memory of what font the 39 is in |
16:23 | <Ashley Claymore> | Looks like an upside down 6 to me, maybe you were feeling extra creative that day? |
16:28 | <shu> | it shouldn't be particularly obscure, i did not spend a lot of time on it |
16:29 | <shu> | i suppose i could've manually edited the path but i don't really remember |
16:37 | <shu> | okay i'm pretty sure it's Roboto Bold, but the current version looks slightly different |
16:38 | <shu> | if you look at this font: https://github.com/erinmclaughlin/Yantramanav |
16:38 | <shu> | which is a devangari font meant to match Roboto |
16:38 | <shu> | the '39' in that font matches pretty much exactly |
16:38 | <shu> | which makes me think it had copied the number glyphs from 10 years ago |
16:38 | <shu> | and since then, Roboto has slightly updated |
16:51 | <Aki> | :interess: |
16:51 | <Aki> | thanks for your research shu |
16:51 | <Aki> | v helpful |
17:18 | <shu> | Aki: what're you doing with the logo? |
17:18 | <Aki> | Nothing for TC39. Possibly throwing together guidance on individual TC logos. |
17:19 | <shu> | ah |
17:19 | <shu> | well, i'm sure you can tell that this logo was specifically a nod to the community JS logo. i wouldn't think any of the design here generalizes |
17:23 | <Chris de Almeida> |
TC54 copied the style. what did they use Aki ? |
18:56 | <Michael Ficarra> | Roboto has an alternative glyph for 9 that appears to match |
19:04 | <shu> | ah interesting |
19:04 | <Aki> | Conveniently, Ecma's website also uses Roboto |
23:35 | <Aki> | OMG Y'ALL. 100% SUMMARIES AND CONCLUSIONS. |
23:35 | <Aki> | Thank you all so much! |
