Maybe now is a good time to remind everyone: your vision will deteriorate. Keep this in mind when designing.

When I first came to HN it wasn't an issue. Now I have to use my own app for it so the font (and some other things) are workable.

According to my eye doctor the screen time is causing eyesight issues earlier. We're not designed to stare at a bright light 40cm away all day.

May want to look at some eye exercises - or at least something far away.

Doctors would say the stupidest things. We are not “designed” for anything.

Evolution by natural selection of often regarded (somewhat by analogy) as a process of ‘design’.

If you like, replace ‘designed for’ with ‘suited to’.

'of' --> 'is', of course.

Is my vision that bad? No, it's just a bug in Apple's Calculator
