>> Black on white? How often do you see that kind of contrast in real life?
I mean where these people live? Don't they read anything on paper? Don't they look ad ads on the road, ads on TV. God, is this a plot on our eyes?.
The paper color of good books isn't glaring white, either, but has a slight yellowish tint. FWIW, I think the background color of HN might be a nod to that.
