Kristin Everham, hand-lettering artist and card maker @hensonhandmade, is a programmer in her day job life. Today, Kristin shares some of the research holes she falls down at work. We talk about color wheels, the Element Inspector, and parts of websites you never think about that take programmers months to create.

The piece that Leah shared about barber poles and bloodletting was on History.com, called “Why are barber poles red, white and blue?”
