you go on and off for years to improve your reading skills of #Kurrent / #Sütterlin, even trying to adopt the latter as your "secret" handwriting and then: first comes #AI and seems to make all of it redundant as #HTR improves incredibly; then you go to an exhibition at #DHMBerlin and discover that to read #OttovonBismarck (or his secretary) it was all useless in the first place as he seems to have written in a nice, simple #Lateinschrift
