I have not proofread this yet. I will try to do so tomorrow and merge if everything looks good.

I really like the formatting in discourse, where after each bullet, there is some vertical space. The blog post feels like a wall of post.

The markdown is the same in the two locations, so presumably it is a difference in the parser/renderer (which is probably not easy to change) and in the CSS (which is probably what can be edited easily).

It seems that deleting .container ul li p {margin-bottom: 0;} is enough to fix this difference.

right here:

www.julialang.org/_layout/head.html

Line 19 in 8c61401

.container ul li p {margin-bottom: 0;}

But I do not know why this was added in the first place.

[ViralBShah]

Do you or someone here know how to fix that?

[Krastanov]

Deleting that particular line of css should be enough. But someone presumably added it 6 years ago for a reason. I would not be able to take care of reviewing (manually or with a script) all the rest of the website for location that might be broken after such a change, at least not in the near term

I'll give it a shot when I find some time.
