A web page is a combination of a structured document and a separate stylesheet. The same structured document can be styled in radically different ways just by changing the stylesheet. This is how a website can offer different skins, light/dark mode, etc.

Consider this basic HTML document:

<html>
   <head><title>Test Page</title></head>
   <body>
      <p>This is a paragraph.</p>
      <ul>
         <li>This is an unordered bullet-point list item</li>
         <li>This is also a list item</li>
      </ul>
   </body>
</html>

And here's a stylesheet to make the bullet points square:

ul {
  list-style-type: square;
}

Change the stylesheet and you change how the document is rendered. "Reader mode" is just a minimalist stylesheet built into the browser.

A number of my repos are listed.

But the weird part is that it also lists a repo I don't recognize. The repo does actually exist on my github account, but it's marked as "ignored", and the description says it was automatically exported from Google Code. The code seems to be a MacOS shareware file encryption tool called "BitClamp", published circa 2008.

No idea how it got on my account.

"A keyboard? How quaint."

I like TOS Operation: Annihilate! because it presents a situation where a starship captain would be justified in issuing General Order 24. I'm disappointed that they didn't actually mention GO24 in the episode, but my headcanon is that the crew were all reluctant to mention it by name.

I think GO24 is deeply misunderstood. It's only ever been presented as a thing that a bad, crazy captain would order; as grounds for mutiny. So why would Starfleet even have such an order on the books? I think it's actually designed for situations like the one in this episode: to prevent the spread of dangerous life forms.

This interpretation also enhances my enjoyment of another TOS episode, A Taste of Armageddon. In this episode, Kirk actually invokes General Order 24. Scotty understands that Kirk needs leverage to bluff with, and plays along. Bluffing the bad guys by citing a public health ordinance is classic Kirk. See also Corbomite and Fizzbin

Don't stress over labels. They don't fit anyone perfectly.
