We can send people to the moon but we can barely get dark mode right :)



We can't currently send people to the moon, unfortunately. SpaceX is working on creating that capability in the next decade or so though and with there track record it might even happen.


Yeah the last person we sent to the moon was in 1972, so long ago that Eugene Cernan has since died at 82 years old.


Is there an updated version of this xkcd somewhere? https://xkcd.com/893/


No, but there are four left, so we're tracking just above the 5th percentile line.


I think I remember hearing something about the Apollo astronauts having higher-than-average rates of cardiovascular disease as a result of the increased radiation in space.


The sample size is definitely not large enough to make such a broad generalization.


I would imagine that there are more medical details than this to the story.


I think "Darker Reader" extension got it right finally...

You'll get dark mode everywhere, automatically, with good looking dark colors.

I think it does that by leveraging color theory and CSS filters.
