    Problems in this image

    1. SEO ads
    2. It’s a cipher, not a code.
    3. It was developed by Vail, not Morse.

      I learned the Vail/Morse thing from a Jon Bois video. His videos have taught me a lot of things, some useful, most trivial, but all stuff.

      I don’t see an ad in there but even so, why quibble on a dead man’s behalf that the communication method is called Vail’s cipher and not Morse code. It’s like taking up arms whenever a guillotine is mentioned.

          Well perhaps you’re right, though if I search for green apples and the first few results are from applecatelogue, I might not think that an ad so much as a search result.

          I see your point though, multiple of the same domain can seem questionable.
