  I know someone (not me) who hid a sentences expressing his
  intention to leave the field to never return in his diploma
  thesis in a certain field in a similar way.

  In 1605, Sir Francis Bacon described a code hidden in

maոeге te νоlo ԁоnec νenero

  . If you read this with a Unicode enabled system, you will
  see a text like

manere te volo donec venero
(I want you to stay until I come.)

  , but some letters are actually non-ASCII letters! (Francis
  Bacon did not have Unicode, but used two different fonts.)

  Now, let's look at the pattern of ASCII versus Unicode:

AAUAUU AA UUAA UUAAA UAAAAA

  , in groups of five,

AAUAU UAAUU AAUUA AAUAA AAA

  . This is a binary code, giving,

00101 10011 00110 00100

FVGE

  , meaning "fuge", "Flee!".
