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!".
