> Keep politics out of tech

This is a wild thing to say in 2025.

What 'political views of flags' anyway? I played a few levels and saw no flags, political or otherwise.

It is indeed not quite a drop-in replacement for the 'real' Notepad, but I do find the complaint that you need to enable JS for something that has 'JS' in its name a little strange. That's the platform it was made for, it may not be a platform you enjoy using, and it could perhaps have been made on another platform, but it wasn't. That's hardly a reason to call it "not serious".

You could also simply take two photos and overlay them. The difference would be obvious immediately to the human eye.

This is indeed what is argued in the article.

Consider this for a while longer yourself. Even if many such paintings have been made in easily accessible locations and they do not survive for this reason, the fact remains that more than a few cave paintings have turned up in locations that are very inaccessible and were likely also very inaccessible at the time they were made. The paintings appear to be complex enough that they cannot be discarded as merely graffiti by people who found themselves in an inaccessible location by accident and wanted to leave a mark.

Survivor bias explains why these paintings still exist. It does not explain why they were made.

A lot of related code was released a couple of years ago: https://github.com/farbrausch/fr_public
