Thanks for reporting. I fixed the error as soon as I read your comment.

This is the classic example of why you should always set the foreground color when changing the background color. Otherwise you end up with <code> blocks that are black-on-black. It probably works fine if your browser is in dark mode.

A workaround is to open one of the code elements in the browser's debugger and add color: white to the :not(pre) > code style.

MacOS Chrome? The code blocks look fine to me in linux {firefox, chromium, brave}. I think they're all using Qt.

Now, it looks fine to me too. I tested it in Chrome,Firefox, Safari on macOS and on Safari on an iPad yesterday when I wrote my comment and in all cases there were black lines all over the the place. The author corrected the problem, see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48855382

Looks fine to me in Chrome on Mac.

I get this on both FF and Chrome.

My first thought was that the article was redacted lol
