    Ok this is kinda unrelated but the phrase “looking back on my life” triggered a meta-memory of one of my favorite lesser known Green Day songs from my adolescence, and I’ve decided to subject you all to the lyrics of the first verse/chorus.

    Looking back upon my life and the places that I've been 
Pictures, faces, girls that I've loved, I try to remember when 
Faded memories on the wall, some names I have forgotten 
But each one is a memory, I look back on so often

I look into the past 
I want to make it last 
I was there 
I was there

    Thanks, hadn’t heard that one in a while.

          Weird, I’m on desktop. Maybe it’s my theme: darkly-pureblack. Anyway, here’s how it looks on my end:

            Mine (web browser) does the same. Looks as if [programming code] syntax hilighting failed at determining the programming language but hilighted some possible keywords anyway. iow:

            if viewing_app.defaults['hilight_code'] == true:
  try(codeblock.interpret('is this Python somehow?'))
