Most of the code snippets in this blog are rendered as white on a light background, meaning they are difficult to see.

I didn't see this with Chrome but did with Firefox (perhaps there is some dark mode setting difference).

This article is actually in the repo as an HTML file, it seems that all articles before some point in 2020 are. After that they are Markdown and use a theme (https://github.com/avianto/hugo-kiera).

Articles that use the theme are ok, the HTML ones are not because they hard code the background colour for this.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. I'm not sure we will be able to fix it though. I wonder if converting the HTML files to back to Markdown would be possible.

Hi, thanks for looking into it. I am using Chrome (with darkmode enabled), so I wonder why you saw a difference.

Fixes llvm#52

Sort of. Articles pre-sometime in 2020 are in HTML form and with
https://github.com/JohannesKaufmann/html-to-markdown they convert
pretty well but not enough to mass convert them.

But since I put the effort into trying it I figured I would clean
up this one that had been noticed.

I used a script to reformat the header, html2markdown to
convert and then added back some plain text/monospace/code markers
where they had been missed, and removed some escapes that got added
because those plaintext bits weren't marked properly.

Now that it's Markdown, Hugo's theme will apply and produce the
right colours for light and dark mode.

The URL of the post will be the same.
