The article describes a hidden feature in the Domain Name System (DNS) that allows domain names to be written using Unicode characters, which are then converted to a valid Top-Level Domain (TLD) by the browser. This is possible because modern browsers follow the IDNA2008 process to normalize these characters, which are not recognized by DNS servers. As a result, users can create cool-looking URLs using these characters, but they may not work consistently across all websites and platforms.

In the early days of the automobile industry, electric cars were marketed towards women due to their perceived appeal of being quiet, clean, and easy to start, whereas internal combustion engines were seen as noisy and difficult to operate. This shift in marketing strategy was a significant departure from the common perception of women's roles in society at the time. Electric cars were seen as more feminine, in contrast to the 'masculine' internal combustion engines. The market for electric cars declined with the rise of gasoline-powered vehicles, but it paved the way for future innovations in the industry.
