I'm going to venture a guess that you don't write much rendering code or fonts.
A polluted standard makes it more difficult to implement the standard. In practice this is passed on to the user in performance and monetary cost, not in something more visible. The fact that you don't understand the problem is due to you not working with Unicode at a low level.
- nemo 11y agoIt was a joke. The amount of mind reading you believed you managed to accomplish from a setup and a punch line is pretty astounding. Maybe leave that to the magicians?
- iamsohungry 11y agoI'm sorry for mistaking your statement as an attempt to contribute to the conversation. It might have been clearer that it was a joke if it were funny.
- nemo 11y agoNo worries. Given the absurdity of the conversation there wasn't really anything appropriate to add but joking around, but the joke was meant for people who aren't humorless, so I understand why you'd be confused.
