I feel like we should go back to ASCII for programming languages. Does your IDE really need emojis? Parsing unicode is intractable.

- zzo38computer 1y agoI agree, and I still do use ASCII for (most) programming languages. I do not use emojis and most programs I wrote do not use Unicode (although often there is a use to go beyond ASCII, but even then, I will use better character sets rather than Unicode).
