To whoever changed the title: it really was supposed to be "I � Unicode", not "I Love Unicode". The "�" symbol is embedded in the document as a raster image, so the author really meant for it to be that; it wasn't just a font rendering issue on your end.
- beefburger 12y agoAuthor here. The title was a pun. � is U+FFFD REPLACEMENT CHARACTER which may possibly replace a badly encoded heart.
- WallyL 12y agoIs the video of the talk available somewhere?
- nire 12y agoI'm one of the conf organizers: we were on a budget and didn't record any talk. Will try to fix that for next year.
- general_failure 12y agoRecording a talk only takes a phone these days? I know I know it won't be professional recording but I have good luck with just recording from the front row.
- sauere 12y agoI agree. A cheap (iPhone) recording is still better than nothing.
- panzi 12y agoIt won't be a recording that you could bear listening to. Even more professional setups/bigger conferences often screw up the audio so that the recording is basically binnable.
- zanny 12y agoCan't you just record the audio via whatever computer the mic is attached to? Syncing video to audio is always a pain, but I wouldn't mind desync to see it.
- panzi 12y agoYeah but for some reason they don't always do this. Also in case they actually do that part right, they often don't give people who ask questions a mic and don't repeat their questions. Then you don't have any idea what the presenter is talking about.
- dang 12y agoWe changed it back. Edit: Normally we take attention-grabbing Unicode glyphs out of titles since they disrupt the placid bookishness of HN's front page. But this is one is so tasteful and content-appropriate that it seems obviously a special case.
