SPF/DMARC/DKIM make this all a bit more complicated now. There are plenty of MTAs out there that will refuse to send you mail if it's not all correct.

That's a good question. Comparing the Softbank emoji from June 2008 [0] and the initial batch of Apple emoji that shipping in iPhone OS 2.2 (Nov 2008) [1], it doesn't look like there are any missing at all, it's a perfect 1:1

Genuine heroism - a willingness to step up when needed - isn't a bad thing in itself. But /needing/ a hero just to function means the system is fundamentally broken. Maybe it's a bad process, maybe it's understaffin

I would love to see some stats with this. What countries gain/loss the most? Which countries are the last changed? What areas are the now the most countries away from their original country?

It’s fine if you have a differing opinion on flag design, but comparing vexillology advocates to murderous cultists is a bit unhinged

Exactly, for a busy celebrity, having a canned answer is a polite way to acknowledge a fan and give them a little thrill. They don't have time for a genuine, heartfelt conversation with everyone they meet.

Every OS is opinionated, that doesn’t mean they all automatically equally good or bad. Individual implementation choices matter.

This is interesting but what would be more helpful is context about what contemporary audiences would have known and thought about these places. After all, Shakespeare undoubtedly had good reasons to choose these references.

This answers the title question but the most interesting part about the article is the fascinating way in which the locust’s behavior is triggered by crowding. An amazing biological adaption. It’s well-worth reading the whole thing.

Ah, I thought that could be the case but didn't see it listed in Merrium-Webster [0]. Seems like it is legal jargon, so might be better to use plain language here. 0: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/tre
