For me, the problem is different 🤔 I work in an environment with young people 👶 Young people who speak with emojis 💯 and they expect others to speak with emojis as well 🤝 So when I write a message or a mail 📩 Then I need to figure out which emoji I need to replace the periods with 😅 And the minefield is kinda terrible, since some of the “regular” emojis are considered highly passive agressive 🙂

This is hilarious to read for me because my mind automatically makes a pause after every emoji, longer than two periods, and it feels like every sentence is very emphasized. But the silence is filled with this not-so-serious emoji. Idk, hard to explain it

it’s better to just not. just let them do their thing, and you and i can continue sending actually legible communication.

Integer underflow. You’re supposed to put on 65535 accessories (or 2 billion, depending on your int size)

Oh no… I implemented my AccessoryCount as an unsigned BigInt for some reason. That’s more than the particles in the known universe.

I’ll just step outside on a clear night and claim that the stars themselves are my accessories. Is that too pretentious?

Our int max is the number of fingers we have, so 10

I fukken love me an interrobang. I have a shell alias on my computers that copies one of those bad boys into my clipboard so I can more easily display my shocked puzzlement. It’s very useful when dealing with msft products, especially Azure.

On iOS I have it set up as a text replacement. If I type ?! it is replaced by ‽

Android similarly makes it easy. If I just press and hold on ?, I get options for ¿ and ‽. Seems like mobile devices have worked out more convenient UIs for this type of thing.

I always bind compose key to right logo key on Linux. Then I can enter interrobang by pressing right logo, exclamation mark and question mark.

I always have a terminal open in the workspace on my other monitor so it’s just <super-j> interr <tab> <return> <super-;> <c-v>

wait, that makes me sound like an absolute fucking nutcase lol. I typed that first sentence completely unironically and only realized how absurd it was afterwards. It’s faster than the whole “type the Unicode point value” thing, but I should probably start using compose key instead.

Sometimes if they don’t get it the second time or don’t answer what I asked, I send the exact same email again.
