I just discovered that macOS 14.x adds an invisible character to its screenshot filenames just before the AM/PM that breaks compatibility with older image editors and other software Unicode 8239: "Narrow No-Break Space" (U+202F) Anybody know a member of the macOS dev team?

I’m so sick of @FakeUnicode putting characters literally everywhere, forcing it, every show. literally why

I did some research about how browsers obey variation selectors and forced fonts and summarised them around here: (tl;dr: yes, inconsistent even for glyphs that are told to be "monochromatizable" by Unicode standard.) xitter.cf/myfonj/status/17585533…

Tangentially related: in theory some (/ most (/ even ALL(?))) COLRv* Emoji characters may / should / must (?) have a monochrome variant. I'm not sure whether there is some standard or authority dictating this, but certainly there is a mechanism for that. github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/…

pet peeve: as technological detritus from the era when every corporation was trying to cash in on the popularity of emoji, many unicode characters now are automatically replaced with emoji variants. even in text editors.

It is a travesty that newspapers and typefaces no longer support the "AP" ligature. @AP @FakeUnicode

Courtesy of Ron Gates: Beetox (Beet Oxnard) was a railroad spur for a sugar beet dump. It was close to Del Norte. This pic is taken between Del Norte and Central heading towards Camarillo. You can see Spanish Hills in the haze to the left.

uses of @FakeUnicode tags 1. uk flags (🏴gbwls<CT> = 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿) 2. whatever this is
This is a friendly reminder that anything build on @OpenAI's GPT4 via API is vulnerable to invisible prompt injection via unicode tags. It may take 2-3 attempts. See the screenshot:

Anyone aware of a #JavaScript library that sanitizes Unicode characters? I'm looking for something that replaces them with a meaningful replacement. For example, it'd replace ’ with ', ff with ff, etc. #nodejs

It's no exaggeration to say I was obsessed with Pee Wee Herman as a little kid. Pee Wee's Big Adventure is a perfect comedy and I still I reference this moment all the time.

I've noticed that getting Unicode right is harder than it should, often because people are not aware of some of the complexities behind it. I've written a blog post to (hopefully) shine a light on some of it: mcilloni.ovh/2023/07/23/unic… Hope it helps!
