• How to Build a Semantic Search Engine for Emojis

  Along with alphanumeric characters, African click sounds, mathematical and geometric symbols, dingbats, and computer control sequences, emojis can be represented as Unicode characters, making them computer-readable.

The consortium solicits proposals for new emojis, and regularly selects which emojis will be... - Source: dev.to / 5 months ago

• How does localeCompare work?

  ASCII isn't the only encoding method. You're looking at unicode characters, which can be expressed as numbers just like ASCII characters based on the encoding system . More to your point, if you were already in the mozilla documentation, why didn't you just read their explanation of how it's handled? Source: about 1 year ago

• IrfanView

There are other utility programs that include similar functionality; personally, I'm using Alfred, a keyboard-driven launcher,... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Little macOS Apps That Make a Big Difference in 2024

  My favourite discovery for 2023 was https://maccy.app/ which provides a Windows-style clipboard history. It covers off one of the few things I love from Windows. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago
