   Hi new followers! FYI this account is currently being rehydrated after being in storage while I used cohost, but it will probably settle into mostly cooking, cat pictures, and socialist urbanism, with only occasional stuff about Swift.

     Marked lack of crossover content of this ilk imho

     @Catfish_Man wait, Taylor Swift or the programming language?

     @inthehands @Catfish_Man a post about blank space. Could be discussing a Swift song, could be talking about Swift handling white space in Unicode strings

     @crazybutable @inthehands oh I have one of those handy actually. CRLF line breaks have absolutely catastrophic unintended consequences due to being the only two byte ASCII grapheme cluster.

     @Catfish_Man @crazybutable
     Cause of Unicode correctness
     We’ll take this way too far
     It’ll leave you with a codepoint
     Or with a nasty char

     Got a long list of encodings
     They’ll take you linear time
     But I’ve got a blank space, baby
     And I’ll end your line
