for me personally, it's that I feel like I learn or get inspired by something cool every time you post — whether it's CSS or JS matters very little to me

Definitely true for B2C and bottoms-up B2B — but this relationship flips as your clients get larger

Arguably it'd be a UX problem in itself that the user didn't notice they had no license key

(I should note that the 95%+ stat refers to web pages. The internal representation of some programming languages like Java will of course always use UTF-16, though that's more of an implementation/performance concern, because they all let you specify any encoding when serializing to bytes.)

Nearly all new devices use USB-C, for mobile phones, headphones alarm clocks, computers, etc. UTF-8 has won the encoding war (with 95%+ usage: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Popular... )

100%. Shutting down new ideas is a safe take, cuz most of the time new ideas fail. But that doesn't mean there's no value in them, because standards are so valuable when they succeed. Then, people tend to forget that it used to be a new idea once, and treat it as if it had always been there.

An easier way is to use single-threaded programming languages
