I received a "Welcome to Canada" SMS upon landing in Detroit. Did I miss something while I was in the air? 😅

@hugovk I missed @yngvem and Marie's talk about text encodings and unicode oddities during the conference, but just caught the video and it is quite great! Informative and entertaining!

@simon Leslie Lamport made a similar point in his keynote at #scale22x ( @socallinuxexpo ) recently.

The heading of that part of his talk was, "Why Programs Should Have Bugs".
