    One of my colleagues submitted a PR with a bunch of emojis in the readmes and log statements and I’m just so infuriated with it.

      Our leadership made using and excelling at Copilot as one of our Key Results for upskilling, I make it point to make my code look as botty as possible to show how serious I’m about achieving the target 🎯

        There are plenty of non ASCII characters that are okay in code. ñ comes to mind. There are also box drawing characters.

          We don’t use them in my project, I only added an exception for ©®™ and such. You can easily whitelist any character range you need. My command looks like this:

          - (! grep -r -I -P '[^\x{00}-\x{7f}©®™°]' src)

            This is goofy, I’m not gonna fail a build because somebody used some random Unicode character. That’s draconian.
