Defeating AIs with a screwdriver

The Mojibake library runs its +4,500,000 unit tests on Linux, macOS, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, Haiku, Windows 11, and, of course, WASM.

I’ve updated Mojibake to Unicode 18.

Last night, I had the courage to publish the Mojibake C library I’ve worked on for years on Hacker News. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?

I’ve heard a lot of parallels: “the advent of AIs is like the advent of X back in the days”.

People hated books when they first came out.

In the Mojibake library I use the data of the Unicode standard UnicodeData.txt file.

I found that BibLaTeX nowadays supports URLs, Unicode characters, and all the modern stuff.

Some years ago, I was at one of those shops where you can buy useless, but funny, objects that you can forget in one of your desk drawers.

Hey!

One day, during a weekend, I was writing some code for my Mojibake library when I saw a strange output in my CLI for the U+10C0 codepoint chosen by random. .
