Love that bit where MS says the future of UI is HTML5 + JS (a bit early to tell, but sure)... and UTF-16.
@rygorous I feel like what we really need is UTF-64, because once we make contact with the aliens, we're going to need a lot of new glyphs.

@cmuratori You mean UCS-8! UTF-8 (as originally specced) supports up to 31-bit codepoint indices.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@dmmfix@cmuratori They thoughtfully left 0xfe and 0xff free - UTF-8 can easily go up to and past 128-bit characters if we have to. :)
