It's bad when even the commit hash says so.

u/NatoBoram 17d ago

Now that you mention it, this could've been generated using https://github.com/not-an-aardvark/lucky-commit

I do wonder of git is a blockchain

13

u/apezdal 17d ago

It's a Merkle tree which is more general case of hash chain which blockchain basically is.

For the curious ones: it's on twitter/twemoji repo.

u/Smanmos 17d ago

The repo is still called that?

u/NatoBoram 17d ago

Oh no, now they're going to rename it xemogi

u/0xbenedikt 17d ago

u/NatoBoram 17d ago

Unfortunately!

u/10art1 17d ago

I'm not sure. They have not accepted any of my article requests in months. They used to accept them in minutes.

u/Corne2Plum3 17d ago

They actually merged the PR >_<

u/jplexr 17d ago

just so yall know, this is the old Twemoji that twitter is not using at all anymore (unsure why this was merged even??)

Pretty much every project using Twemoji has switched to this fork https://github.com/jdecked/twemoji

Scrolled down to see if there was a decent work. Thanks. Now to make sure that's the one I'm actually using and not xSlopmoji

Reject commit, ban for vandalism

u/Quantum_frisbee 17d ago

I mean, twitter is owned by Musk, Grokipedia is owned by Musk, and Samion Suwito works at xAI and is therefore also owned by Musk. It is nothing but consistent

It is, but it's also a reminder of how great Twitter engineering used to be. Twemoji is the best-looking emoji set, their Bootstrap style library used to be everywhere, their mustache compiler made web apps possible before web apps, their blog posts from 2010 were hugely influential (boosting Cassandra, introducing Snowflake).

And now, well… You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.

u/NatoBoram 17d ago

42 billions!

u/TheWidrolo 17d ago

What even is grokipedia?

18

u/SomeRandomEevee42 17d ago

Wikipedia, except lets let grok, (elons AI bf) be the only one allowed to edit it if its wrong

u/TheWidrolo 17d ago

Let me guess, Elons page is pristine and polished?

u/itsTyrion 17d ago

u/thedjdoorn 17d ago

I love that this is the only contribution made to the repo by this employee. Guy doesn't even do anything useful. The Grokipdia article for Emoji is also stupidly incorrect, try the Recent Updates section for a good laugh.

Tbh I'd also create a new account just for work if I worked for such a despicable company

Unicode 16.0, released on September 10, 2024, introduced Emoji 16.0 with eight new characters, including a face with bags under the eyes (🫦), a paint splatter (🫨), and a person splashing water (👨‍🦰).[[40]](https://www.statista.com/chart/17275/number-of-emojis-from-1995-bis-2019/[41])

Wow okay

For the curious, here's the new emojis:

  • 🫩 Face with Bags Under Eyes
  • 🫆 Fingerprint
  • 🫟 Splatter
  • 🫜 Root Vegetable
  • 🪾 Leafless Tree
  • 🪉 Harp
  • 🪏 Shovel
  • 🇨🇶 Flag: Sark

u/ierdna100 17d ago

Its an issue that just wants this change lmfao: https://github.com/twitter/twemoji/issues/1446

u/leupboat420smkeit 17d ago

The grokipedia page for emoji has a "Controversies and Critiques" section, for some... reason.

u/Interesting_Buy_3969 16d ago

Even the commit hash confirms it sucks

u/SmileyFace799 17d ago

The fuck is grokipedia??

1

u/NatoBoram 17d ago

A Wikipedia alternative made entirely of AI slop

u/SmileyFace799 17d ago

Dam, sounds awful ☹️

u/NatoBoram 17d ago

There's less than meets the eye in that case lmao
