I used to use emojis in my documentation very lightly because I thought they were a good way to provide visual cues. But now with all the people vibe coding their own readme docs with freaking emojis everywhere I have to stop using them.

Mildly annoying.

Check out this one I came across earlier - https://github.com/Jtensetti/fediverse-career-nexus/blob/main/README.md

It's a federated LinkedIn. ofc it's vibe coded.

or anywhere. Job descriptions for example.

ttbomk, emojis are legal function-names in both Swift & Julia..

The Swift example was damned incomprehensible, & .. well, it was Apple stuff, so making it look idiotic might have been some kind of cultural-exclusivity intention..

The Julia stuff, though, means that you can use Greek symbols, etc, for functions, & get things looking more like what they should..

Also, I think emojis are actually better than my all-text style, for communicating intonation/emotion ( I'm old: learned last century ), & maybe us old geezers ought to adapt a bit, to such things..

That does NOT mean that cartoon "code" is good-enough, whether it's cartoonish in plaintext or in emojis, though..

I'm just trying to keep the cultural-prejudice & the code-quality being distinct-categories of judgement, you know?

( & cultural-prejudice is an actual thing, though it's usually called "religious wars", isn't it, in geekdom? )
