I wonder if Nanni would be satisfied to know that over 3,700 years later, people still know that Ea-Nasir was an asshole?

How many unicode characters could you add to the standard until it becomes unreliable?

aparently unicode supports about 1.1 million characters, and we currently only use 96,382 as of version 4.0

EDIT: i just read that unicode 4.0 is very outdated, current version is unicode 15.1 with 149,878 characters.

A Unicode character can be up to 4 bytes, so 2^32 or 4,294,967,296 potential unique characters. And it’d be easy enough to adjust the standard to allow for an extra byte(s) if necessary – it’s been done before.

Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We’re all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don’t like a thing doesn’t mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
