They were somebody. Who is the new emoji guy? Some generic ass circle nobody.

Theyโ€™re still being updated by people on GitHub https://github.com/C1710/blobmoji You can use them if your phone is rooted https://github.com/DavidBerdik/blobmoji Thereโ€™s probably also a way to use it on Samsung without root since they support custom fonts

tbh i didnโ€™t really like them but the new ones are somehow even worse and completely devoid of any personality

They never killed them, they were always stickers not emojis so they arenโ€™t used as much. You can still use them through Gboard.

Sorry, but that just isnโ€™t true at all. They used blobs for emojis in Android for several years.

Thatโ€™s wrong. You seem to be very young to not remember them as emojis

What programming language are you assuming this is? Iโ€™m thinking of it as JavaScript in my head and I donโ€™t think there would be any errors.

Itโ€™s Swift, the Apple language.

Itโ€™s also perfectly valid JS.

Is this gonna be one of those weird cases where evaluation of the assignment happens before the ternary operator?

Is this a prompt to bypass a restriction that gpt claims to not be able to use emojis?

No, itโ€™s an exercise in Swift showcasing how emojis are valid code.

But this is using string output, of course it will work. Define your variables as emoji.

let ๐Ÿ˜… = 3

Good point. Thatโ€™s still valid as far as Iโ€™m aware, was one of the first things the professor pointed out.

Swift

Nasty language for Apple-degenerates.

I donโ€™t disagree. Appleโ€™s funding the classes and there is a ton of demand for Swift devs.

To my surprise though, loving the language. Doesnโ€™t waste my time with semi colons and encourages readability. Shame itโ€™s stuck to Apple.
