Marianne Dissard
Saved by uncleflo on January 17th, 2022.
Singer and performer, lyricist and author, producer and filmmaker, or, as noted by producer BK-One in his liner notes to her ‘Best Of’ album ’Cibola Gold’, fearless… French-born American chanteuse Marianne Dissard is probably best known for the music she recorded in Tucson over her two decades of life in her Arizona hometown. She has toured her desert noir baroque Sonoran border pop worldwide from China to New Zealand, Europe to North America. A charismatic performer, her critically-acclaimed American chanson plays effortlessly with contradictions: ‘tender, yet abrasive; melodramatic, but vulnerable; comical and heartbreaking’. Equally so her first book, 'Not Me', an impish and poetic memoir and exploration of trauma and the life of a disordered touring musician, praised by some of Dissard's favorite authors; Mitch Cullin ('Tideland'), Chris Rush (‘The Light Years’), and Andrew Smith ('Moondust').

UTF-8 Sampler
Saved by uncleflo on June 23rd, 2019.
UTF-8 is an ASCII-preserving encoding method for Unicode (ISO 10646), the Universal Character Set (UCS). The UCS encodes most of the world's writing systems in a single character set, allowing you to mix languages and scripts within a document without needing any tricks for switching character sets. This web page is encoded directly in UTF-8. This, however, is a Web page, which started out as a kind of stress test for UTF-8 support in Web browsers, which was spotty when this page was first created in the 1990s but which has become standard in all modern browsers. The problem now is mainly the fonts and the browser's (or font's) support for the nonzero Unicode planes (as in, e.g., the Braille
and Gothic examples below). And to some extent the rendition of combining sequences, right-to-left rendition (Arabic,
Hebrew), and so on. The subtitle above shows currency symbols of many lands. If they don't appear as blobs, we're off to a good start!

RFC 3986 - Uniform Resource Identifier (URI): Generic Syntax (RFC3986)
Saved by uncleflo on June 23rd, 2019.
A Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) is a compact sequence of characters that identifies an abstract or physical resource. This specification defines the generic URI syntax and a process for resolving URI references that might be in relative form, along with guidelines and security considerations for the use of URIs on the Internet. The URI syntax defines a grammar that is a superset of all valid URIs, allowing an implementation to parse the common components of a URI reference without knowing the scheme-specific requirements of every possible identifier. This specification does not define a generative grammar for URIs; that task is performed by the individual specifications of each URI scheme.

Unicode character property - Wikipedia
Saved by uncleflo on June 23rd, 2019.
The Unicode Standard assigns character properties to each code point. These properties can be used to handle "characters" (code points) in processes, like in line-breaking, script direction right-to-left or applying controls. Slightly inconsequently, some "character properties" are also defined for code points that have no character assigned, and code points that are labeled like "<not a character>". The character properties are described in Standard Annex #44.

The Absolute Minimum Every Software Developer Absolutely, Positively Must Know About Unicode and Character Sets (No Excuses!)
Saved by uncleflo on June 18th, 2019.
I’ve been dismayed to discover just how many software developers aren’t really completely up to speed on the mysterious world of character sets, encodings, Unicode, all that stuff. A couple of years ago, a beta tester for FogBUGZ was wondering whether it could handle incoming email in Japanese. Japanese? They have email in Japanese? I had no idea. When I looked closely at the commercial ActiveX control we were using to parse MIME email messages, we discovered it was doing exactly the wrong thing with character sets, so we actually had to write heroic code to undo the wrong conversion it had done and redo it correctly. When I looked into another commercial library, it, too, had a completely broken character code implementation. I corresponded with the developer of that package and he sort of thought they “couldn’t do anything about it.” Like many programmers, he just wished it would all blow over somehow.

Data URIs
Saved by uncleflo on March 28th, 2018.
Did you know that you don't have to link to an external image file when using an <img> element in HTML, or declaring a background-image in CSS? You can embed the image data directly into the document with data URIs. Basically, a super long string of gibberish characters. It's not gibberish to the browser though of course. This data is interpreted as the type of file you are saying it is.

Which characters need to be escaped in Bash? How do we know it?
Saved by uncleflo on February 7th, 2018.
Is there any comprehensive list of characters that need to be escaped in Bash? Can it be checked just with sed? In particular, I was checking whether % needs to be escaped or not. I tried this and worked fine, without escaping %. Does it mean % does not need to be escaped? Was this a good way to check the necessity? And more general: are they the same characters to escape in shell and bash?

what is the meaning and use case of each URL encoding Reserved Characters
Saved by uncleflo on December 27th, 2017.
Quote from Percent-encoding. When a character from the reserved set (a "reserved character") has special meaning (a "reserved purpose") in a certain context, and a URI scheme says that it is necessary to use that character for some other purpose, then the character must be percent-encoded. Percent-encoding a reserved character involves converting the character to its corresponding byte value in ASCII and then representing that value as a pair of hexadecimal digits: What does each of this characters mean in context of an URI? with a search engine I didn't find a list and their meanings/use case.

How to support full Unicode in MySQL databases · Mathias Bynens
Saved by uncleflo on January 20th, 2015.
For a long time, I was using MySQL’s utf8 charset for databases, tables, and columns, assuming it mapped to the UTF-8 encoding described above. By using utf8, I’d be able to store any symbol I want in my database — or so I thought. While writing about JavaScript’s internal character encoding, I noticed that there was no way to insert the U+1D306 TETRAGRAM FOR CENTRE (팆) symbol into the MySQL database behind this site. The column I was trying to update had the utf8_unicode_ci collation, and the connection charset was set to utf8.

Unicode Character Classes in ECMAScript Regular Expressions
Saved by uncleflo on January 20th, 2015.
ECMAScript, the standardized version of the language JavaScript, defines string values as sequences of UTF-16 code units, not as sequences of characters. This language misfeature complicates Unicode handling considerably. For characters in the Basic Multilingual Plane (BMP) a single UTF-16 code unit (one 16-bit word) suffices. For characters outside this range, two code units are necessary. As an example, the Latin letter A is both one character and one code unit: "A".length === 1, but the Unicode character U+1D400 MATHEMATICAL BOLD CAPITAL A is one character but two code units: "퐀".length === 2. A better language would hide this ugly implementation detail from users, and string attributes such as length would be in terms of characters, not code units. Unfortunately, for historical reasons, ECMAScript forces programmers who want proper Unicode support to deal with raw UTF-16 directly.

Regex Tutorial - Unicode Characters and Properties
Saved by uncleflo on January 20th, 2015.
Unicode is a character set that aims to define all characters and glyphs from all human languages, living and dead. With more and more software being required to support multiple languages, or even just any language, Unicode has been strongly gaining popularity in recent years. Using different character sets for different languages is simply too cumbersome for programmers and users.

The Art of Web ~ JavaScript: Escaping Special Characters
Saved by uncleflo on December 10th, 2014.
Every programming language has it's special characters - characters that mean something special such as identifying a variable, the end of a line or a break in some data. JavaScript is no different, so it provides a number of functions that encode and decode special characters. If you're interacting between PHP and JavaScript you will also need to be familiar with the PHP functions for encoding and decoding special characters, which is why we've created this special tool for testing and comparing different functions.

UTF-8: The Secret of Character Encoding - HTML Purifier
Saved by uncleflo on December 10th, 2014.
Character encoding and character sets are not that difficult to understand, but so many people blithely stumble through the worlds of programming without knowing what to actually do about it, or say "Ah, it's a job for those internationalization experts." No, it is not! This document will walk you through determining the encoding of your system and how you should handle this information. It will stay away from excessive discussion on the internals of character encoding. This document is not designed to be read in its entirety: it will slowly introduce concepts that build on each other: you need not get to the bottom to have learned something new. However, I strongly recommend you read all the way to Why UTF-8?, because at least at that point you'd have made a conscious decision not to migrate, which can be a rewarding (but difficult) task.
