That’s pretty funny! ���
Junior dev: Oh no what is that symbol? Let me examine the code closely to find out
Senior dev: The form still works. Fuck you.

Seeing this actually sent a small wave of dread through my body
Your Lemmy client appears to have a bug.
Why is it that whenever something is spitting out junk data, those specific characters are involved?
� is used to represent an invalid character, so it makes sense that it’d appear often when bad data is being rendered (or good data is being rendered improperly).
Everything is 0s and 1s to a computer. What a pattern of 0s and 1s encodes is decided by people–often arbitrarily. Over the years there have been attempts to standardize encodings but, for legacy reasons, older encodings are still valid.
The 0s and 1s that encode ’ in UTF-8 (a standardized encoding) are the same 0s and 1s that encode ’ in CP-1252 (a legacy encoding).
The � symbol is shown when the 0s and 1s don’t encode anything of meaning.
’
=e2 80 99
(3 bytes)
’
=e2
80
99
(3 separate bytes)
If you do this, you’re going to burn in a very special level of hell. A level they reserve for child molesters and people who talk at the theater.
The special hell.
