This article is a link to a dated but still relevant article from
one of my favorite tech writers – Joel Spolsky. Article is titled The Absolute Minimum Every Software Developer Absolutely, Positively Must Know About Unicode and Character Sets (No Excuses!) where he has this announcement to be made.
if you are a programmer working in 2003 and you don’t know the basics of characters, character sets, encodings, and Unicode, and I catch you, I’m going to punish you by making you peel onions for 6 months in a submarine. I swear I will.
In his usual tech-humor style he makes the read quite interesting. Check it out!
