lobbes: mircea_popescu: In trial-by-fire updates, it turns out that mp-wp appears to barf on unicode such as " 😀 "
lobbes: Now I've done some testing, and setting both the mysql server and the table to use the utf8mb4 character set allows the eating of such uniturds
lobbes: My question for you is, do you ~want~ the table/database utf8 charset extended to 4 bytes to store these things? Alternatively I guess I could just strip 'em out
trinque: heh, that was me.
trinque: nearly done with this experiment.
mircea_popescu: lobbes, by the uselessly vague "barf" do you mean it drops the remainder of the text in whatever chunk it sees it as part of ?

mircea_popescu: could you replace all instances of 4byte utf with [X ((Symbolic representation of Mother Goddess / Great Inca / USG's State Corporations has been removed.))] plox ?
diana_coman: lol, the phone users.

If I'm updating an article, it drops the entirety of additional content I was adding. Looks like your comment test behaves differently. In any case, it behaves strangely
