I don't see why that would matter. Sure, it was noticed on a browser but ultimately this article is about overlap between x86 assembly and a subset of the unicode standard. The browser isn't really involved.

#4Oh this is delightful!
x86 assembly isn't something I'm familiar with (and I should really get back to $dayjob), but I will mention the existence of emoji-test.txt [1] in case somebody wants to try and mine more executable sequences. It might be worth paying attention to the minimally-qualified, unqualified and component lines, which can be added and removed semi freely. No idea if they actually correspond to useful byte sequences.

It does look like a good "works on my machine" proof-of-concept, but are you going to copy those emoji from something other than a browser?
Probably wouldn't hurt to specify the text editor too and settings needed to match the intended file size as well.

Emoji are text. Which text editor/browser/settings should I be using to ensure I copy your reply accurately?
With the exception of (sigh) newlines, I surely hope your text editor accurately records the characters you paste into it. This job isn't different just because the characters are strange, multi colored ligatures.
Edit: As long as you work in UTF-8 that is, but you have to go out of your way to use any other encoding as an interchange format these days, even if alternative internal encodings aren't uncommon-

Some relatively recent emoji might not work in outdated browsers/operating systems. Generally, emoji font are regularly updated, but if you're using the stock browser (or Safari) on an outdated phone, you might not be able to render a lot of these emoji.
Missing emoji should still be copyable though, it just won't look as funny.

Why the Safari bash?
Every single one works. Apple keeps their emoji list pretty up to date.

Apple doesn't keep their emoji list up to date. Apple invents new emojis, implements them, and once enough people are using it, unicode will pretty much have to incorporate it. They're pretty much to emojis what google is to web standards.
