The emoji are fine imho. Nothing childish or unprofessional about that.

Completely agree. Specifically (emoji fans take note) it attempts to force a certain mood, when your writing should do that for you. Emojis are fine for adding some visual associaton at the end of text blocks or descriptive paragraphs, or used for a pictographic demonstration of something (even humour). Just gormless facial expressions at the end of everything is just simperingly weak communication.

#8Neat find. What could cause the calibration offset to be zero? Certainly it did not come this way from the factory. Any abuse/misuse of the controller would not cause it either.
Ah, I suspect this was a firmware update that got borked somehow. Maybe the cable was disconnected before the update could complete.

Can we not critique pet peeves and nitpick style? This is how I interpret the guideline, "avoid generic tangents"; if critiquing the style of a piece doesn't help us to understand it better (as is sometimes the case, but isn't here), I don't think it's worth discussing on this forum (as it promotes snide conversation rather than curious conversation).
In my experience working remotely, using lots of emoji is a professional expectation. Kind of like how ASL speakers are more expressive with their faces and bodies than English speakers, because they aren't employing vocal tone. Using lots of emoji prevents misunderstandings of tone (a frequent and avoidable source of bad feelings) and promotes camaraderie. Nothing unprofessional about that, but it may be from a different professional culture than you're familiar with.

> childish
I hate the use of face/body emoji, but my anecdotal experience is that the biggest users are age 40+, and younger people at least tend to be more creative with emoji.
