On Charsets

Found an interesting quote on the subject of charsets and how modern software handles them transparentlystill makes things difficult even though it's supposedly the 21st century now:

When it comes to charsets, software is still following the "ascii a stupid question, get a stupid ansi" rule...

Bonus points if you find that quote funny, too.
