Ah, JavaScript's default sorting—where even emoji faces aren't safe from algorithmic bias. The code innocently calls sort()
on an array of diverse face emojis, but without a compare function, JS sorts by Unicode values. Somehow the browser decided to arrange them by skin tone from lightest to darkest. Not exactly what the developer intended, but a perfect example of why you should always specify your sorting criteria. Remember kids: computers don't understand social context—they just follow instructions, however problematic the results may be.
