Hello, author here. Sorry if I am posting from a new account but I forgot the password to my old one (crisbal) and I didn't set a recovery email.

Let me know if you have any question.

Have you tried it in production? It would be nice to have a feedback from a DBA

There is not a single reason to try this in production, or even for a side project.

tldr; Emojis are Unicode entities, and as such, can be used within a SQL statement. Do not try this at work.
