I answered a random C# stackoverflow question about why string.length returns the value it does with some rationale defending code units instead of "characters" - basically, I typed up a defense of D's string-as-array behavior.
In Ruby `length` returns the number of unicode characters and `bytesize` returns the number of bytes. I prefer this use of the names.
