This is the first time I've seen a researcher have a mini CV with research papers that included emoji just for fun in their list.

Using "cvs import" to add code to a project is the most widely used misconception in CVS tutorials all over the place. While it seems like a simple way to initialize a new project (compared to creating an empty CVS tracked directory and "cvs add"ing to it), the resulting vendor branches can cause lots of worries later e.g. when trying to do a sane repository conversion in the direction of a third-generation version control system.
