@notjustbikes Unicode consortium in the 90s and 00s:
well, we can add the letter "A" three times for Latin, Greek and Cyrillic, but will unify the idiographs into single codespaces for Chinese, Japanese and Korean, even in cases when there are important differences between how they are written in each language.
Unicode consortium in the '20s: you get no "no cars" emoji, but here's a face with bags under the eyes.
Just noticed today that the electric Caltrain trains are 7 cars long. I seem to recall that the diesels were 5 cars long. Am I misremembering, or are the trains longer, the cars shorter, or both?
I keep feeling as if there is a magic thing I can do that will make people who don’t understand or care about the ongoing pandemic understand or care.
I don’t logically think there is, but it’s a sticky, recurring hope, then devastation.
It’s for both them & me. I know the risks of repeated infections and I want them to be safe from the soul-crushing experience of chronic illness I’m living. I also don’t want my health to get even *worse*.
Do they not know or do they not care?
