Something doesn't have to be encoded in law to be structural. If a cop racially profiles a black man and harasses him and his boss doesn't discipline him, that's structural. The structure has failed to provide the right outcome.
Those are examples of individual racism. You cannot make a law that erases individual racism. You can make one that erases structural. If a department of cops are individually racist and therefore have the effect of profiling people regularly, there is simply no law that can prevent that.
This makes me wonder if there's anything that can be made to behave this way on Linux? I had an issue with Gnome freezing on me 100% last night with seemingly no recourse than a hard reboot over and over until a full rebuild. Something deeply embedded like Task Manager would have been great to try and resolve the issue. Switching virtual consoles was broken too and as far as I know there's no way to cut through a problem like this.
From the Mars Mission page it seems the non-peaceful aliens aren't Martian natives:
> The Aliens have originated from an unknown place in the cosmos, and are also searching for the crystals. In actuality, they are not from Mars
And the wiki suggests it's a soft sequel to the Life On Mars setting, making their place in LEGO canon easier to fit together.
It was 1Gb initially, then on their 1st birthday 2Gb and slowly growing daily, which seemed practically unlimited compared to other email that were offering 100Mb at the most? A quick look at an article[1] at the time (who claimed it was "outrageous") show Hotmail were offering 250Mb and Yahoo had just launched 1Gb to catch up.
that page lists the NEXT PAGE symbol ⎘ and I wonder if that couldn't do as an "external link" symbol in a pinch, seeing as I've never seen it used as a next page symbol before.
Fira Code appears to be one of them, at least that is used on the website. A handcrafted recommendation of mine would be to try Iosevka (https://typeof.net/Iosevka/ ) or Input (https://input.fontbureau.com/ ). I really like the narrow-width fonts, lets you fit more code on screen.
I'm in exactly the same boat. 40 years old and hate phone calls. But recently I've started to learn that the reason I hate them is because it always feels like I have to "prepare" for them and that's something I'm putting on myself. two things have started to change the way I think about them:
1) being in a call centre job where someone made it policy to stop reading the ticket before calling. this made it feel less important to have all the answers before calling and taught me that my preparation was only effective about 30% of the time. it also taught me how to politely stall or think out loud - the person on the other end in almost all cases is fine with the fact that you are human and don't know the answers immediately.
2) when I left that job I found my way into a completely different role, but one where my manager was a big proponent of making calls when things weren't working. For example if you've sent email after email waiting for someone, pick up the phone and call them - it triggers a completely different response. It's like they remember you're another human and not just a task to be done. You can quickly clarify any concerns or questions they have, and it genuinely helps move things forward. Couple this with lesson one, and not overthinking what I'm going to say it's made a big difference.
I still hate calling, but between those two lessons I've become much less hesitant to pick up the phone because it can really change the course of a relationship or interaction.
The plan is no new _features_ until 1.0. There was a good backlog of _bug_ fixes that were made since 0.9, so it made sense to push out an update with those, while continuing to work towards the eventual 1.0 release.
