Slept from around eleven to seven without waking.
Sunny today. High of sixty-one.
I forgot to watch the debates last night.

Work:
- Work on POSIX shell notes
A bit.
I'm not feeling especially motivated today.
Fifteen minute walk at lunch. Very pleasant. Saw a small woodpecker, a dragonfly, a seagull, and a blue jay. A couple of days ago, only a few of the trees had started to change. We got maybe our first real frost last night. Today, nearly half of the trees have started changing.

Home:
- Think about HTML5 canvas AJAX display
Done, I guess.
16 x 9 screen.
Times eight = 128 x 72 blocks/"pixels"/characters.
If the block size is 8 x 8 real pixels, that's 1024 x 576. Seems OK.
Maybe 16 x 16 pixels per block would be better, even with fewer blocks.
16x * 6multiplier * 16pixels = 1536 real pixels (96 blocks)
9y * 6multiplier * 16pixels = 864 real pixels (54 blocks)
Yeah.
No doubt we can find a good 16x16 bitmap font too.
