Tue Sep 19 09:14:31 EDT 2017 Slept from ten to seven. Woke briefly around four. High of seventy-five today. 50% chance of thunderstorms. Work: - Continue to help Rachel with ridiculously drawn-out workstation problems Done. - Move MW to their new cable modem Done. - Review Canon contract for CM No. Raining. Fifteen-minute walk. There's a dwarf peach tree, no more than knee high, growing next to 12 Mile Road, bearing dozens of credibly developed fruit. A few more of the trees are turning, particularly the honey locusts, some of which now glow yellow. Home: - SEMIBUG meeting at 7 PM Done. Huh. The language of the Yi people has an interesting character set, like an invented extraterrestrial language. The Unicode code points run from A000 to A4C6. http://blog.initprogram.com/2010/10/14/a-quick-basic-primer-on-the-irc-protocol/ Hexchat SEMIBUG had Brandon Werner, a blind programmer, come to demo the Orca screen reader. Interesting. Took a twenty-minute walk in the dark after I got home. Crickets and cicada and sweet-smelling night air. Lunch: donut, coffee, peanut butter toast Dinner: popcorn
