And Amazon didn't list me as a co-author. It listed all of the other 10+ male co-authors, but specifically dropped my name and another co-author. Why? Because even back then, they said that tech-books with women's names don't sell as well.

5. As a Cancer patient, I regularly spend time in a Cancer hospital. A lot of the people there, many of them small children, are in a more precarious stage of their Cancer treatment.

There were new tests that could test for any sign that my tumor had metastisized and spread to other organs. I still get these, and other blood tests and CT scans. Still.

And I'm still working to regain by physical strength, after having been starved by that tumor for years.

Genuary 2026 Day 9: "Crazy Automaton"

Cellular Automaton can be pretty fun to play with: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_automaton

Instead of a crazy 'rule', I decided to do something a little crazy in the image: I sampled and inverted colors in pixels according to rule 30.

And now, we've seen what we anticipated...the cold blooded murder of a middle aged white mom while peacefully observing and recording.

The feds have spun this into her being some sort of domestic terrorist. Yeah, that's what they're saying.

And more! And more! Not just one, it's more and more

Yeah, I'm doing the best I can

What can you do? Persuade at least one person who is still on Twitter to leave. One person who hosts data on AWS to leave. Hit them in their profits. Hit them hard.

To my friends outside of the US...it's tough right now.

Really horrible. And yet, mostly 'normal'. It's really weirdly horrible.

Yes, our Federal government seems to have declared war against cities. WTF!

Yeah, it's crazy horrible.

My city? Our Mayor seems to have made a secret (possibly illegal) deal with the orange monster. We are working to get that public. It's horrific that the Mayor of San Francisco would make a private deal with a Tyrant!

I'm doing the best I can.

It did say "in any way". So I went with circles from a venn diagram and got the colors by randomly sampling pixels in an existing image: the red flower drawing I used yesterday.

Wow! I got stuck in this massive blackout, here in San Francisco, on my way home from a day at the art event. No functioning traffic lights at big intersections, so every thing was alternate feed like stop signs.

That would be been fine, except for all of the shut-down Waymos that real drivers had to get around.
