[Lex Computer & Tech Group/LCTG] Ada

Tue Oct 10 07:35:05 PDT 2023

Thursday is John Rudy Day because I have determined that it doesn’t conflict with all my numerous activities, avoids school holidays, exam season and times when people are hibernating.  The major purpose of the day is to sleep late, WHICH IS NOT THE SAME AS HIBERNATING.

I regret to say that my checking reveals that it conflicts with World Sight Day, National Farmers Day, National Pulled Pork Day, World Arthritis Day, National Gumbo Day and a few other things.

The explanation is rather mundane: the date is arbitrary, chosen in an attempt to make the day maximally convenient for the most number of people. We have tried to avoid major public holidays, school holidays, exam season, and times of the year when people might be hibernating.

Today is Ada Lovelace Day.  No idea why this day despite some degree of searching
