Hello World! Today, I have been a Scientist for exactly 44 years, 5 months, 1 week, 3 days (44.45 years)! And, it seems like I was born to believe in in nearly ALL Fields & Sub-fields of SCIENCE!
Though my science life is 44+ years old, my computer programming life began 39+ years ago, whereas my computer science life began 38+ years ago… I’m now RETIRED, and am no longer in any social networking services! ☺️
Welcome to my NEW Science blog hosted by WordPress! Long ago, I was an independent alpha & beta tester of WordPress, as well as, Joomla, but opted for WordPress, instead. Though my WordPress blog is new, my WordPress account is now over a decade old! ☺️
In this new blog site of mine, I plan on posting about my current & past science projects, and I’m currently working concurrent science projects despite I’m permanently disabled & totally BLIND! Definitely, I’m not allowing my disabilities ruin my lifelong passion of SCIENCE! ☺️
As usual, ALL comments are moderated! This is my choice and my preference. No, I’m NOT visiting any unsolicited links, no matter how it sounds through my screenreader. But, thanks to spammers that spammed me in eMail, comments on my blog posts are the only way to contact me, as I’ve decided against building a Contact Me page. When posting a comment to any of my blog posts, please note I DELETE all comments about financial investing, including cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin; I do add unsolicited links posted in comments to my blacklists to prevent myself from accidental visitation.
Unlike the previous blog sites I’ve managed, I plan to post the output of my computer programming language compiler as the first paragraph before the “Read More” link. This will save people from reading through my entire blog post on something they’re not interested in.
Thanks for reading my first post on my new blog site! Please share my blog links to your friends, coworkers & relatives! Have a Great Day!

Happily-Married, comfortably poor, permanently disabled and totally BLIND.
A Terrorism SURVIVOR that's still SURVIVING Terrorism + post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Scientist since 1977, Acoustician since 1979, Computer Scientist/Programmer since 1982, Seismologist since 1988, Criminologist (Behavioral Scientist) since 1992, and many more! Also, had worked in two civilian and one military virology labs in the USA between 1993 and 2003.
A Generation X, Filipino-American US expat, living in The Philippines, whom was naturally-born in Boston, grew up mostly in Seattle, some in Chicago, and have lived in Anchorage & San Francisco. Became permanently-disabled in 2003 due to health-related illness, ending my moonlighting career as an independent private investigator in the USA.
RETIRED independent developer of computing & electronics technologies after 35 wonderful years, including 20 wonderful years in GNU/Linux development & 8 wonderful years as an independent embedded systems developer of digital electronics.
Former speech synthesis systems developer of 30 wonderful years, specializing in foreign language phoneme-to-speech synthesis. Also was a beta tester of third-party software-based speech synthesizers.
Former FCC-licensed amateur radio operator of 20 wonderful years, beginning with 2m packet-radio & AmSat communications between Anchorage & Manila. Former member of Anchorage Amateur Radio Club and Mike & Key ARC in Seattle.
Learned 10-finger QWERTY touch-typing on a manual typewriter in 1980 at a US-based elementary school. Mastered 10-finger QWERTY touch-typing without looking at the keyboard in 1986. Now have osteoarthritis in both of my hands from all that touch-typing!
My primary computer programming language is C, which I learned in 1990. My secondary programming language is B.A.S.I.C., which I self-learned in 1982. Prior to my sight-loss, I used to program in LISP/CLISP and Prolog for my early development of artificial intelligence & machine learning programs.
Daily, to compensate/facilitate my sight-loss, I am actively using Apple iOS VoiceOver, Google Android TalkBack and Amazon Fire OS VoiceView screen-readers, in addition to my external Bluetooth QWERTY keyboard and sometimes, my Orbit Writer Braille keyboard, as HOBBIES.
