CCATP #836 — Jane Jordan on Blind Programming and Knitting

from Chit Chat Across the Pond

When you post online, and you know I'm following you, beware that if you say something interesting, you might be in danger of being asked onto one of my shows. That's what happened to blind knitter and programmer, Jane Jordan. In our conversation, she talks about how she keeps track of her knitting patterns using an abacus and her unique process for learning how to program. After Jane and I were done talking, I discovered that she has been listening to the NosillaCast since she got her first Mac, in June of 2005, only one month after the show got started. I thought we'd just bumped into each other on Mastodon. How crazy is that? If you'd like to connect with Jane, you can find her on Mastodon at @[email protected].
