It's 20 November 2023: Transgender Day of Remembrance.
I choose to honour the memory of David Kirk Ginder, a non-binary person who died by suicide on 27 June 2021, due to bullying by neo-nazi scum.
David was known online as byuu (later "near"), author of bsnes (later "higan") which is a free/opensource SNES emulator. This project even used it: https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/The-Silicon-Valley-quest-to-preserve-Stephen-12759775.php
Emulators are what inspired me to study computing in the 2000s. I studied byuu's work. It inspired many other people.
RIP byuu
