If you’d like to learn to program I would consider the SICP [1] more or less the peak of American CS pedagogy (at least as far as beginners go) along with “The Practice of Programming” once you get through that.
I play ukulele, I’m ok at reading music and decent at improv. I learned from Walter Piston’s “Harmony” and some of Adam Neely’s videos.
My main phone is a pine phone so if I don’t pick up when you call the battery is probably dead, the modem is probably dead, or I’m currently swearing at calls/pulseaudio/alsa. I’d strongly recommend sending an email instead.
Dispite what my web page says I’ve stopped uploading my scratch projects to GitHub once I started to understand the basics of collaboration with git. I was using the flamegraph as gamification/motivation but it doesn’t work as well with feature branch/squash merge workflows so I just keep most things on my VPS until I’m happy with publishing updates.

I give it two months before we see headlines like "Why You Should Still Get A COVID Vaccine Even If It's Ineffective / 10% Effective."
@ivanrancic@mastodon.social Neat, I didn't know about that OS. I'll probably stick to Fluxbox on PMOS though.
@LukeAlmighty If your screen is locked you can't see the ads.

Modern "SMART" phones are so useless, you cannot even play a videa with locked screen. (Screen being the most energy consuming part, as well as light polution, when you just want some podcast while trying to sleep)

SHOCKER: Red Cross is warning all Americans that Covid-vaccinated humans are INELIGIBLE for donating plasma… does that mean their blood and organs are also contaminated with spike proteins? https://www.newstarget.com/2021-09-05-red-cross-warning-covid-vaccinated-ineligible-donating-plasma.html

@freemo At least we know your followers aren't glowing in the dark.
@freemo And still zero votes for BRL-CAD with OpenSCAD in the minority.
