Email mastodon+swiley@swiley.net (this makes all of my computers beep and turn on an indicator light and is always the fastest way to reach me.) I was on octodon a while ago but abandoned my account. I've never been a member of gab or parlor.
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 used to be a huge fan of Noam Chomsky

After his rejection of half the country as "the most dangerous group in the world" I thought maybe he's just getting old.
He seems to have either completely lost his mind or perhaps something deeper is wrong.
@icare4america Virginia is the best state by quite a margin.
They've put invaders in our capital and the daemons (my neighbors) in the north confuse it.
#nh governor advisor hiding information from voters until after the election.

@icedquinn IME they don't orgasm without penetration so I don't know how that works.
We are compiling a public list of companies applying vaccine mandates so that the public can know where to apply heat. If you work for a company or have information, email stopmedicaltyranny@protonmail.com with their policy document.
More info: action.stopmedicaltyranny.live
Spread this around. Help us cancel the mandates.
Biden is Virginia's best hope.

Of course officers and bankers bitch and moan about it. At the end of the day it doesn't matter though.
Fun fact: at least in Virginia there seam to be 0 (zero) consequences for not updating the address on your drivers license.
@NurseRatched We could always settle Antarctica I guess.
