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.

@NurseRatched Regardless of who owns them electronic voting is bad.
It's not Dominion. It's electronic voting. If you go after the company without addressing the fundamental problem you'll just get the same problems again.

The things you rent, end up owning you.
@amerika Just don't allow them if you don't want them. They have uses, I use them.
This is an HN tier opinion.
@NurseRatched Just homeschool them.
@markinformer The US exports food and China imports it. Supply chain problems mean they'll be starving first.

Don't let #Apple's new products distract you from their global antitrust claims battle to maintain its subjugation over users globally. https://u.fsf.org/3gf

The commies sure went from "Believe All Women" to "Women Don't Actually Exist and if They do They Deserve to be Forcibly Sodomized in a High School Bathroom" pretty quickly.
I wonder which of their cheap slogans will be twisted into a way to abuse the innocent next.

there was actually some pretty good research on this that was presented during the FDA advisory panels review to give shots to 5-12 year olds....
It turns out that it's caused by the vaccines, but they approved it anyway. After all, we won't know how bad it is until we give it to a bunch of people.
